Had such encouraging feedback to the first IndyRs vox pop video that we recorded another over the weekend. Special contribution from Rafa, our man stateside!
Audio issues now fixed vs first one.
Gonna get Clive on one soon hopefully!

Nice one Saycey, good that the audio problems fixed. The stand-out problem now is the dead noise time during the time the questions are on screen. **These periods of limbo HAVE to be filled with backing track noise. For example Eat My Goal by Iron Lung or QPR The Greatest as used on Open All R's podcast - "Queens Park Rangers are on the up and up /And they're heading for the European Cup" - might be good.
**The 14 seconds of silence until Fran spoke only lead to doubts that A)the vid is properly working and B)it seems amateurish. **I also think it would be better if the questions were spoken out loud by a narrator (yourself?).This would make it more memorable & emphasise what the questions exactly were.
**The picture quality on the video of your Stateside punter Rafa was a little disconcerting.Whereas most of his head was of a dull beige colour matching his shirt, it then appeared that marmalade orange paint had been smeared around his mouth,chin & neck regions.
**Be more ruthless editing of punters/interviews. Scrap any that are repeating what another Vox Popper has already said or they are stating the bleedin obvious. Get controversial or humorous or original interviewees in.
**I do hope you're going to do it also at other Bush pubs apart from The Crown and Sceptre.
**Have another look at the Winkball QPR fan Vox Pop vids already out there on YouTube especially from last season.Don't rip em off totally - make yours distinctive by all means - but just note & realise how good they are compared to yours at present. For starters they seemed to have more funny,eccentric humorous interviewees than yours and the interviewer/host themselves have a bit of personality which makes for better viewing.
** Like all LFWers I will be all agog in trembly anticipation of any prospect of words with 'The Greatest Living Writer On QPR Today',our very own Mr Clive. Perhaps you could ask him in mock pompous,pretentious Melvyn Bragg Radio 4 style: "What is the well-spring - the weltanschaung or world-view,if you will, - behind your continued extremely cynical,dyspeptic and frankly misanthropic views about the state of modern day football that you've been displaying since an early age? Was your father a mardy miserable b'staad too? " Or then again probably best not. (Oh and although,as we know ,CW's got a great boat for radio, do tell him to bring his best fitting rug - not the Forsyth,bring the Wogan - and some volumizing spray to cover the rapidly receding hairline probs for the camera.Don't want to scare any horses.)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
{{And also on the other hand you could totally ignore this surfeit of advice from some desmond punter who's never come close to making a vox pop video in his life. It's fine as is.}}
Keep at it,looking forward to the next one.
Would also look forward to interviews with the likes of Finney - plenty of humorous personality there! - David McIntyre,Paul Warburton and Indy R's wise owl Steve Russell.

Cheers 18stone for that comprehensive feedback!
Remember this is only the second and I am learning very quickly all the time!
Completely take your point about the music and silence. Issue is I'm paranoid about using copyrighted music. I work in websites and I've seen how aggressive rights holders can be. My firm once received a four-figure bill from Getty for a tiny crop we used of one of their images. Suggestions for ways around this welcome!
Yes we will do other locations but we have to run before we can walk. I'm not a pre-match regular in any boozer and the C&S feels very comfortable for now.
Hoping to do an 'Irish Rs' special at the Charlton game as they are coming over en masse for that one.
