Wah Wah World! | Completed Work

[Anon-P]

This thing is a little bit of a quick one compared to my other shows since I only took 10 days working on it. Also I starting to experiment a little with that new recording tech that @wolfpaw showed me. Also credit to him and @CrazHadder for the cool set btw

 

Anyways, I'm cooking something big and I can't wait to share it with y'all

THAT WAS VERY BRIGHT! 

Per usual, you maintain a remarkably high energy throughout the entire run. Though I feel like your hyper-bright lasers tend to overpower much of your show. The big hit at 0:55 is beautiful as we can see every effect launching and finishing, but then 10 seconds later everything is washed out in white light during what is a pretty tame break in the music. Just my $0.02. 

Some of my favorite moments throughout the show were 0:55, the super fun transition to green at 1:13, and the firery orange segment from 2:02 to 2:13

I liked the alternating blue/violet vertical lasers at 2:30. It's an interesting way to get movement into the show without any actual movement.

Given that you worked on this show for such a short span of time I'll save most of the advice points I would give but I can only echo what has been said so far - despite not being a big fan of this type of music your ability to maintain that high energy for a 4-minute song is always impressive. I do agree with Kablary on the lighting, the lighting throughout the show was a bit bright and it washed away some of the nice big-impact moments you had and blanded out some of the color schemes. Given that this is using the same set as 'The Call' I can only compare to it and could offer up a few points:

- I noticed the camera was static the entire show, I know you were having some issues with this new recording method and moving the camera and you created this show in such a short time but never underestimate the dynamics that a moving camera can have on a show. Shows can get very boring very quickly, moving the camera keeps the viewer engaged and tricks them into always seeing a "new angle of the show", which in turn keeps them more engaged and entertained!

- Batteries, batteries, batteries! I know this has been brought up before but it has been a recurring theme I've noticed in most of your shows - would love to see you stray away from using so many batteries and to hand choreograph some of the sections. I understand this type of music can get repetitive - which is the perfect time to use batteries - but I would be very interested to see a more hand-crafted intimate choreography to see what you can really do. You're not miss-using the batteries, I just think there's too much of a reliance on them

- Interact more with the set: I noticed most of your laser placements were emitting around the same style and position throughout the show. Like I said before since this is using the same set as 'The Call' I can only compare to it but in that show, I had laser cones coming out from the top of the tower along with banner lasers throughout the back of the set - would be really cool to see more interaction with the set, though I did love what you did with the LED walls.

Just a couple of points I noticed but it is a very well-done show for such a short time, excited to see what you do next!

Yeah, maybe there's a little bit of post-processing mistake on me

Not to mention that some of the LEDs that I use is way too bright

It's all about the learning process. I know I haven't fully grasped the whole new tech yet but, once I get the hang of it, it'll be MAGICAL

Definitely worth the amount I spent watching actual light shows as well as concert videos

Talk about batteries!!

I feel like there was a lot of missed opportunities with the set in terms of lasers, and pyro.

Had you used more of the set, and taken advantage of its potential, it could of definitely added to the show's overall design and choreography.

I also feel like there needed to be a better show progression - something to keep the viewer's interest apart from the bombardment of pyro, and lasers.

@wolfpaw brings up really good points with the use of batteries that can help with creating a good flow/progression to your shows.

 

Other than that, for what you were able to do in a span of only 10 days is impressive!
