A New Proposal

Cyborg Turkey nailed me with a brick of unoriginality right in the head. I felt uninspired and so now I have a new proposal. I am wanting to make a new cover video of the song "Angry Again" by Megadeth. After looking at many cover videos on youtube with Robert, we discovered that little creativity was used in these videos, and that musically, most of these videos were off-key from the original recording. This is an error I intend to correct.

What I am thinking is not one video, but several videos put into one with some neat little special effects. One effect we discussed was where multiple videos will overlap each other, intended for the guitar solo portion of our show. Another idea I came up with was to have three screens going at once (possible four, with the fourth being my friend Ryan playing drums to the song), and as the song progresses, the screens will split, switch places, and physically overlap each other, adding a visual appeal to the song (certainly not that the original video was not pretty enough). For the background, we talked about a black screen with other mild effects going on. This was considered the best idea because it will cause the most seizures as possible (kidding).

There are roughly 6 weeks left in the term, so for a time line I am thinking an even split:

For the first two weeks, I will be mastering the song from front to back to ensure perfection in the video.

Next, I will film each portion of the video as quickly, yet diligently as possible seeing as how we only get one week with a video camera.

Finally I will spend the rest of my time formatting my videos (including audio) in final cut pro. I am hoping to be able to use the labs in the RVTV building, because they are pretty cool- two monitors are better than one, especially in this kind of situation.

I am hoping Robert will be a little more pleased with this proposal, because I know for a fact that I am. To any and all readers, hope you enjoyed reading!
