Riffin on "Hark The Herald/Angels We Have Heard On High" (A 3 Camera Shoot)
This is a 3 camera shoot video with external audio (Reaper) recorded
Lighting (non trivial)
1) Set up a 3 point lighting configuration: Key, Fill & Back
2) Put a spot light on the Nutcrackers
3) So the challenge with the lighting was to have the 3 lights positioned in relationship to the 3 cameras so that the "light" fixture did not get reflected on the guitar - took a bunch of tests
Video Editing Tips
1) In order to sync up the 3 video files and the audio file I do a "Hand Clap" before each take. In the video editor I'm able to sync up the 3 video files and the audio file in the timeline.
2) I keep the takes to be under 10 minutes to avoid "audio drift". My recordings start to have noticeable audio drift after about 10 minutes.
3) Jump Cuts: There are a few places in the song where I am repositioning my hand on the fret board from the 1st fret to the 5th fret. In the video editor I do a frame by frame view of moving to the 5th fret, I locate the frame where my hand is leaving the fret board and insert the "cut". So when the video is played, the jump cut is during the repositioning.
Reaper (after alot of playin around, this is where I landed)
1) Recorded Mono with an sm81
2) High Pass EQ with a "Notch" cut at about 300Hz
3) Double Tracked (copied the Mono Track)
4) Sent the tracks to a Reverb Bus
5) Put the tracks in a Reaper Envelope to render in Stereo
6) Pan Left 75%; Pan Right 75%
