Recorded LIVE at Martin G's 259th Weekly Thursday night jam session at Hennesey's in Dana Point. This version has greatly improved audio over the previous version, in that last time we set up only room mics and a lot of room chatter was picked up from the patrons. This time we opted to add a direct audio feed from Martin's sound board so we could eliminate the background talking while the piece is being played.
As you can see from the video quality, lighting is still an issue, and shows up in the form of a hazy-looking appearance, though part of this is also due to the fact that this file is a compressed video format (WMV - Windows Media Video) that allows it to stream more efficiently on the internet. While the AVI version (the full, uncompressed version) does look better, it too is still negatively impacted by the lack of proper lighting. Unfortunately, this is often the case in a bar or tavern setting where there isn't a formal stage with adequate lighting, and can even be a problem when there IS proper lighting and it's simply not being used in a way that enhances what the camera captures. Sometimes, what makes a show look good, lighting-wise, is not what makes a video look good from the same perspective.
Both my videos are gaining views ever so slowly, and I have to say, it's pretty cool ... thanks to all of you who're doing this and watch my videos, I appreciate it very much !!!
