Hey Will,

Yeah, it stuttered only in a couple of places for me as well.

I would agree with the others - you need to pay him - that's the professional thing to do.

Hey Brad,

Some great advice you've received here.

Hey Bill,

Looks like you've got some good footage of the band performing - and some good footage of people enjoying their performance.

Here's a few random thoughts:

Yep, like John said ... Australia is in PAL-land - hence the 50i.

Hey Luke,

My vote would be for "Romantic On" - I laughed out loud at the end. Great stuff!

"Water On" is cool as well. Nice opening shot too - very nice.

Cheers,

Matthew.

Hey Craig,

What about putting the 1 minute of footage inside a nested sequence that sits within the full 8 minute clip - then import the 1 minute sequence into AE?

I haven't tested my A1 out with 12db gain yet so can't tell you how it performs.

Really nice clip.

I agree with most of what has been said already - i.e. the 'goldfishing' moments where people are talking but we don't hear them.
