Too bad John Waters couldn't bring back Smell-O-Vision for this video.
Good technical concept, good performance.
Agreed. An MTV friendly... unfriendly video. A proper pop vid but with the risque kudos it needs. Camera move works well on this and the action in the loos doesn't feel too contrived. Nothing groundbreaking but very nice indeed. Good work.
I agree kreeger with the 'nothing groundbreaking' comment...
However, this video is groundbreaking in the proceedure we used to shoot it. Due to a miniscule budget we shot this without the luxury of motion control.
Some people are surprised to learn we built only 1 cubicle, used 1 camera, and constructed an ancient rigging method which has been out of commission for centuries. I must say it worked like a treat... maybe you guys already figured this, but if anyone has similar concepts and wants to acheive near 'motion control' on a no budget vid, let me know and i can forward the details of how we did it.
Leeroy La Rouche, you truly do rock. I actually think this promo is good anyway without knowing how different it is to your other stuff but I love how much you get off on finding cooool solutions to technical problems. If you're free next friday (30th March) we're doing some stuff at the V&A and I'm playing around with record players and camera. Would love to see you there man. Otherwise would lov to see you anyhow, take it easy man, jim lf
