We’ve been wanting to do this for a long time—splice live interview footage with live band footage and making a video. There have been obstacles. Namely, we didn’t know anything beyond pushing record and stop. Basic video editing is still a wee bit of a mystery at HQ. Enter George Rager.
Shit’s all fancy. He made all the animations, edited it, and got all the sound levels the same. So, without further ado, here is a snippet of the Night Birds interview that was conducted at Razorcake HQ, 2012, with live footage from VLHS.
