Description Vancouver band Grave Maker, opening night of their Canadian tour with Comeback Kid at the Plaza Club in Vancouver.

If you're into metal, their music can be found here.

There was a lot of jumping during their set, but the lighting wasnt great. Which was why out of the 15 total shots I took, 5 of which were jumping, this one was perfect.

I love it when venues know enough to use yellow or orange gels instead of red. Red just blows everything out, orange does this.

Gravemaker was first of 6 bands to hit the stage.

daleala [2008-10-15 08:54:25 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I shot for a gig that had red lights!

I had to use my flash to neutralize the blown out red parts... the on camera flash too!

It was just for fun and practice though, still not up to the task of charging for shooting for people!

Did you do much free shooting for gigs before now?

straightfromcamera In reply to daleala [2008-10-16 00:38:59 +0000 UTC]

yeah, i haaaaaaate red

i still do alot of free shooting, for the bigger touring bands, but its the locals who pay me

daleala In reply to straightfromcamera [2008-10-16 06:51:19 +0000 UTC]

Woah! I would have thought it was the other way around, do it free for the local yokels, and charge the bigwigs!

straightfromcamera In reply to daleala [2008-10-16 07:10:11 +0000 UTC]

The big wigs i have to apply for, then i can sell the photos to magazines and stuff, so its a harsh market.

the locals will usually hire me to shoot for them
