Jeremy Clyde, Rick Jones, Valerie Neal: So Right Tonight

Jeremy Clyde on vacation in the US after the May 2015 tour. Last September, Rick Jones and Valerie Neal performed with Jeremy to launch his first solo album, The Bottom Drawer Sessions, No 1 (linked are details on my work on the album). This song is another from the bottom drawer.

This video was shot on my Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera with a 7.5mm F/3.5 fisheye lens and edited in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6. Audio was recorded on a Tascam handheld recorder (on the table) and synced with video footage during post production.

Jeremy Clyde: Willow Weep for Me

The Chad and Jeremy tour scheduled in May 2015 was cut short by an emergency which left Chad unable to travel. Jeremy sang four songs on his own at the Cannery in North Las Vegas.

Chad has since had a successful knee replacement and we are all very happy for that.

This video was shot on my Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera with a 7.5mm F/3.5 fisheye lens and edited in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 with effects created in Adobe After Effects.

Mike Pender’s Searchers: When You Walk In The Room

Through my work with Chad and Jeremy, I’ve been fortunate to know other artists from the 1960s. In March 2015, I joined several dates of the British Invasion Tour, which included the artists: Terry Sylvester, Mike Pender, Chad and Jeremy, Billy J Kramer, Denny Laine and Peter Asher.

This video was shot on my Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera with a 25mm F/1.4 TV lens and edited in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 with effects created in Adobe Photoshop.

Peter Asher & Chad and Jeremy Media

Peter and Gordon and Chad and Jeremy were the two most prolific British Invasion duos. There were many similarities between them, such that they are still confused to this day. This multimedia show featured memories and songs from the remaining three members of the two duos. Alma shot video of rehersals to guide the show’s development (with a grand total of 150 years in the music industry – there was a lot that was edited out!)

Alma created publicity graphics for this show, title cards to project before each act. She also took publicity photos including an 8×10 to be sold and signed at the shows. Unfortunately, due to scheduling difficulties, there was only a short run of under five performances.

Timelapse with Tilt-Shift Effect

Video shot at one frame per two seconds on BlackMagic Pocket Cinema Camera.

Tilt-shift effect added in Adobe AfterEffects CS6

The Lycee Français de Chicago is opening a new school adjacent to some property Alma has access to. She perched with her Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera up on the 6th floor and shot timelapse video (one frame per two seconds) for the entire groundbreaking ceremony.

Alma added a Tilt-Shift look in Adobe After Effects to enhance the miniature feel that was already present in the footage.
