I looked at many different videos of bands that were made to promote either a gig or an album. However, After being allowed to shoot an interview in the TV studio in college, I decided to produce an interview of our band and have that be my video for this project. I also wanted this aspect of the project to tie in with my event management role which is digital promotion.
After looking at many different band interviews to get different ideas on how I can edit my raw interview footage from the college TV studio, I found this video which I really enjoyed because how it looked and how it was set out.
One aspect that I liked about this video is that it opens with the band’s music so that if someone were to watch this without knowing who the band was, they would at least know what their music was like. This allows a short introduction. The video then goes straight into the full interview. Throughout this whole interview, there is no editing or post-production and gives a very raw feel. I enjoy this because it allows the artist to be seen in a more human way and it makes it feel more personal, as if you were there.
