Adam Lambert VEVO concert

昨日のコンサートに、VEVOのカメラが入っていた事は書きましたが、撮影を担当していた方がブログにいろいろと細かく書いてくれていますのでご紹介。
まあ、技術的な事は良くわからないのですが（汗）、とりあえず撮影はうまく行ったそうです。（レーザーが撮影の邪魔にならないよう、照明担当の方とお話したそうです。）
この映像は、VEVOでひと月くらいのうちに公開されるだろうと書かれています。
やった！

そして、映像や音が発売するクオリティーとして認められるくらい綺麗に撮れていたら、DVDとして発売する事になるそうです！（RCAの方がAOにコメントを残していました！）
Yes! Please!!

Comment from RCA mod on AO:
RCA Ed: If the results look and sound as good as we expect, this will be the concert DVD you guys have been clamoring for. Stay tuned.

I just got back from Indianapolis where I DP’ed a concert for American Idol star Adam Lambert. This was my second time shooting for director Doug Spangenberg of Space Monkey Studios. The first shoot Khalid and I did with Doug was in late-August for Kelis and I can say that both of these concerts have had some of the most interesting crowds I have ever seen…We didn’t get a chance to blog about that one but it went very smoothly.

On this shoot, the crew was very solid with a total of 11 cameras, and 9 operators. Doug likes to mix formats when he shoots concerts for various effects so we shot with 6x Canon 7D’s, 1x Panasonic HPX-170, 2x Panasonic HVX-200′s, and 2x GoPro HD-Hero cameras.

Overall everything went very well, however we did almost have a couple sketchy run-in’s with the lasers used in his show. At points, the lasers were literally 2 feet above my lens…not a good feeling, but the Lighting Designer knew what he was doing and was aware where each of our operators were.

Fortunately we were able to speak to Adam’s Lighting Designer and make sure that the lasers wouldn’t cross the paths of our DSLR’s. This basically resulted in us having to place the DSLR’s on the floor level which worked fine because we just placed the HPX/HVX’s on the higher levels which could be hit by the lasers. If you weren’t aware, those specific lasers can destroy the DSLR’s sensor in milliseconds. If you don’t believe me, watch this:

Overall, it was a great whirlwind of a shoot and it was good to link back up with Doug and Space Monkey Studios again. The concert will debut on VEVO within the month as a part of their most recent concert series. Looking forward to seeing how it comes out!
