Listen Up!

Headed to Kahoka, MO last month to shoot a music festival called Listen Up. If you're not familiar with Kahoka, it's the farthest northeastern point you can go to in Missouri, and it also happens to be my hometown. Anyway, the music was great, and it was a really diverse group of bands. Plus, I got to do some really cool video coverage with a combination of HD, SD, and Super 8 cameras. Yes, I mean Super 8, as in the home movie format introduced in 1965. Should make for an interesting concert film....

Above is a shot of Derek and I during a filming break. We represented about 1/3 of the film crew, so an additional shout-out goes to Cody, Dave, Chris, and Buck for helping me document the event. The concert film is next on my editing docket, so stay tuned for some video highlights from the night...

Listen Up!

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I've been involved in a small music festival in NE Missouri called Listen Up for several years now. A few weeks ago was the 11th annual show so I packed up my camera and my guitar and headed up. Haven't started editing any of the video footage from this year's show yet, but thought I would post a couple pics from the 2007 show. These particular shots were taken by English Teacher/Amateur Photographer Greg Wirsig, and I thought they captured the essense of the show quite well. If interested, head on over to the documentary portion of the Digital HQ website at http://www.digitalvideohq.com/ and check out a clip from my 2005 documentary on the festival, Three Chords Make A Song. Keep posted with the blog, I'll be posting new wedding stills from this weekend's wedding shoot soon...
