Hello im a fan of Coldplay just graduating out of Broadcast/Film so I used what i've learned and applied some Coldplay to it and this is what I got.

 

These are two edits that I did of the Viva La Vida Tour its a mix of live footage from youtube and my own personal footage from the Toronto July 30 2009 and Wembley Sept 18/19 2009 shows. All the footage used was filmed in High Definition to give you the best quality possible. After going to these amazing shows I really wanted to show people what the Live Coldplay experience is like.

 

Please have a look and leave a comment if you wish. Thanks for your time - Marcos :)

these are great!:D

Very nice job!

Thanks, these videos have taken a very long time to arrive at this form I have probably seen and downloaded every HD version of these songs on youtube. I went through every video afterward and found the most interesting shots and used them in my edit. Both videos have gone through dozens of variations before I came to the finished product. I would literally have the video done and think hmmm I think this has potential to be better.

 

In Toronto I had a real wide shot of the Rogers Center so I got shots such as the cell phone wave ect. When I saw the final two night at Wembley Stadium I was lucky enough to be right at the front so I got those really close up stage shots. For a while I just had these edits on my facebook profile for friends and family but I'm glad I have finally shared it with the people who I have really made it for.

 

42 people have now seen the first part of my video

lol ok maybe I jumped the gun make that 25. That was weird it honestly just said 42 views then i clicked refresh and it went back to 25...lol what are the chances of that

Hey, they are great!!! :stunned:

 

Like I said in my comment on yt - it must have taken a looooong time to edit them together so nicely.

Seeing the rain in the Wembley bits made me sentimental again, what a great night it was. :heart:

Thanks again for sharing this!!

lovers is awesoomee

Very nice! I really loved the LIJ one! :D

Thanks for sharing this videos!

Great job!!! Thank you for sharing them!! :)

fantastik videos!

Brilliant films coldplayfan24! What I'd like to know is how did you get into studying Broadcast/Film.

 

Well done on graduating by the way.

Well I've always wanted to be a director and since high school I've gotten somewhat addicted to editing I guess hah. When you have a band like Coldplay though who are amazing musicians and put on a visually stunning show its really easy to get into work like this. I'm always finding something to edit but lately i've been doing videos like this. The program I finished was broadcast television and videography but the courses that I focused on were all film courses. I do my edits on Final Cut Pro which is professional video editing software for mac computers. I filmed in HD specifically for this purpose and I think the end product turned out nicely I'm just really glad to hear others like what they are seeing. My dream job would be to film a band like Coldplay for a living but for now i'll have to continue with my undercover productions.

WOAH! I'm blown away!

NIIIIIIIIIIIICE dude! That is awesome editing and I love the fact that you made it in HD :D

Please make more!

Did you like send a portfolio of your work to your college or did you get in on qualifications?

 

Don't mind me - I'm not trying to extract intelligence from you :confused: , I'm just interested in how people get into directing.

These are really brilliant! Thanks for posting! :smiley:

Thanks flickahidalgo Im glad you think so.

 

howyousawtheworld - going into directing is not easy you have to do alot of work, it usually starts from the bottom unless your related to Lucas or Scorsese but I'm not so :( Anyway film or broadcast are really general courses that cover everything directing, camera, editing, scripwriting ect and the student just drifts into the area that best suits them. Getting into a program though requires a portfolio but schools usually look at your English marks (for the writing part) and make you write a test which is always an essay..I hate writing essays lol. The portfolio is made up of photographs rather then videos (sometimes they look at your films though) They look at how you compose an image if you have a good eye then your good to go.
