    Great video. Nice storyline about how the Spanish Dancer appears each time the guitar case is opened and finally, at the end, she takes the place of the guitarist Ricardo. Excellent song. Muy bien. Genara

    Vincent, very nice lighting. I like your use of particulate matter, you don't see a lot of guys who use fog and dust in there lighting schemes these days. I also like how the practicle lights in the background of scene where used to light it. Very skilled lighting and grading. I am curious what camera you shot this with?

    I do notice a slight weird strobbing in the clip and I wonder if that is a Vimeo thing or how you got it to Vimeo, if feels like I'm watch 22 or 23 frame video or a few frames are getting dropped. In a weird way I kind of like it, similarly how I use to love the 18 frame look of Super8.

    Lastly, I think you could pic a much more impressive thumbnail picture. I debated whether I was going to watch it because the image didn't grab me.

    Well done, you are definitely a shooter.

    Thanks for the comments Steve, I hope you like the new thumbnail. We shot on the RED which some feel can't handle the haze but it felt right for the scene, glad you agree. If you're referring to the last scene on frame rate, we did shutter down up on the mountaintop during the sunset as both a technical and stylistic choice, which gives a more staccato feel. Again, many avoid shuttering down on the RED, but we felt the hyper real shutter and movement of the piece complemented the surreal nature of the natural lighting and concept.

    Vincent, you are a real shooter and I've watched the video at least 5 times and I just love it. It's one of those contageous things. The song is wonderful, the dancer is great, the choregraphy, lighting great. The RED camera looks nice but I still feel throughout the video that it's dropping frames or I'm not quite sure how to phrase it. But in a wierd way I kind of like it for this particular video. Anyways, it doesn't matter what camera you use, you are going to make it look amazing. It's you, not the gear that is the talent here.
