Same here. Went to sleep at 12 and my alarm went off at 4:30. Followed by a 3 1/2 hr train journey then a full day at work. Don't feel too chipper today.

Crikey. Trains suck.

Nat, was quite impressed with you on this. Thought you came across confident, clear and well informed. I would almost reach for professional and likable, unlike the presenter though. His questions felt awkward and disjointed, there was no real rapport, from him. Shame.
Oh, and I thought about my sequel to a film without a sequel. It would be The Shawshank Redemption, starring Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder. Although this time they would be breaking in to jail. And it would be nothing like Stir Crazy... well a little bit like Stir Crazy.

I was lucky enough to do a gig that a documentary crew were recording the other week. They kindly donated the footage and allowed me to use it as my first experiment with FCP...

Ace. Looking good mate. Could you have done some colour level adjustments on you and the stage parts to make it a bit more defined? Just a thought, still liked it
It was very good, Dave. Sawed it on Faysbuck! I don't think the quality quite matches up but is close enough.
I would suggest you disguise your shots with something, but I'm not sure what. Obviously you don't want to take anything away from your performance. Which I must say, is getting better with every new video I've seen.
How long you been standing up now?
Thanks, guys. Take your point about the colour adjustment - I'm just now starting to get to grips with the three wheels! The variance in quality between the stage and audience footage is down to them being recorded on different cameras (Z1 and Cannon 5D I believe). The other issue is the lighting - I can't have much on me as it bleaches out the projection and the audience miss out on jokes.
In answer to Leevil's last question, I've been at it for a year and a few months now, going fairly regularly at 1 or 2 a week. Running my own gig has been a real help as I can give myself all the stage time I like, plus I get to work with people who are much better than me - which raises my game.
You're doing well, I'm quite impressed. Just checked out your website and some of the other material. You obviously are working hard at this and it's paying off. I just wish I had half your dedication. Now, enough dick-sucking, you floppy haired mong.
Leevil what was in that email you sent to Colonel Gadaffi?

Thanks, Leevil, now get your tongue out of my anus, you frilly-collared wet nurse.
