Walky Talky: Rough

November 25, 2003

Rough

A very rough cut of one of the dances from this year's Marching Boys is now up.

It's pretty slipshod, which is mostly laziness on my part, although I'll hide behind the dismaying fact that, while we have footage of about 7 runs through, there are still sections of this dance for which there is no adequate coverage. Still, the shoddiness may be slightly less obvious in the uploaded MP4, which is so brutally compressed you can't see what the fuck's going on anyway. Despite which it's still an 18MB download.

I'm really selling it, aren't I?

Overload will follow, then I might revisit this one. Also, at some stage I have to see about getting some clips done of some of the older stuff. I don't have tapes of most of that, but apparently Kym has several. Don't hold your breath (as if).

In other news, work sucks. I hate my life. And I'm starving.

I'll post a proper entry later. Possibly.

You are one of the few people who will understand why watching that clip gives me butterflies. Holy crap; hand-eye coordination!

Actually I'm not sure I do. Was there a bicycle hiding away in there somewhere?

OK, I lied about the proper entry. I'm off tomorrow on another aerobics thing, so it may be a while. If it's any consolation, I've started work on the second part of "Infidelity Quartet"; don't hold your breath.

Out of interest, did it end up looking like a shapeless sweaty tangle that wouldn't look out of place in some dodgy Vietnam movie, or was your operation a success?

It was a success. On a strictly temporary basis, of course.
