Gold House Sessions - Live Music Video Sessions (All GH2!)
  • artiswarartiswar

    Hey PV,

    Been off the wagon here for a bit but here's what we've been working on.

    The Gold House has been a DIY venue here in Albuquerque for about 8 years. We're adding live sessions to the mix. Here are a few.

    Young Lungs was shot on 5 GH2s, Sondra on 4, and Basement on 2. Such a versatile and powerful camera. Big thanks to @driftwood and @Vitaliy_Kiselev

    Very nice work and some really great performances. Can you share your set up - lenses used, lighting, rig, monitors etc. I'm especially interested in knowing what lenses you used. Looks like a small space for 5 cameras.

    By the way, that first Young Lungs song, very Neil Young and Crazy Horse sounding. Cool stuff.

    @Pino - Thanks!

    For the Young Lungs stuff it was a pretty miserable shoot. We had a 35mm Zeiss Contax prime on a dolly (drummer shots), a 28mm Zeiss prime on a rig (wider singer shots), a 14-140mm Panasonic zoom at 18mm for the ultrawide master and a 50mm Zeiss prime for the beauty shots of the singer and the rhythmic rack focus shots of the keyboardist.

    Lighting was the miserable part. The studio we shot these in had no AC and in the middle of June in New Mexico it's a scorcher. Add 5 cam ops and a full band plus two 1K Arris (in either corner, dual purpose key and rim light), it was very unbearable.

    No monitors on any of the shoots, just the VF and LCD. As far as rigs, we shoot on Gini.

    The Basement session was shot on a Zeiss 28mm prime and a OM 50mm. Lighting was only house lamps.

    Sondra's video was a mix of 28, 50.
