TheStairwayRemainsTheSame Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I bought the Blu-Ray, DVD, CD package today and went on the rehearsals and saw that the video feed at the back of the studio isn't the video they used on the dvd it's just from a one camera why is this? Absolutely brilliant though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reswati Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 They filmed it with just one camera because it is only the rehearsal. Seems to me they filmed it for reference only, so they could look, listen and learn from how they sounded right then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I LOVE the rehearsal footage - feels like a bootleg copy, but with amazing sound. Is it me, or does the camera zoom in slightly more during the 2nd half of it? Seems like they are easier to see, IMO. So glad they decided to add that on to the release!!!

MCAN Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I was thoroughly disappointed with the rehearsal footage. I was not expecting glossy, beautiful footage but something more akin to a home video, something with some movement, that was actually close the band so we could hear them discuss things, see them make mistakes, etc. Instead we got a single shot from 30ft away that doesn't even clearly show their faces.

feather in the wind Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 ^ better than nothing. i noticed a couple more moving cameras up near the band which was displayed on the large screen behind them, wonder if THAT footage is available?

That will be on the Celebration Day Remastered Deluxe Box Set, set for release in 2017. (And would buy it, 'cause the rehearsal kicks ass).

TheStairwayRemainsTheSame Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 But what I'm saying is that that video feed does exist and I'm just wondering why that wasn't used instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDzep Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 But what I'm saying is that that video feed does exist and I'm just wondering why that wasn't used instead. Yep, I get it - and it is a good question. I really wasn't entirely joking when I said it would come out someday on a Deluxe edition. They we shell out money to buy it again. that is my answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmtomh Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 The rehearsal wasn't meant to be filmed at all. Dick Carruthers (the director) set up a single, standard-def, digicam on a tripod in the middle at some distance. They could have edited in the rear-screen video feed I suppose - but much of that feed consisted of abstract graphics and not live shots of the guys on stage. At any rate, I got the Deluxe package (2 DVD/2 CD) and the bonus disc cost me something like $6 more than the standard package would've. I'm quite happy.

Bayougal65 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 The Shepperton performance of SIBLY was the single most stunning thing I have heard of everything on the entire Celebration Day bonanza! Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the whole package....concert and rehearsal but that version of SIBLY was stellar!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's still a primary video feed from before the added on graphics though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ally Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 For me, it's the cat's ass and well worth the added cost . If you haven't already purchased, definitely get the deluxe edition . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
