GERRY CINNAMON – canter [live at hampden park]

An iconic song at an iconic location.


For this concatenated song edit, Gerry wanted the viewers to understand exactly how it felt to be in that 100,000-strong audience at his Hampden Park Stadium show. Allowing us to employ the workflow we had developed throughout working with Gerry to quickly put together cuts that amplified those key show moments.

The result is a song edit that show all the key moments of his anthem ‘Canter’ and displays his masterful showmanship during this career-defining moment.

How we do it

    THE MOTIVATION

    THE MOTIVATION

    During the live show, Gerry conducts the audience via his music, pyrotechnics and pedal hits. We took this premise and extended it to every edit.

    We would use close-ups of his hits and strums to trigger expansive pyro and wide shots, followed by audience response and reaction moments to transport the viewer into the 110,000-strong crowd.

    The vISUALS

    The vISUALS

    Once an initial scratch edit was created, we would send the video out of DaVinci Resolve through various pieces of analogue video hardware to distort and warp the signal.

    These clips could then be intercut with the clean footage to add energy, dirt and authentic glitches.

    THE ANTICIPATION

    THE ANTICIPATION

    Having shared a stage with Gerry several times, we’d developed a deep understanding of his stage craft. Allowing us to anticipate his every move, moment and reaction.

    This gave us viscerally engaging footage, really heightening those key performance moments in each edit.
