A side project: Editing a Depeche Mode concert film, for fun
a month ago
Two years ago I impulsively bought tickets to the Mememto Mori World Tour performance, in my home town, on the eve of my birthday. I saw a poster for the show, and as I considered attending I came close to tears when I realized I'd never bought tickets for a rock concert, ever. I'd gone to a few free shows in my youth, and at least one paid show, but always tagging along with other acquaintances to see a band I didn't really love. I had few friends and such a thing was exceedingly rare. Besides, it's not something I want to go to alone. With determination, I snagged the best seats still available anywhere near the stage - I was not going to sit so far away that I couldn't tell the performers apart.
After that expensive fun, I chose to track down all the videos of the show I could find online, and assembled a playlist close to 300 videos long. Several were since deleted or no longer available. Not satisfied with that, I took on the hobby of editing all those videos into a concert film for a personal keepsake - or more accurately, 30 individual videos that sequentially play as a concert film, which I just appended to the beginning of that playlist. The edits are a little boring early on due to a lack of varied sources to compile, but by the 8th video, World In My Eyes, there's enough coverage to assemble entertaining edits.
There is a real concert film being released this month, "M", of their tour show in Mexico City. in the meantime, here's mine. Playlist is linked in the video description. /youtube.com/playlist?list=PLKpEqb7YSY_qnaNutGCu_YcvXkwBM4AmN
