Getaway 2011: photos, videos, audio

05 Oct 11 - 11:47 PM (#3234669)
Subject: Getaway 2011: photos, videos, audio
From: Genie

Some of us are starting to process and post photos, audio clips, and photos from the 2011 Getaway so I thought I'd start a thread for that.   It's much easier to find them this way than when they are buried in the general discussion thread.

Here's a first installment:

The Bear Sisters (ClaireBear & Frieda R.) - The Nightingale Song at Getaway concert 2011

I have also started a Getaway 2011 photo album on my facebook page. I think you can find it via this link if you're one of my Facebook friends. (If you're not, just ask, and I'll add you.)

I'm in the process of adding more photos to my Facebook Getaway album. It is viewable only by my "Mudcat friends," "Getaway friends," and "folkie friends" as well as to a few of my close friends and family.   Of course, if anyone wants to copy any of these screen caps, it's up to you where and with whom to share them.

The only video I've posted on YouTube so far is ClaireBear and Frieda's. I will need to finish processing them (including some sound tweaking via Garage Band to clarify the sound in some cases, e.g., where it wasn't loud enough) and then get permissions before putting the clips on YouTube.

If anyone who performed in the Getaway concerts wants to give me the OK ahead of time, I will post their video(s) on YouTube as soon as I get them processed, and I will post the links here.   For other people, I can post the videos on MediaFire so you can see and hear them before you decide whether you want them shared.

So... I managed (I think) to upload the few pics I took. (My 11 year old digital camera is not communicating with its battery and was telling me good batteries were NOT good. I gave up after a few views of the Friday sing and the Sat. concert)

some Getaway 2011 photos

I began labeling 'some' of them, but I take many general views of rooms to show the setup. Others specialize in closeups of individuals, and I assume those will appear later.

This is an 'open' album, and anyone can add comments or ID people.

This is hosted at my.opera.com, which is NOT restricted to users of the Opera browser. I find it as easy to use as any photo site I know.

At my site there are photos from several previous Getaways, plus other stuff..... http://my.opera.com/extree/albums/

Let me know if anything needs updating or explanation.

On the Yahoo Groups FSGW Getaway albums we can not only add captions, but we can move photos from one album to another. A lot of the pics now are in the wrong album (e.g., a pic from the Peace Cabin late night jam or a workshop in the Nature Center may be in the Saturday night Concert album so far) but it's pretty easy to move them into an existing album or start a new album.

YouTube videos are starting to be posted (with permission of the performers). Lisa Null's "Going Home To Georgia" song is ready to be shared as soon as Lisa checks it out and gives the OK. (David Scheim has already said it's OK to share his videos.)

And I've redone ClaireBear and Frieda's (The Bear Sisters') "The Troubadour Song" video to correct the song title.   Here's the link to that one:

Well, "Guest, now where were we," (I'm guessing you sometimes go by the name of Sandrolin - or is it Gene?), there are lots of folks posting pics in the Yahoo albums, so who knows how the pics end up mis-identified as to where they're from? I've probably posted some in the wrong place too.

Yeah, time's of the essence, but sometimes "real life" takes priority, especially after several days in Brigadoon.

Anyway, here's another installment from the concert videos:

John Townley: "Pokarekare Ana (Here In My Heart" from the Sunday night concert.

There is a little bit of distortion in the audio (probably because I couldn't reset the sound input level for each new performer and some people stayed closer to their mics than others). I've tweaked it as best I could, and at least you can hear how pretty the song is and enjoy John as a performer.

Thanks guys, for me, it was wonderful to meet you in person. I'd love to be able to have you over here to a session at my place. I think the Getaway is the closest to an international Mudcat singaround as we can get. It has added something to my mudcatting here too, made it all a bit more real. Some catters were very different to how I imagined them, some totally just as they cyber-seem. It was also great to meet people like Rose, Colin and Olivia, and to swap songs with them. Hanging out and harmonising with Mudcatters is a lovely thing to do. Unfortunately I came on the back of a trip to Europe and the UK, and was a bit jetlagged. I didn't see as much as I hoped because of some random snoozing (eg I missed the Sunday night concert!). Severn was incredibly kind and good humoured in looking after me before and after the festival, and we exchanged quite a few CDs. I actually got to see MMario working on some knitting, and to see the amazing shawl he made for Jacqui for her marriage to Kendall. Kendall is the sweetest man you could meet, and Jacqui a perfect match. Performers at Getaway were friendly and interesting. I do hope to come back again, and hope to spend more time in the Peace Cabin.

Yeah, Freda. What ClaireBear said.

I know we ended up in a couple of workshops for a short time, but it saddens me that I really didn't get to hear you sing, after having been 'housemates' and carpool mates with you before the Getaway.
I know Oz is bit more than a stone's throw from Maryland, but I do hope you'll be back to Getaway for some future Getaways (and bring some other Aussies - e.g., Allison - with you).   And if -- WHEN -- you do come back, do be sure to hang out in the Peace Cabin sometimes in the wee morning hours.

Wow, these are great.    Already two of my top highlights from the Getaway.    I loved the flirting song by Frieda and her sister---just wonderful stage business especially.   

And the Maori song was just transporting--both in Maori and in English, and so much fun to sing along with.   You could just feel the balmy breezes. That one was way at the top of my picks for the weekend--though it is really hard to choose.

I give permission for my Saturday and Sunday performances (all of 'em), and am sure Pete has no problem with his Saturday number being shown.

Subject: RE: Getaway 2011: photos, videos, audio
From: Genie

To speed up the process of getting the videos from the 2011 Getaway concerts (and jams) shared, here's a suggestion:

If you have the ability to do audio-video processing on your videos, let me know, and I will send you your raw video (no cropping, captions, sound adjustment, etc.) very shortly, if you send me an e-dress or via Facebook if we're "friends" there.   

Then you can process your own video any way you like and you can decide if, where, and with whom to share it.   If you don't have a way to share it online (e.g. a YouTube channel), you can send your processed video back to me and I'll put it up on YT, either as "unlisted" (only the people who are given the URL can see it) or as "public" (searchable).

Also, Dennis Cook has audio directly from the concert sound system, and he'll send that to me soon. If the audio from my built-in MacBook mic isn't good enough on the video I took, Dennis's audio can be overdubbed. (The synchronization is a bit tricky but doable.)

Anyway, it's likely to take me a while to get all the videos processed because I have to do things like earn a living and make more music, but I will get them all processed in time. Sending the unprocessed 'footage' to people who can do their own processing will mean more videos can be shared sooner.

"Heaven's a Bar".    Gawd, what a wonderful song. Does he have it on CD anywhere?   Should have asked him.    I'd buy his CD just for that song--and with just him and the concertina. Perfect.

You can contact John here, Ron: www.goldenhindmusic.com. There's a link for contacting him and/or Tony.
This is how I reached John for permission to share the video. The website may also tell whether this song is on one of their CDs.
