DJ Gig Log | High School Dance

Recent footage from a high school dance. Shows my setup and some transitions throughout the night, nothing too brag but doing some mixing the entire night. My phrasing and mixing was not on point and I'm still practicing :) !

Great job. Did you ever consider bringing the lights out from behind you? It seemed like a lot of the gobos were blocked by you and the audio gear. It might give you a more powerful dancefloor effect.

You're right on with that comment. Hindsight is always 20/20, although I do like being right on the edge of the stage up close and personal with the crowd though!

[sainifabulous]

ur mixing was pretty good alot better den some djz i see

how did that shooting star song work out for you i never tried that song?

[musicaledge]

Thanks man. The song went over only OK. Too new and clubbish for the high school crowd.  The crowds I work with in the smaller communities in the Midwest like the low BPM hip hop.

[DJhattymarris]

you kick ass bro - your mixes are beatmatched and in phrase - it looks like your doing an awesome job playing the crowd.

[peterwo2e]

thats great you look like you are well hook up the video was very nice, but may i sugest for future gigs you place a light shining on you. you are the center of the whole gig and maybe cause of the video camera but you seem to disapear in the dark. great job!
