Fogger is Heating - Something is Starting

This is the first time with my own witchy mix of fog juice so your guess how this will work.  It will take about fifteen minutes to start blowing smoke which should be enough time to get completely blasted.

The thinking is toward "Love in the Cemetery" which goes back seven or eight years.  The logic is if you can't find love with a vampire then you're never going to find it anywhere.  Romance.  That's the key to a hit song.

It's also the key to the hit video as I had five or six beautiful women in the video and killed every one of them in about four minutes flat.  Even Tarantino doesn't kill everyone.  It will crack me up endlessly how girls were clamoring to be in it so they could get killed too.  That video was a major giggle to make.

...

Time passes

...

The video is somewhat cool but not cool enough.  The camera was pointed well this time to see what the fingers are doing ... but there wasn't enough fill light to see them too much.  The static cam was poised well for the lasers and that looked impressive but there was the same problem that fill light was insufficient.

Recording it is geek paradise.  A track goes out from GarageBand but Audio Hijack won't hear it because the track gets sent out to the mixer but it doesn't go back.  You hear it in the speakers here but you won't hear it in the mix to the computer.  Playing peek-a-boo with how something sounds at any given point is (expletive) but there's a masochistic sense of achievement in making it work.

I won't take another try tonight as it takes half an hour to get everything primed.  I can skip a good bit of peek-a-boo stuff next time as the other problem is getting more fill light and also setting the fogger for auto, just keep it coming.
