Thanks very much guys. My goal was to create a simple, elegant video that highlighted Keith's hands and instrument to really convey how he plays this guitar. You can see that he's all over the place. His instrument is totally unique and the fact that he is a master luthier and designed and built this is pretty incredible. We plan to do more videos later on that will probably be very different conceptually, but the goal with this 1st one was to really focus on how he plays it.

Jon,
First of all, I really enjoyed that piece on many levels. Loved the monochromatic look, the harsh lighting and angles, the picture-in-picture, and certainly the great music. Thanks for making and sharing this, it's the most enjoyable thing I've viewed in a while! |

Wow. This is great.
I really enjoyed this elegantly simple video. Especially liked how the headlight gave his head this nice glow, the black and white also intensified the whole gloriole look. Concept fits perfectly to the music. Could you please describe how you set up the lights. Thanks very much =) Cheers |

Thanks! Pretty basic lighting actually. As I remember a small backlight from up and above; maybe a 150 or 300w; can't remember. Key lights from front were a mix of 300 and 650's; in most of the front shots I was trying to make sure I lit Keith and the guitar pretty equally; on the lensbaby shots, I used back light and side fill only and turned his position to camera. Once again the goal of this video was to put Keith's hands and guitar on display. I really like the dramatic, artsier vibe to the Lensbaby shots but that would not have worked for our needs throughout.
Planning right now with Keith to do another; different and more abstract concept. Glad you like it! |
