Yes! I was hoping for another concert photography video. This was particularly interesting as you mentioned there wasn't a photographer pit to move around. So was good to know how you manoeuvred through it.
enjoyed your video! when you talked about your kit and just having one body I did feel my blood pressure go up a bit. I usually shoot with two cameras one with the zooms (24-70, adding a 70-200 for bigger venues, and 85, 35 and 16 primes for the other camera). In California the venues have gotten so difficult. They herd you into the pit, often a slot between barricade and audience for two songs and then herd you out. Some venues make sure you leave the building. (The Fonda, Hollywood). I know some photographers who are using venue approved, p and s super zooms just so they can stay and move around. went to northern Cali (Mammoth Lakes) recently to shoot Larkin Poe and between the tour manager, manager and festival producer no one could find my pass. 1/2 hour before the show Rebecca Lovell had to get on the phone with the producer to clear me in and then security walked me out after the Larkin Poe set. yikes.
I used to set up my 2 bodies the exact same way. Its crazy how some venues are. I shot the Hollywood Bowl once and i had to shoot from half way up the venue behind the sound board. It was crazy far. Fortunately i had an extender for my 70-200.
@@ItsMeNubbs I wasn't shooting but I saw the Chicks at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, Griffith Park a few weeks ago and they put the two photographers behind the board about halfway back in the small arena there also.
