I suppose this could go in this forum?

Anyway, I'm in a new-wave/indie rock band from Wichita called polarOPPOSITEbear.  Our drummer recently directed/shot a video for us and completed it last night.  There's hella chocolate syrup involved. If you'd like to check it out, it's on youtube at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cj62qhKuvbs .  Our singer was in a band you may have heard of called Rickyfitts.

Do any of you/your friend's bands do stuff like this?

Ballard:
You guys sound like you're trying way too hard to rip off The Bravery (who are already trying to rip off The Killers, who are already trying to rip off New Order yada yada)

Also the negative effect is really grating after a bit and the concept isn't very creative (i.e. we've seen it done a million times before).

Dimmukane:
I think it's a pretty good video for what was probably a shoe-string budget.  Can't say I'm a fan of the music.  I think about halfway through you should have started showing other stuff than just the band members in negative, because it starts to lose visual excitement.  Also, the lead singer has a really weird way of dancing.

jaskren:
Thanks for the constructive criticism.

He likes David Byrne, btw.

Sox:
The band is fine. I don't hear the comparisons Eugene made. Video has a great low budget concept, and the editing was pretty good. The editing could be a little more in sync with the actual song, but the guys who make the vast majority of music videos nowadays always seem to forget to do this anyway.

You guys deserve a pat on the back!
