Amateur Performance videos

 

Okay so here is a rough performance video I made for a song I composed with a friend. Us (the performers) being shown signifies the fact that this song has been sung and composed by us. There is no camera movement, nor a change of shots in a sequential pattern-of which I am well aware. However, since the target audience mainly comprised of fellow students, they did not mind the exclusion of these major components, and enjoyed watching us perform our new song. No significant editing has been done as it wasn't consider essential by me at that time. This is perhaps one of my very first performance videos, which is why I felt it necessary to have it posted in order to realize my current technical level, and hence try my best to enhance it with the continued passage of time.



Here is another performance video, and it is much better than the first one considering the fact that slight panning on both the performers (that being my partner and I) has been effectively done to signify who the main vocalist is, and the instruments involved. It does well to address the audience as to what the musicians were feeling when composing this song, as emphasis on their expressions during the video has been done in order to convey the mood of the song as shown by the performers in question. However, the camera maintains it stationary position for quite long periods of time, giving enough reason for the audience to believe that effort has not been put into making the video, making it thoroughly amateur.
