The video I made for my Furality Ultra booth was a lot of work, and I’d love to walk folks through the process!
The assumption some people have is that I got a whole bunch of people together to perform in sync, but that is absolutely not the case. Instead, every single critter, and many of the visual props you see, are on their own separate chromakeyed layer, composited using DaVinci Resolve, each one acted by me personally.
After going through the rigmarole of making nice visualizer videos for Refactor, I noticed that I’d already done that a year ago! In fact I’d done it for a few albums and I’d forgotten about that.
If you follow my YouTube channel you’ve probably been at least somewhat inundated with a bunch of videos on your feed with my music reposts. I’ve finally figured out a process I’m more or less happy with, and am figuring out the best cadence for doing things.
My current plan is to do two releases per week; on Mondays will be what I consider my “real” or “authored” albums, and Thursdays will be what I consider “jam” albums. The categorization of these is a little wishy-washy, but for example, things I’ve done for Novembeat and Strawberry Jam are “jam” albums, while things like Refactor and Songs of Substance are “authored” albums.
