The back ground noise kind of added to the video, I'm disappointed with my talking, dah dah

I always love it when Haley sings HOTRS. She and that song seem like old friends at this point.
It's great that Haley is so confident on stage that flubbed lines don't throw her off at all these days. It is slick how she accidentally says her father is the tailor and even changes the next line to "he" sewed my new blue jeans. I never even noticed that during the show.
I'm curious, Tusk. It seems to me on the second night during HOTRS Scott had a piano break that was really fun. Did you get that by any chance? Maybe you just couldn't get it to fit into the edit?

It's so weird seeing her uvula vibrate like that lol. But that was such a rad performance! Thanks to everyone who helped make the video!!!
RE: [split] Haley in Vegas - January 2015 - Tusk - 01-31-2015
The slight blurring/vibration you see on the close ups in HOTRS is me finally figuring out how to use Image Stabilization function in my editing software to compensate for shaky video.
You pick an area where you want the computer to focus it's analysis, then let it calculate the image to figure out what to stabilize. It's a function that uses alot of your computer's resources, and would sometimes seize up my computer when I tried to use it.
I think what it does is figure out the constant items in the image and holds onto that while the frame itself moves around, while the image subject, the focus stays centered. When I zoomed out, you can see the edges of the video move around, while Haley, the subject stays in the center...
Pretty amazing what software can do....
I used to try Image Stabilization on my whole video, but more often than not, it would be too much, and seize my computer making me restart my computer, so I stopped trying to use it.... Last night, I realized I only had to stabilize the clips that I needed to stabilize, a shorter clip, instead of the whole video (duh...
) So instead of stabilizing a 6 minute clip, I only had to stabilize shorter 20-30 sec clips, which ended up working !! I kind of wish I had that epiphany before I made "Habits" and AATB, they would be just a little bit better

This is my opinion based on nothing, but I have a hunch, performers, in general, don't like to have too much of their performances posted. It takes the "bloom off the rose" when fans go to see them perform
Being video'd at shows is a necessary annoyance that they've had to accept as a sign of the times. I think Haley appreciates and takes advantage that the videos promote her (since she does little self promotion herself... because the video's do it for her? Or the video's exist because she doesn't self promote? Chicken/Egg
), however, I think she prefers fans to come enjoy her performing for them more than being video'd.The issue is proliferation. Some is good, too much is too much.
I learned that lesson when I was last in Vegas, "less is more"
When I was in Vegas last, as part of the "Trifecta", we recorded all (50+?) of Haley's performances on the 3 Nights....
While posting them, I realised that I was 'flooding' the channel with videos, some better than others, different variations of the same songs, I then noticed that an 'indifference' was developing the more Vegas videos I posted. People became indifferent about them.
If you look at those Vegas performances, crowd audio aside, they were some of the best (crystal clear videos) on my channel. Yet, as a set of video's, they are among my fewest viewed.
This video is Gorgeous, from the 3rd night in Vegas, over 1 1/2 years later, only 239 views
I feel a responsibility, since this channel is primarily about Promoting Haley, to present Haley and her performances in the best light, why I put effort into making the videos the best I can. So I have to use editorial discretion when considering posting a video that's submitted to me. I feel a responsibility to maintaining a standard.
So the lesson learned is when there are multiple nights of performances, chose the best of the performances instead of posting all of them. Less is More, especially if the point is to promote Haley
As far as promoting Haley goes, you get the best of both worlds, you don't flood, rather, you highlight, the best performances
(the caveat is if it's something unique that happens)
However, If it's requested I can always post it, but it'll be unlisted.

It's unlisted, I cut off a few seconds at the beginning
RE: [split] Haley in Vegas - January 2015 - Swansteel - 01-31-2015
Yeah! That was really good. Thanks!
RE: [split] Haley in Vegas - January 2015 - Tusk - 02-02-2015
I figured I'd tweet the video to some of the other performers in the show, got a response from Shoshana

Way better than we could have hoped for you get better at editing all the time. Haliens might enjoy the little party at the end if you have it, just a suggestion, what ever you do is beyond the pale. Thanks
Good suggestion, airhigh, thanks for going 'beyond the pale' and following up to send it to me
I'm glad I took a little extra time to get their names on the vid as Scott announced them instead of just posting it as/is, I think it might've helped encourage them to share the vid
