"Hot Spring Rain" music video

I might as well start my online portfolio with the project I had the most involvement with! In addition to directing, shooting and editing this music video, I played bass and sang backups on the song.

This was a video I made for my band Indacoda Blue back in 2008. I shot it on a Flip Cam, back when I was just making behind-the-scenes videos for the band. I edited it in iMovie '08. The coolest effect, in my opinion, was the "headphones audio" when the Robber takes the iPod from Quinn on the street. You can also catch a glimpse of my "acting" skills at the end. Luckily I'm only in it for about 1.5 seconds.

The video was never finished because we could never find the time to shoot the performance parts. Also, I had no idea what I was doing as a director. I was just winging it, as you do. As the message at the beginning says, I thought the footage was too funny to just forget about, so I made it a "half video".

I also made a version with a commentary track, mostly so I didn't forget the little tidbits about the making of the video.
