This is a cover of the song way back from the 90's you'll probably recognize from the radio. This video features Sophie Bird on violin, a doctoral student of violin at Indiana University.

This video was filmed with a Canon T3i DSLR in combination of the 18-55mm kit lens and the 50mm 1.8 prime lens. All the audio was recorded using the older version of the Zoom H4. I use Adobe Premiere Pro and Logic Pro 8 to put these videos together.

  • Fantastic! Do you make the final track first, then match the video to it?

  • @Josiahjjr Well, I usually record the video while I'm recording the individual tracks. I usually can't nail everything in one take, so I set the camera up at different angles for each take, and match it up to the final take since I'm playing the same thing each time.
