Late Saturday post for you with another one from Rodney Parker’s collection. This one cuts at 9min- that’s all that exists of the MTX set from this night. The video was very dark- I had to crank the brightness to 100 to get something to show. I like Rodney’s filming perch, up above all the heads.

I debated about whether I should post this one from Rodney Parker’s collection of master tapes he loaned me, but what the heck. You can see Jon Von and Frank a little better than my original post a while back.

I followed the same approach that I took on that Green Day video from Rodney’s graduation party- virtualdub has the ability to adjust brightness and contrast at the source, so that’s what I did. I cranked up the brightness, adjusted contrast BEFORE the capture and then did the work in adobe. Sure, it looks a bit like 1980s night vision security footage, but still, you can actually see them.
