Check out our new video! It is a quick interview plus a great live acoustic performance from Allan of the band Stringer Lake.

A haunting but beautiful song... you may hit replay a few times!

Hi Brent,

I loved how crisp the footage was, great colours (or lack thereof!) and shot selection. Great location too. You brought out the texture of that stone wall so well.

I particularly enjoyed the tracking shots during the interview and performance, but did find occasional imperfections in the movement and some of the crossfades a little distracting.

The audio quality was excellent throughout both interview and performance. If you don't mind my asking what were you using to record on/into?

Hi Henry,

Thanks for the feedback. The playback on Vimeo isn't always the smoothest and I did notice a difference in the smoothness from the original file to the vimeo one (original is better), cross fades are also much smoother on the original.

As for the audio, I recorded the speaking with one of my Sennheiser MKH 50's, plugged into my Marantz PMD-661.

For the song, I had him sing into my AKG C 414 B-XL II and had the MKH 50 on the guitar. These were both plugged directly into the Marantz PMD-661.

Footage was filmed with EX3 and EX1.

Hi Brent,

Have had similar issues with Vimeo on occasion. Very frustrating when it happens. Thanks so much for all the info. Really helpful.
