Workjob
Ordinarily, this song I call 'Workjob', that I'd written a few years back, would be played with some harmonica accompaniment at various intervals throughout. This version just has an introductory bit on the ol' harp. The video is somewhat of an attempt to culminate pictorial elements that comprised a certain time phase of my own life's momentum.Stay tuned for more songs from my closet recording studio.
You may also download it in Windows Media format from my domain. Just click HERE.
Anyway, it was my first shot at using video editing software... and no source video at my disposal, either. Just a collection of original photographic content and some tricky, laborious techniques using primarily the Microsoft Paint program.
As for the song, I recorded it in one live take on June 7, 2008 on a battery operated SONY cassette unit.
The Harmonica is provided by Your's Truly, played through a Honer Key of 'C' Blues Harp.

I know, I know. Just a quick diddy I arrived at. Remember, I'm only greasin' the wheels, mates.

Hi Folks;
So I've been putting in some time with the ol' computer machine, and I must say that Windows Movie Maker for Windows Vista is, from my own perspective as a novice editor and first time user, simply amazing and fairly intuitive.
I was rather impressed by the capacity of Microsoft's latest (for me anyhow) video producing software. Windows Movie Maker provides a host of effects and functions... my point being is that I found it fairly painless to throw together a decently interesting slide show with some improvisational effects via Microsoft Paint and other programs.
The music video is nearing completion, and destined to be a hit...my only concern now is the actual transference of sound into data with as little qualitative degradation as possible. I think I'll keep it down to a simple live take and maybe ping-pong harmonica and tambourine tracks before mastering it.
I'm minimizing the amount of equipment being used, as I hope for the song itself to come through. Is the slideshow well suited? I'll soon see. With any luck, it should be finished and available by eight o'clock.
That being said, I've been running into some software difficulties lately... Freeware is the culprit in this case, and I've been recently noticing quirky changes to the operating system. Obviously I'm no expert in this arena... modern PCs are so virtually vast now-a-days with the World Wide Web and all.
Anyway, prior to the release of my new slideshow music video, I thought that I'd grease the wheels a bit and upload a simple '.wav' file by the name of Yuletide Jenga. It's now freely available in my ISP account's humble DOMAIN.
The rock band I play in is called 'Moremore ENOUGH', I should admit that the title was inspired by the group Hot Hot Heat - EDMONTON BASED?
