Hm, I just took a look at The Last Waltz. Lots of 10-30 second shots, some moving, some fairly static.

Interesting. I don't have any 4k cameras so it would have to be done with 1920x1080 source. I've done zooms in post before but there is a loss, so I...

I'd like to say that I actually had less of a problem with the lighting situation, the noise in the zooms, etc. It's not great but for some reason it...

I think all of your suggestions would make a better video overall. But for selling a band to venue talent buyers it kind of is about just capturing...

Without wishing to sound harsh, neither does this video and neither is any video filmed live under these circumstances. As RL_Sensei has stated...

I see your point now. It's more about the technical aspect of video production itself and more on the editing side.

The band has its own studio where we can make a video under controlled conditions. There's even space for an audience of friendly invited guests....

How about using a particle effect? To get the variety in the width of the line vary the size of the particles or possibly the number. To get the...

Add the same circle as a second layer on top of the first that's just a little scaled up or has a little bit of a stroke or blur to it where you do...

I know how to animate the circle so that it draws itself, but is there a method to make the circle look like it's drawn from ink (uneven width, wider...

Tried posting a reply here a couple of times now but it won't seem to post! Anyway, thanks RL_Sensi for sharing the videos, they were really...

Thanks for the info BSG. Yeah, the conditions don't sound great. Seems to me the venue is mismanaged and probably not earning enough to justify...

There's a few ways but what I'd do and which is likely to be the easiest is: Find the illustration of a circle and use "write on" effect. You can...

Thanks for the insight, BSG. Even worse condidtions than I'd anticipated. This gives the band an idea of how they present themselves and (to a...

May I ask how can the ink-like circle be drawn as in the beginning of the video?

can be made in either. just apply a heavy blur and scale up to the beat while you keyframe the blur back to normal focus. All the graphic elements...

It was an open mic night with a bare bones crew already stretched to the limit of their capabilities and running behind schedule because of some...

Yeah, i'm hoping to get some more info as well regarding that gig. If it's a "come film a live performance for the first time here" type of thing,...

Whilst taking on board your comments RL_Sensie, I wonder whether boulder soundguy could give us a bit of context. Yep, we all want to do as...

Hi there, First - let me start by saying: "I have filmed live performances on low budged venues, so i feel your pain". That being said. I...

Another good piece. really feel like we're getting to know you guys. Personally I didn't like the grading - I found it all rather too dark and...

Thanks guys!

Thanks for the reply, OK that has sorted that out for me. I thought that might be the case, also I have noticed that grabbing a still image from...

The quality is ALWAYS better when you shoot 4K and downscale to HD, because you are essentially squeezing a pixel to 4x it's size. That has the...

I made a tutorial video last year on how to create this exact effect in Premiere Pro for beginners. https://youtu.be/ycqNcYfrf5g Premiere Pro...

I doubt you can simply use an app to do something like this. This would be quite a complicated task.
