Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Feedback wanted-Audition tape, please help

Hi! So coming up later this month Im gonna have to be sending tapes of me playing to random places (2 long 2 explain). I did a couple practice runs this afternoon and I was wondering if you guys could take a look at one of them and just tell me what you think.


Thanks! Anything critique-wise goes (except how derpy i look- there is no flattering way to play the viola)

Re: Feedback wanted-Audition tape, please help

Can't really give any critique as I don't know the instrument. Wonderful playing though.

Only suggestions I can think of, that are optional + don't affect the performance, is horizontal video, + a bit closer to the cam. lmao
(Extremely unnecessary critique seeing as this is just the 1st practice take)

Good luck with your auditions mate.

Yeah, null, I can't believe you don't know a violin when you see one.

I for one simply cannot critique an instrument I haven't played.

I don't think he meant he didn't know what a violin was.


@pyro - that was beautiful.

Re: Feedback wanted-Audition tape, please help

i would like to inform everyone that pyro, is, in fact, playing the viola, aka not a violin.

It's even worse considering he even put it in the post...

It was really nice, I can't really critique anything though because I don't know what to even listen/look for.

Re: Feedback wanted-Audition tape, please help

It'll be difficult to tell you what we think without knowing what kind of places you'll be sending the tape(s) to.
For example, there's quite a difference between trying to get into a prestigious music school and showing your grandparents what progress you've made.
And even then it'll be difficult to tell you more than "nice" and "keep practicing".
There are several viola forums where I'm sure you'll get much better feedback about your actual playing.
Or maybe you just wanted to show us your skillzz. Although the thread subject says "please help".
I guess what Null wrote, make it a horizontal video to prevent it being 50% ceiling.


I have permanently left the game and forum.
EE is an entertaining game and I enjoyed playing it...
...but it's time for me to move on.

Re: Feedback wanted-Audition tape, please help

I should have clarified- I guess I was mainly looking for advice on how to improve the filming/audio stuff. Like the horizontal video suggestion. I couldn't decide how close to be to the camera either //forums.everybodyedits.com/img/smilies/tongue. I realize that there's not a lot you guys can tell me but I figured any feedback would help. And who knows, maybe there are Some musicians here, so I figured what the hell.


As for the other point, I'm already in music school. This is for summer festivals.

Re: Feedback wanted-Audition tape, please help

Don't have the camera at an up/down angle.  Have it level with your face.

Use GoPro and zoom it to your fingers, then play something faster, like real fast! I think that could look cool //forums.everybodyedits.com/img/smilies/big_smile
