Here's the music video we just finished. It was all shot on 2 7D's, using only natural light. All the slo-mo was shot 60fps.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
 
That is really nice. The video editing matches the song perfectly. The speed works really well with the music too, and I feel that it actually enhances the experience.

I'd be extremely pleased with that.

Now I'm off to learn more about that band! (P.S. you forced me to stop being a lurker after all this time, and register to comment!)

It looks a lot like the style of the old Magical Mystery Tour films by the Beatles. Also, that's one big goddamned banjo. Very good work.

Very nice. Has a very Tom Waits feel to the music.

B&W plus slow-mo in the tall weeds holds the story together real well.

Did you do any close-ups of the picking in real-time for experiment?.

Thanks Adam! That's quite a compliment!

We did, unfortunately we had trouble syncing the shots. Playback on location just wasn't loud enough, so much of the performance timing was off.

Great video, would have been nice if it was a touch more contrasty, otherwise that's a really nice job.
Thanks! Yeah, the grey sky helped add to the mood, but without any other lighting or bounce everything is a bit flat.

Since I don't do video, I can't give you any kind of qualified feedback.
I will say it's visually very appealing and a joy to watch.
Thanks! I appreciate it!
