Recording comments |
Genesis - Rome, Italy 5 February 1974 (6:26) - Includes short clips of Watcher, Moonlit Knight, IKWIL, Musical Box, More Fool Me, Battle of Epping Forest, Supper's Ready, and The Knife This recently "discovered" film was filmed by Claudio Fracasso. It has excellent close ups and some of the best images of The Knife. Unfortunately the clips are very very short, so instead of using the actual Rome audio, I used soundboard audio since audio from the same concert would not help these tiny clips. The film runs very fast (bad batteries, probably) about 20% fast, so I slowed down the film to correctly match the audio. The film captured 8% widescreen (1.44) which is nice. I inserted camera flash "photos" to link short segments together, to create longer segments where I thought it would help. Overall a nice film with impressive close-ups and good lighting. Genesis - Liverpool April 1975 (21:47) - Includes painfully short clips of all songs from the lamb as well as the musical box encore This film was a mild form of torture to work with. The image quality is great at times, but it seems the film itself was not catching properly inside the camera. The result is a stuttery film of inconsistent timing with sections that run slow and skip fast at the same time. There is simply no way to make an accurate sync, and even in parts where a sync is possible, often just 2 syllables are captured which makes for a less than enjoyable result. The filmer also spent a lot of time zooming and shaking and panning all over the place. In order to reduce this effect, I kept the view planted on the stage as much as possible, while deshaking and dezooming the edges. The stage for the lamb tour is on the dark side and the transfer aperture had to be open pretty wide in order to see decent images, so the HD transfer made a big difference to capture all possible resolution. I also used a blending effect in areas where the stuttering/flickering was very pronounced. The results were much more pleasing to watch, compared to the source which can be very tiring and dizzying to watch. I also found some great sync points that matched perfectly. Note however that this film is a mix of (at least) two nights in Liverpool, though since they played there 3 nights, there is no way to know for sure which nights were filmed. I used the amazing quality Liverpool soundboard (as well as pieces of other soundboards where necessary) throughout. This and Volume 3 (Bern 1975 8mm) are my favourite Genesis Museum Masters. Even though the sources are quite chopped (when in a VERY generous mood), the visual quality of them is very sharp, so much so that even glimpses of slides can be discerned sometimes. Regarding the dates concerning the Liverpool 8mm, I think none of them include the night of April 19th: when the well-known soundboard from that night is used for a dub, several elements from both the far center and stage right shot fail to properly sync, a likely evidence that none of them belong to the audio in question. We already know the 8mm represents two nights, in this case, April 18th and 20th, though which is which is not known. [Jack_Floyd] |
