- 2/18 7:52 am - Really strong camera work. Love that the camera cuts to particular shots at unique times in the performance, like the guitar solo. The audio sounds clear and crisp. The performance flows nicely, and it's clear that there was some thought in the direction to bring the performance to life. Nice work!
Judge 1
Positives: Thank you for allowing me to view and judge your video. Stage productions are one of the hardest things to video record because you don't control anything - including the lighting, colors, or audio. I think you did very good work. I really like the many different camera perspectives. Perfect super close up of the guitar playing at the perfect time. Great framing. very nice editing and exposures.
Improvements: I might have used the further back camera less.

Positives: -loved close ups of guitarist -nice job taking wide shot to show lighting effects
Improvements: -close up of singer would have been a nice addition -crowd reaction if possible would be a great shot because they were so interactive
Judge 3
Positives: The Framing of the guitar solos and positioning of the cameras were great. placing them to allow the lighting along with the performers become a character.
Improvements: Definitely needs MORE cutting, you have great camera angles and a lot of them. I think it could have had more cuts to feel the crazy!! Maybe one of the cameras following the singer, or the camera that followed the guitarist could switch off and follow the singer for a couple bars.
Judge 4
Positives: Good locations of camera angles; Cameras seem to be in good position to capture the action; Great use of fog & haze to bring out the lighting beams; Good sound mix between guitar and vocals.
Improvements: I would consider some quicker cuts to align with the music; Stage camera on the side could move around a bit from low to high angle shots to give the director some choices. Overall well done.
