This is the new EBGB music video Issues and Scar Tissue from the album Circling the Drain . The video was shot by Bryan Burch from Digital Design House in Orlando Florida . The Camera used was an canon Xh-A1 . Also used was the Letus extreme 35mm adapter with minolta lenses . the letus extreme 35mm adapter allows you to get a very shallow depth of field for that film look we all want . We also used the Stedicam merlin in the grave yard or cemetary shots . Much of this was filmed in downtown orlando at night .
The letus extreme 35mm adapter has a 1/2 step of light loss . Using the letus extreme gives a dv or digital video user the ability to get the film look while still shooting digital . The canon xh-a1 uses a 72mm adapter and we use the minolta adapter . Many use the canon or nikon but because of price vs quality we use the minolta . Shooting a music video with the Canon xha1 a cost effective way of getting those quality shots while still working within a budget .
Many people ask if the hv20 , hv30 or hv40 canon is a good alternative for the indie film maker . The answere is yes . Those cameras shoot hd video and for the price are very nice . You can also purchase a Letus 35mm adapter as well as many use diy 35mm adapters .
Many people have commented that ebgb sounds a little like eminem . The sample that he uses for this song is from evanescence . Amy Lee the lead singer for evanescence can be heard through out the song . The name of the song is Issues and scar tissue .
This is some great footage and proves what can be done with the canon xh-a1 , the letus extrem 35 mm adapter and a very talented artist .
Also I noticed on my youtube stats that a lot of the hits are coming from the Red Hot Chili Peppers - Scar Tissue searches . Anyone who finds this video because of the search for the red hot chili peppers I am sorry .
