Here is a music video I just completed.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=oXvJ8UquYoo

It was shot in November 2010 and just finished post a week ago.

Let me know what you think.

(shout-out to indietalk for teaching me pretty much all I know about filmmaking and made this music video possible).

Uhm...I don't even know what to say. That was not only a great video, but one of the best I've ever seen. Wow!

Bravo!

Note to others: watch this on the biggest screen you can.

Well thank you so much, CamVader. I cannot tell you how much your words mean - especially after slaving over this thing for the amount of time and energy I have put into it, and finally releasing my baby into the dangerous world of the critic. To hear back something like that just makes my year!

Yes! And the best sound system available to you :)
 
Very cool! Very impressive! Very well done!

You certainly know how to use editing to your advantage.

Nice song and the music video stands above many others since you employed a short narrative device (instead of just having random scenes intercut together, which is what most music vids do.)

A small point: I didn't find it too long but considering the attention span and patience of the younger generation, would it be advisable to shorten the initial beginning? Just from a marketing point of view.

Anyway, i enjoyed it tremendously!
 
Yes!

Also, I was a big fan of the Zombieland titles in the beginning of that movie and I used that sort of interaction of title with action on screen in the end - notice it?

Thank you so much!!! That means a lot!

Yes, we made a shorter one without the story in the beginning and without the credits would be best for any airplay on TV - but we all wanted to make an extended version with everyone in it in the beginning for fun and I also wanted something without music over it to sound design.
 
This is awesome!

I had a similar idea for a video where a desaturated world becomes color, though it wasn't a music video, and whatever I would've come up with would've been blown out of the water by this. Oh well.

Great work anyways. :)

I missed that, but I was doing okay keeping up to this point. :cool: I'll be checking that out, though. I have learned so much from examples like this.
 
Thank you, guys!

Nice work! Was there funding in place or was it one of those "come work on a fun project" indie ventures? Either way, it's a slick production!

Completely funded by myself and my own equipment. Everyone involved worked on it like you said "come work on a fun project".

Wow, that makes this even that more impressive!! Congrats on a wonderful masterpiece! You should be very, very, proud!!!
 
Very slick, very good.

Your location says California but unless the paint fumes have gone to my head that was supposed to be London, right?

:)
 
Thanks so much guys!

Yeah I shot it after another gig I had in England - the band is based out of the UK but they travel internationally.

The star at the end was obviously Hollywood, as was the diner sequence in the end (notice you never see the guy's face - only his uke!) and it was a different person walking and pulling out the uke :P
