I Exist - Studio video

 

I shot some video of I Exist while they were in the studio recording their second album, and edited it together to their song 'Wyvern's Keep'. All shot on a Canon 5DmkII.

I Exist has posted a studio clip of a new song taken from their forthcoming album. 'Wyverns Keep' will feature on the bands new album "II: The Broken Passage" which will be released on June 17 on both CD and LP through Resist Records. To cut the long-player, the band returned to Melbourne’s Goatsound Studios, this time with US producer Billy Anderson helming the desk, whose credits include Sleep’s Sleep’s Holy Mountain and Eyehategod’s Dopesick: both hugely influential records for the band.

Pod People - Promos

I did these a few months back, at a tree that was described to me as "doom looking".
Pod People are a Canberra doom/stoner metal band, that have been around for ages.

Phantoms - As Above, So Below

Phantoms asked me to cut together some live footage of them, and make a trailer for their new album As Above, So Below.



Phantoms' debut album 'As Above, So Below' available September 20th 2010 through Trial and Error Records.

4Dead Melbourne

I went down to Melbourne with 4Dead for two shows, these were their first interstate shows with the new lineup.
This is some video from the all ages show at Catfood Press, Jon punched the head off a cymbal stand during the second song.

And this is 4Dead standing in a field, of what I assume is Canola.

Mary Jane Kelly Built On Secrets video

A couple of videos from the Sydney show of the Like There's No Tomorrow tour, Dead Kings video in a previous post.

Built On Secrets


Mary Jane Kelly and Built on Secrets at the bald faced stag in sydney on the 18th of July 2010. On the 'Like there's no tomorrow tour' with Dead Kings.

Shot on a 5d mkII 24-70mm f2.8. The LED back lights caused some srobing and I couldn't find a shutter speed to eliminate it.

Pirana Music videos

Last year I finished a degree in Communication(Media Arts Production) at the University of Canberra. One of the last assigments was to create a marketing campaign for a real business. I shot these online videos for Pirana Music as part of the multimedia campaign. Essentially just simple interviews about various lines of products they sell, inercut with close ups of the instruments.

Mindsnare - Hardcore 2010

Mindsnare headlined both days of Hardcore this year.

I Exist - Hardcore 2010

I Exist played the Saturday all ages show of Hardcore 2010 at the Factory Theatre. Originally intending to play with only 3 guitarist, which has become the norm now that Alex is back. On the day it was decided to have Kelly play as well, seeing as he was already there, he knew all the songs and there was enough amps on stage. This was the biggest show the band has played, the biggest stage, the biggest crowd they've played to and the most entertaining show they've ever played.

The video really doesn't do justice to the ridiculous spectacle that was 7 people on stage, and 8 when Caed joined in to sing 'The temptress'.

Hardcore 2010 Friday Videos

Bunch of video from the Friday night over eighteens Hardcore 2010 at the Manning Bar. Lighting was generally terrible, far too much red and the 5D video doesn't do well with strobe lights.
Some of my photos are up on the Blunt site here.

Dangers and Carpathian Video

I saw Dangers play with Graf Orlock four times last week in Sydney and in Wollongong, and I'll be seeing them again tomorrow in Canberra. While in Sydney I also went to the Carpathain gig at St. Ives.
Here's some videos of Dangers and Carpathian.





Sydney tapes blog has some audio of the Dangers graf Orlock house show here.
Also someone asked me to upload just my audio of the house show, so I'll do that once I've uploaded all the video.

Dropsaw - Album launch video

I Exist - Basement show

I haven't gotten around to editing all the tour photos or video yet.
Here's some video of I Exist, Phantoms and Warbrain  playing a basement show yesterday.



Roots bloody roots intro, Inveiglement, Invert the son, One thousand hooves. Jake attempted an inverted cross head stand

I Exist plays an indie house party

I Exist played with a bunch of hipster bands at a house warming party for a friend in Canberra. The show wasn't really advertised, people who knew they were playing were mainly friends of the band, but there were a lot of people there who wouldn't normally be exposed to I Exist or hardcore in general. A fight almost broke out a one point (see video below), Sean attempted to start a spit parti and many people tried stage diving of tables. Lit this very differently (and poorly) to other shows, both lights as back lights at either side of the band.

Taipan Earthlings Backyard

Taipan and Earthlings, Rort, Eye Gouge and Jerskstore played in a backyard in Canberra. No photos from this show, just a bunch of video. A drunken bus driver started performing wrestling maneuvers on various members of the crowd. The show was pretty wild, weren't many safe places to stand with the camera, the footage looks fairly horrible, but it's fun to watch. Show finished with yet another cover of 'Bongs' by various members of each band.
