I’ve just finished editing the video summary of the latest Cool Cavemen’s concert . It’s now available on YouTube  :

That video was mostly shot with my Canon EOS 7D in 1080p at 24fps, with a Tamron SP AF 17-50mm f/2.8 XR Di-II VC LD IF lens.

The final video also include footage from various people in the audience:

  • Jim from Maomium tested during the concert its brand new Sony Alpha SLT-A33, equipped with a Sony 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 SAM DT zoom lens, which produces nice 1080i streams at 50 fps;

  • Loïc filmed in 720p/30fps with Tomasito ’s Canon PowerShot SX200IS (which was used to produce Omashay ’s Wish You Looked at Me music video  );

  • and finally Sylvie shot at 480p/30fps with Dam ’s point-and-shoot camera, the one he uses for his guitar cover videos  .

The video was edited with the latest version of Kdenlive and exported to a 1080p/24fps stream:

If you enjoyed the music and atmosphere of the video, I urge you to go to the next Cool Cavemen’s concert . And because I know the majority of my readership can’t be in the north of France next month, let me remind you there’s still a one hour video of our biggest 2009 concert available online (on which I did all the lighting).

And if you liked the first song, its called Belgique mon Namurrr and you can watch the whole of it here (lyrics are in subtitles):
