Little Shop of Horrors (18 recordings)

Trading notes: Shot from 3rd row mezzanine, beautiful video with lots of closeups. Digital video, 1st generation from the master. Video includes Today Show: Suddenly Seymour; Kerry Butler on Today Show: Somewhere That's Green; performances from Grand Central Station and Virgin Megastore signing in NYC. A Different copies circulate: master copy is 4.05 GB (first 5 screenshots). 3.0 GB copy has cleaner video but none of the above extras (last screenshot).

Trading notes: Very nice capture. Follows the action well with few coverups. Includes Theater Talk segment.

Trading notes: Filmed in 4K semi-blindly, so many parts needed to be cropped down to 1080p in post-editing; external audio. Obstruction on the sides of the stage (e.g. when actors are at the stage right door, they cannot be seen at all). A few scenes were filmed a little too darkly, a few too bright, and a few zooms are a little sudden/jagged (sorry). Skylar Astin's first performance as Seymour. A sold-out, very enthusiastic audience.

Trading notes: Very good phone boot of this incredible show. All action captured, although some of the darker scenes are a little hard to make out, but that's less than 8% of the show, I'd say. Honestly, you would not know anyone here was an understudy. They were all exceptional. The most reactive audience I've ever seen in NYC. I swear at least half of the audience was in a production of the show at some point in their lives with how much they were dancing and lip-syncing along. So much applause and laughter. Bonus that it's Skylar Astin, cuz c'mon, he's adorable in everything.

Master's notes: Nice 4K capture of Rob McClure as Seymour. This was filmed very close to the stage at an angle, so the far left of the stage is mildly obstructed and the video is overall not as well shot as usual. Some semi-significant moments of wandering and occasional unfocusing. Includes curtain call, audio is fed from external source.

Master's notes: Matt's Seymour debut!

Trading notes: Filmed in 4K, released as 1080p and 4K. Filmed using the alternate method. Moderate amount of head obstruction throughout, but Lena Hall's scenes shot without obstruction as much as possible.

Trading notes: Filmed in 4K, released as 1080p and 4K. Filmed using the alternate method, but well-filmed (perhaps my best Little Shop video yet). Occasional obstruction from railing on wide shots or when action is furthest downstage. A bit of obstruction from my sleeve in early scenes until it is adjusted. Blackout for a couple minutes at the beginning of Act 2. Joy Woods is FANTASTIC as Audrey, and Drew Gehling is ridiculous as Orin! Includes curtain call.

Master's notes: Great 4K capture of Joy’s phenomenal performance as Audrey! A lot of Act Two is wide blindshot due to ushers, from the beginning of the act to the middle of Suppertime and most of Audrey’s final scene. Most action is still captured. Audio fed from external source.

Trading notes: Filmed in 4K, released as 1080p and 4K. Filmed using the alternate method, minimal audience obstruction, but there is obstruction from the railing due to positioning, so action that occurs low to the ground is not well seen. Sleeve occasionally blocks part of the side of the frame. Audio-only for opening number. A couple of short blackouts for safety. Some scenes are zoomed out a tad more than ideal, but nearly all action can be seen. Fun getting to see Corbin & Constance as Seymour & Audrey, respectively. Bryce may have become even more ridiculous as Orin & Others. Includes a bit of curtain call and most of BC/EFA speech.

Trading notes: Excellent 4K capture of Corbin and Constance! Some wandering/readjustment and unfocusing throughout. Audio fed from external source.

Master's notes: Partial 4K capture of the new cast. Includes the entirety of Act One and 12 minutes of Act Two, up to Mushnik’s death. Act Two is very messily filmed, more wide and wandering than usual. Full audio is included in the folder. Audio is fed from external source.

Master's notes: perfectly serviceable phone video from the second row. the far left and right are cut off (no shot of either stoop), two heads cover some of the bottom of the screen and the first act is tilted a *little* too far up. this happened because i forgot to set my audio at sweeney earlier in the day. will i ever do this again? absolutely not.

Master's notes: Great stage-shot phone video from the front left orchestra. Very few moments missed that are on the extreme right or left of the stage. Slight dropout after Suddenly Seymour with audience member being sat in our row. (Seriously, usher? You let someone in 15 min into act 2 for the first time? WTF). Dark scenes are a little muddy. Excellent performance from Nicholas Christopher. Includes video, audio (tracked and untracked), and cast board photo.
