Most of my work at my internship at Muziekodroom has been in preparation of Play Festival, a 2-day showcase festival featuring a great number of smaller bands amongst some better known names. During the festival my job was to help manage the photographers and capture some of the action on tape myself. After 3 days (including the on-invite-only opening night/PIL-awards) I ended up with +10 hours of footage. A hell of a job to edit, but I did it. The result:

Finished these last week, due to bad weather the shoots had to be postponed a few times again and in the end the editing kinda got rushed. Starting this Wednesday you can watch for these at JIMtv, about 8 times a day.

Enjoy and feel free to leave a comment!

Currently I’m doing my 3-month internship at muziekodroom.be, which is a local music venue, which organizes concerts, parties and their own ‘Play Festival‘. Also they have their own educational program and as of next year even their own study direction ‘Pop & Rock’.

On my first day already I got the responsibility over the Play Festival promo clips. Earlier an announcement was made through the Play Festival website to make an own version of the Stranglers - No More Heroes, which is also the tagline of the festival, since the festival and the “Play” concept in general seek to promote upcoming bands. So the winner, Floris Francis Arthur, was chosen and contacted to star in the clip.

After some brainstorming with colleague Stijn I was left to it and during the rest of the week I searched for locations to shoot and drew a storyboard. A day before the shoot it started snowing. Since we were on quite the tight schedule we had to shoot something anyway. So we went to ” ‘t Jazzkot” inside muziekodroom and started improvising. And this is the result:

I will be shooting more of these next week, so stay tuned!
