Even In Las Vegas - A Christmas Song

I feel I've rushed the mix a bit to get this out today. Regardless would love your comments so I can put it through the refinery.
 
Merry Christmas!

    Yeah, Merry Christmas, Wayne and crew..  I enjoyed that a bunch.  Your production skills are evident.  Your musical skills are definitely worthy of praise.  Good clean recording and a lot of fun!!

    Yes all shots of me was in front of a green screen, keyed out, and I of course record the audio to Sonar and sync the two. I'll record a percussive count in like hand claps, edit them to be exactly on the beat, then as I'm recording video with audio I'm sending a mix directly to the camera via a headphone out. Then I can simply visually align the video with audio to a Sonar mix and line them up to the sample.  Makes it pretty easy to do multiple takes of video then pick and choose the good bits. Most of the time I choose the best performance sections with the comp tool and take note of which take goes where. Sometimes the visual wins out. We do what we can to make the most of what we have :)

    That was fun!  The mix sounds good here, nice arrangement.  I really liked the opening lines in the solo - very cool.    And the video was really well done - great job.
