There's been a lot of musicking today. There is even more obsession with "Andromeda Weeps" than The End of the World. There were four sessions for sure and maybe one more.
The object is to ensure the Phrases for the song flow from one to another in a way I want. That develops and it's feel highly damn good to lead it with the keyboard because I haven't done it that way previously.
In-between there's a whole lot of thinking of how the storyboard works for what scenes need to be in it, what's the sequence of them, etc. The lyrics need work too because I'm still not sure how well they fit.
The oddity is some numbness in my strummer wing. The other one is the metal shoulder so this sensation is unusual. It's happened every so often and it looks more and more that it's musicking doing it. I'm suspicious it's the keyboard as the ergonomic aspect of things is important and both shoulders have been whacked all to hell, I just didn't break this one.
It seems more logical for the other arm since it muscles the hell out of the fingerboard out of the guitar but that isn't the one which gets strange from it. Most unusual.
It doesn't happen very often but it happened today so that's why musicking gets attention for the cause of it.
Something else which occurred to me about the video is I'll switch from a soft version of the main part of the song to a hammerhead part. In sync with that, the view out of the back of the Rockhouse will change. It wouldn't work for this story but it would be just as easy to put an atomic explosion back there as kids in the park. If I can shoot the video or find it somewhere then it will work as a background like that and there are loads of atomic explosions online.
(Ed: that's not sci-fi. That's just grandstanding.)
Roger that, Cap'n. It would look cool but so what. The object in this story is there will be no explosions so it wouldn't happen in this one anyway.
A big thought came zooming out of nowhere ... you have to quit smoking so you can actually finish all the crap you are thinking about filming. This one has been flying around all day. It's like a guilt drone but at least it doesn't make that annoying buzzing sound.
Unknown if this can really happen but you know the insanity and I hope you don't know the addiction.
Nothing weighs heavy about the idea, the only consideration is the practicality of it. The logic of it is entirely clear, the capability to do it is questionable. The drive is also clear because it's shit if you're croaking and thinking, man, I sure wish I had finished that project.
Holy mackerel ... there could be a Knoxville Unit to film the Young Beautiful People. The video needs to be HD 1080p at 1920 x 1080 resolution and I can't use 4K so I would only sample that down to the project resolution. A halfway decent camera should be able to do it so then the only thing needing to be transferred is the digital data. Since that will be multi-gigabytes, it might be best to mail the SD cards back and forth.
The thought came from the lyrics since Jason and Andromeda will be all lovey on a sailing boat but we're short on them here at the Rockhouse. Then came the thought, what if Young Beautiful People could rent one in a park up in Tennessee and the Knoxville Unit could film them.
I wouldn't even need to be there. So long as the Knoxville Unit films it in some kind of cool way and the video clip meets the specs from the storyboard, it will work here. That would make it a collaborative deal but that would be swell. I've done various collabs previously and they have always been a good challenge.
Hmm ... definitely a possible twist.
In fact, what this means is maybe there are other Remote Units. If any of the close regulars have a suitable video camera and could get some footage in someplace cool then maybe that could end up in one of the videos so long as there's a reason for whatever that cool thing may be.
Typically, the shot will be best from a tripod because the camera can't be moving or the whole back of the Rockhouse will move and then people will start hurling their lunch.
The storyboard needs to be together immediately. From that it becomes clear what is required and from that how and where to shoot it.
I am so jazzed to the Moon on this. The idea of collaboration spins it into a whole 'nother orbit.
