Joshua James Interview with Michele Yamazaki

I interviewed the accomplished singer-songwriter Joshua James after his impassioned performance at the Intersection in Grand Rapids, MI, October 1, 2009. I've included a few clips of the show. The show was outstanding - full of dramatic folk, soul and rock (and Joshua gave me permission to use any video that I shot). The video was shot on a Vado HD and it was my first time using the camera. The footage looked great unless I was zoomed in, where it looked blurry. It was quite dark in the club as well, which didn't help with video noise. I used Boris Continuum Complete's Unsharp Mask, BCC Levels Gamma and BCC DeGrain in areas to improve the quality. Edited in Adobe Premiere Pro CS4. Shot handheld with no enternal mic... hey this was a spur of the moment thing!
