So....
About that villain vanguard screening.
Well the event last Thursday didn’t go as planned. In fact there was some miscommunications with the Villain Vanguard and they have yet to view their entire film. Naturally I was a bit bummed, being ready to hear their feedback on the direction I took with their live filming.
So we replanned for a week later, but the night before the screening (take two) Frank; the Villain Vanguard’s bassist and one of the backing vocalist in the band; was robbed. After a quick home invasion Frank lost all of his music gear, and the television that was to be used in the screening. So now not only has the band not enjoyed their new film, they are temporarily disabled due to a theft. Hearing about gear getting stolen like this is gut wrenching to me and it being Franks is even worse my heart goes out to the guys and I hope I can help get them back on their feet.
I will naturally keep you posted until the enjoy the clip of the Villain Vanguard playing their song Babylon.

Tonight it's going down
The Villain Vanguard are having a party and the entire band will get to watch their new DVD that I finished editing Tuesday. This should be interesting really hoping for good results.
The DVD has some great features from motion menus styled like pieces of the film, an hour and five minute show with interviews with the band between songs, some killer footage of beautiful down town ft worth I shot after the original show, a slide show of the band playing gigs. Not to mention a special little extra my zombie teaser/short Zombie Attack is on the special features menu.

First off check this link out.
So on June 9th me and the dfw noise guys made a quick decision to go out and run sound for local band the Villain Vanguard a cool group of really talented guys. After talking it over with the guys we decided to film as well and record the audio off our mixer. Well after juggling a few jobs I got a solid six days of work in on their film. The end result one of the coolest little funky DVDs with cool menus and great interviews I have had the pleasure making. Check out the clip send me back a line on what you think. And if it captures you enough I’ll get you some info on when and where to get your hands on a copy of the full DVD/cd pack.
