FaireMusic (2002)

This is the original "Renaissance Day" video I announced back in 1999 on my MikeVideo Page. "Back in the day", my VHS videos were either half hour or hour shows, so I assumed "Renaissance Day" was going to be at least an hour. (It's 30 minutes long, in three 10 minute segments on YouTube)

I shot the footage in this "promotional" 4 min. 44 sec. "Music From the Renaissance Faire" video in 1999. The actual "Renaissance Faire" was made using footage from both 1999 and 2004 to tell the "story" of the Queen's arrival to a small English countryside town in the Elizabethan era. This first video, made in 2002, and streamed from my website as a really shoddy looking "realvideo" file, had almost been forgotten.

However, while looking for video footage on old DVDs I found the .avi and .mpg files which look pretty good. I'm uploading the .mpg file to YouTube. This utilizes some of the same footage as in "Renaissance Day", but the footage here is not edited. (There is a lot of shakycam during the bagpipists' duo.) So you get to see Glenn Morgan's performance in it's entirety.

I didn't even know I had a good copy of this video.
