Mr Blue Sky

As White Star Liners have now completed their EP "You Can Do It, We Can Help" [iTunes], they put together a rather fun launch gig in Brighton and asked me along to shoot it. More details on exactly how this zero-budget multi-camera bodged-together live shoot went down in a future post, for now here's the first officially released video from the gig, White Star Liners performing a cover of ELO's Mr Blue Sky. Enjoy.

White Star Liners: An Introduction

Not to long ago we shot a short video interview for White Star Liners, along with some footage of them recording a new EP release (due later this year), cut that together with some donated gig footage and we have a nice little video giving an introduction to the band. Check it out below..

White Star Liners an up and coming indie band from the Brighton area of Sussex in the UK, and good friends of ours, have set up a Vimeo account and have uploaded a load of recent gig footage that I cut together for them, so check out their channel; http://vimeo.com/channels/whitestarliners

I've also embedded one of my favourite songs from their album "The Rural Electrification" below.

White Star Liners - Tyre Pressure Was The Least Of His Worries (Live)

Helped out some friends of mine by cutting together some recent gig footage for them, taken from a couple of camcorders (one 16:9, one 4:3, yay, both auto-exposing, double yay), I synced and cut together the two angles, applying a little re-framing (or a lot on the 4:3 stuff), and the odd bit of motion, as well as a bit of a grade (within FCP) to take the edge off the DV footage and some of the blown out areas.

I've got the rest of the gig sat on the work drive as I work on building videos for each song for them, so they could well upload some more at some point.

For those of you in the Liverpool area, they're playing The Cavern, this weekend (23/24 May), check out their website for more details White Star Liners (www.whitestarliners.co.uk)
