Having previous experience (I play McCartney in The Upbeat Beatles) of working with Creative Cam’s Paul Hooper I was under no illusions as to the outcome of filming my solo show.
Different brief this time, as the Upbeats DVD was entirely studio based and we were miming to our own recording, which in essence was an easier project.
You can only imagine the constraints of filming a 6 piece band “live” in a theatre with a tiny stage where the only access was down a cobbled Victorian path!!!
Paul had to navigate his way around a packed house along with an assistant and a fixed camera for the long shots. The show was almost 2 hours long but he managed it ,not well but brilliantly!!!! I’d had the audio from the show recorded separately and Paul edited everything together perfectly. Now you may ask yourself what about the cost? Only a fraction of what you would think.
If you want something done - correctly! Paul’s your man.
