PLEASE NOTE:
==========

My Promoter wanted me to make 2 promos of the same event, only with different music.  So, this is * EVENT PROMO 2 * with Fukkk Offf's music.

* EVENT PROMO 1 * - with Arnaud Rebotini's Music: http://vimeo.com/5385051 (below in this blog)

This is a video promo of the event for Eject Management.

At this event I VJ-ed, videotaped, photographed and then afterward made this promo.

Merci to Marc (Eject Management), merci to Fukkk Offf for his soundtrack 'Rave is King', merci to Grégory Guy (aka VJ Firestarter) for shooting me VJ-ing live and to Rouge TV :)

PS: The educational films are from my 16mm collections in Detroit that I transferred digitally.  I'm not sure I've seen the "Good Assignment..." film on Prelinger Archives, has anyone?  And of course I changed all the titles, the first one saying "Make sure you understand" to "alcohol"...and Gus (kid) understands that! hee hee ;)

Merci to Marc (Eject Management), merci to Arnaud Rebotini for his soundtrack 'Un Cheval d'Orgueil', and merci to Grégory Guy (aka VJ Firestarter) for shooting me VJ-ing live - first time I'm in one of my promos that I make! ouais! :)

TECHNICAL NIGHTMARE:
I made this video with various visual noise and distortion effect filters and well, that just doesn't jive in video compression land and I totally forgot about that while emerged in the creative process. :(

So, I had to applied a couple blur filters and make a 720x480 into a 1280x720 HD version in order for this video to be viewable on vimeo - otherwise, too many damn pixelated artifacts, totally unbearable to watch - that is why this susposedly HD video is slightly blurred and not crystal clear clean.

Updated my material list on my website (with images & descriptions).  I started out with 16mm and VCRs and now mix with laptop, midi, etc.:

D'Jamency + VJ Julie Meitz = Best Live Mix Excerpts from Julie Meitz on Vimeo.

This is a live VJ (Video Jockey) mix ; on the fly attempt to fit. Resolume beta 2.4 (audio analyzer *not* used).

That night I had technical problems and did not mix as well as I would have liked to. Yet, D'Jamency as usual, jammed très+très bien and that helped me keep my cool. :)

2 more technical notes; there is a hum in the sound and the night-shot mode (infrared) on the camcorder just doesn't cut it sometimes - yet without it, live feed of DJs just isn't possible, so...

Lastly, Le Globull changes it's deco all the time, so when I arrived, they had designed the screen in 2 parts and so often I tried to use an effect that separated the image into 3 horizontal parts to try and match/play with it's screen shape.

Here are some photos to show what I mean:

PS: Often I use this man in my VJing works - he's from Norman McClaren's 1984 film Narcissus :)

PS2: The music was not recorded at the time we mixed, thus this is only the video mix part.  A musical piece from the band was chosen and added to this video afterwards.

really sick of myspace...fatigée de mon-espace...

if you are a band and you want my friendship, you better have a damn good reason why, otherwise you go down the "bad egg" chute of the julie & the chocolate factory!

si vous êtes un groupe de musicien/nes et vous voulez mon amitié, avoir une bonne réponse pour "pourquoi?", autrefois, je vous jette dans la glissoire de "l'oeuf mauvais" de julie et l'usine de chocolat!

"GO JULIE GO!", replied willie wonka

David Carretta + VJ Julie Meitz = Best Live Mix Excerpts from Julie Meitz on Vimeo.

This is a live VJ (Video Jockey) mix ; on the fly attempt to fit. Resolume beta 2.4 (audio analyzer *not* used).

That night I had technical problems and did not mix as well as I would
have liked to. Yet, David Carretta jammed très super-duper bien! The
house was on fire! Yeahhh-Ouaisss!!! :)

2 technical notes; there is a hum in the sound and the night-shot mode
(infrared) on the camcorder just doesn't cut it sometimes - yet without
it, live feed of DJs just isn't possible, so...
