strange boys - who needs who more

this is a music video i edited this semester.  it was shot with three different HD cameras at the Alamo Ritz by the production company i intern for, Super!Alright!  this was for a documentary series called Dead Venues Live for delllounge.com.  The idea is to have current Austin bands play music in the locations where popular venues were in the past, regardless of what the location is currently being used for.  The Ritz was a rockin' punk rock venue before it was a movie theatre.  

It was a very interesting editing exercise because there were six takes, each with 3 different cameras.  This made for 18 different shots to choose from.  My first step was to synch them all up and make multi-clips.  

Anyhow, I suggest applying for an internship with this company if you are looking for one.  I didn't always get to work on cool projects like this one but I did learn quite a bit about how some companies in the industry work these days.  Really quick turn around times from shoots to final cuts and most all of their work is made just for putting on the internet.  

You can check out more of the Dead Venues Live series on delllounge.com and see how it is not just performances but mini-documentaries as well.
