Here's something I put together by accident, really.

Dama/Libra are a band from Seattle that I created a film for a while back......
Dama / Libra : Been to the Water from Chris Purdie on Vimeo.
..... They were called Thine but had to change their name. Anyway, I was compiling footage for another project whilst listening to to this song and I guess I got a little distracted because the footage I found didn't work with the project I was assigned to at all - but it really worked with this.
So I worked a little on it and re-cut much of the footage. de-saturated it, and added some filters to give it it's own feel and I think the final project looks great. The band seemed to think so too.
It's a deliberately hypnotic song, which I think the video compliments. Have a watch and see how it makes you feel.

Live Video's
So now that I'm back in the saddle, I thought best to start with music video's.
It's been a while since I did any of these. The main reason is that I'm generally too busy to want to work for free. However, you can't just show up to a gig, film a band and expect to get paid for it. That doesn't work.
Sadly, the chances of being paid for doing this kind of work is slim, but fortunately I enjoy doing it so expect a few of these over the coming months. They'll be fleeting, but they'll be good.
Anyway, here are three films from a recent Merrin gig in Northampton. We were supporting Karma to Burn (and Desert Storm & The Atrocity Exhibit, again)
The video's are a mixture of synced and un-synced footage and I don't thin you can tell the difference.
Anyway, enjoy.

Desert Storm - Astral Planes from Chris Purdie on Vimeo.
Karma to Burn - 53 from Chris Purdie on Vimeo.
I am toying with the idea of creating a channel specifically for this kind of work. Dedicated & branded, delivering quality live footage of underground shows. Whether I have the time to keep it up to date on a regular basis is another matter altogether though, so we'll see how that goes.
