STAGE-TUBE

In the last blog I failed to mention that we had visited STAGE-TUBE sometime in June to record two live music videos.

What is STAGE-TUBE?

STAGE-TUBE is a platform for bands and musicians in Hong Kong and nearby regions to show off their talents and to promote their music.

What is the video quality?

HD quality

Which songs did you record?

We recorded two of our more familiar songs, 'The Masquerade' and 'Man Love!'. We had never recorded a live music video before and this was definately a lot of fun. It has a very interesting process in creating a live music video.

Are they really live recordings?

Yes they are! First we recorded the song live and that covered the sound and the main cameras. Then we played the song again (pretended to play) while the techs got some close-up shots. So, whenever you see us close-up we are actually miming it, but they do such a good job that you can't notice it.

Here are the videos:

If I am in a band can I record a live music video at STAGE-TUBE?

If you have a band and are interested in doing a STAGE-TUBE video then you should contact these guys at . I would recommend this to anyone as it is good experience and lots of fun to do. The guys there are really professional and do a great job. Be warned though, there is a rumour that there is a 3 month waiting list, so you better get emailing them now.

Please visit their website to see what other bands they have recorded already. Bands they have recorded that I would like to give a mention are: Chochukmo, Karat, In Love and Pain, Supper Moment, Velvette Vendetta, and heaps more... so check them out at
