Ray is responsible for setting up the cameras and other than utilizing a Gopro with the fish eye lens for the side shots I could not comment on make or model of his primary camera.
And yes, ambient sound of the stage monitors recorded by the video camera set up behind us is not representative of the actual sound produced on the mains.
Still beats the crap out of some shaky cell phone footage, yes ?
Tough gig ?
Other than the heat being well over 100, and I got up at 04:45 worked 8 hours in the hospital before hand, not at all.
Paid in cash by the
LADIES AUXILIARY before we ever started playing ...
And too note, the " crowd " is widely dispersed into the shade & water toys, up on the hill as well as to an parking area to stage left, and swimming to stage right that are not visible in the camera angles.
As the sun sets, and we got closer to fireworks time the crowd grew and moved down closer.
I knew from last year it would be this way.
( and on a Monday afternoon to boot )
I had the day before constructed two 36" tall tables to set our three-way mains up on.
Had to project the sound way up on top of that hill as well as left and right where the shade / people were.
Monitors too as we were "broadcasting" to the fire crew behind us as well.
Our technology is growing on pace with the band and our mission I feel, at a slow but acceptable rate, available time and finances all considered.
Really look forward to a good size indoor gig so I can break out the fog and lights.
