Beneath the Scene

The Comcast promo went up last week on Comcast On-Demand, if you are in the Chicagoland area you can view the promo by going to the On-Demand menu, selecting GET LOCAL, then CHICAGO CITY, then FUSION DANCE.

I did not edit the video, though I wish I did. Someone else edited the video, I think it was the Fusion marketing manager who did it. It's not a bad video, it's just that I wish they told me they were going to use some of my old (to me, outdated) videos that I created for them a month ago for the demonstration to Comcast. They used my old Cube rotating videos, wall-flash intro, and countdown.

They did have a scene in the video which was a live interview with a music artist, and it was HORRIBLE! Bad lighting, sound, overall quality was equal to a cell-phone-camera-shot Youtube video. I mentioned this to them (nicely of course) and they said they had many problems with the camera that they rented. They hope to iron out the issues by next time. I also made myself available for editing these videos if they need me to.

It is certainly nice to have my material for show on such a public and well-known distribution!

Right now, I'm going to be going through a revision of the old videos to make them more sleek and sexy, so that they can match the quality of the FUSION animation that I made for them last week.

For the next set of material, they will (hopefully) provide me with several music videos so that I can incorporate them into my updated animatics. Although, after this promo, I'm not sure of the direction in which they want to go with the next set of material.
