Hey Everyone,
 
I've got a brand new music video up for the song "Dreams Like These," also my first track off my upcoming second album.
 
https://www.youtube.com/w...lFAC23hZWR&index=1
 
This isn't a big production like my "If Only Tonight I Could Sleep" video... I did this one myself using public domain and stock footage (kind of like I did with my "Lights In The Sky" video a couple years ago). I'm very proud of it, and excited to be sharing new music off my second album which should hopefully be done and released by March... All done in Sonar of course. :-)
 
By the time the album is out, hopefully we'll be ready to release our next BIG music video, which is currently in pre-production.
 
Enjoy, and I'd love to hear what you think of the track and video.
 
 David

I loved them both...I wish I could do video like you...I know this is all stock CC stuff but you've got a great eye and feel putting your work together. Now let me just say this...this tune is good w/o video but the visuals really take it to the next level so to speak.....I guess for me w/o vocals my mind tends to drift so honestly I dont know how a music only would go over w/me (that's my issue not yours so dont take offense) ...but together...killer..
 
great job!

Well done again. I am not a fan of a chorusless song but this was good stuff. Video was good too. In my ears the piano melody could have been a bit louder but I listened with Koss Portapro headphones which are not so good.

Excellent song and excellent work on the video too .... enjoyed both.
 
On the song - what did you use for the drum sounds (very snappy and clean)?
On the video - so you took various stock videos and edited them into one?  What software you used for that?
 
Nice work.

That's good stuff David, I like your music a lot. Video looks great and works well. Do you mind me asking where you source your footage? Just getting into video myself.

Hey thanks everyone, I really appreciate it. I'm glad that people are liking this. I feel like I learned a lot about video editing in the process of making it... although I still can't stand  video editing haha, but at least I'm getting OK at it. But most of all I'm glad people are liking the track because this is the first piece off my upcoming second album, and I think it's a great representation of how much bigger a lot of the songs are on album #2
 
Most of the footage is public domain stuff I found at archive.org just like with my last public domain based video "Lights In The Sky" and then some of it (mainly the girl clips, there's 4 of them total that are chopped up and stuff) was purchased at videohive.net. I then chopped things up, changed the blending effects between them, added video effects and transition effects, etc etc. I'm using Vegas Pro 13 to do my editing (found an unregistered copy of Vegas 6 at a garage sale for $5 and then upgraded during a holiday sale for $150 haha. score!)
