I’ve been to a few music festivals this summer, most recently Houston Free Press Summer Fest. It was cool, hot as ballsack, but still worth the 40 bucks me and my girlfriend each paid for a ticket (we got ours late, my friends only paid $20 each). Two performers I filmed were Ra Ra Riot and Kid Sister. I shot them on my Canon 7D, using a Zoom H4 for sound. Zooms are really handy, especially when you’re using a dSLR camera, which have horrible mics (only good to help you sync when you’re editing).
Ra Ra Riot – “St Peter’s Day Parade”
Ra Ra Riot – “Too Dramatic”
Kid Sister – “I’ll House You”
Kid Sister – “Switchboard”
PS: Watch out for some horrible awkward-white-dj dancing in “Switchboard”
