Tobias the Adequate
Well... So... I'm still working on the video for Tobias the Adequate and I'm discovering that editing live video is a lot harder than working with a plan. I'm finding I'm needing a lot of things I don't have. Close-up shots, crowd shots, and a boom mic.
I think I've finally gotten into doing what I can with the footage I have though and I finally have something like a plan to finish up the rest of it. Here's sorta a rough first-pass of the first few minutes. Any input would be majorly appreciated.
About a 5M Quicktime movie of Tobias the Adequate
Okay. I see several things to fix already. That weird edge flicker at the beginning and the first part of 'The women are laughing for different reasons than the men' is missing and needs to be put back in. The audio is rough but I think it's as good as I'm gonna be able to get and so far at least I've been able to cut out all of the revving trucks, airplanes, cel phones, screaming children and other weird background noises that are around. I've also developed some new talent for working WITH ambient noise. The 'Theme Song' is completely unique one of a kind mixing music from Matthew's show, the parades at Ren Faire, and the people laughing in his crowd. There's also some great ambient noise in the introduction of 'The Coat of Loki' with these deep horns sounding mystically in the background as he talks about it. Also, the ringing of a bell when he's talking about the ship's bell. So... I'm learning to make the noise my friend rather than my enemy. Or perhaps it's just 3AM on a work night and I've lost my mind.
Anyhow. I think I know how to finish up the rest of it and get it done in a day or two. Any input, suggestions, feedback, etc would be much much much appreciated. Also... Tobias the Adequate is AKA
roon just for those that don't know!
