A live representation really needed Steve, and capable\u00a0video, to capture it.<\/p>\n<p>Steve and I, along with Jeff Baker on percussion, played a local house concert last month. Our pal and videographer Richard Newman &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newmanmediaworks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">who does amazing work<\/a> &#8211; was on hand. He brought three cameras with him, including a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.techradar.com\/us\/news\/photography-video-capture\/cameras\/gopro-goes-faster-and-further-with-its-new-line-up-1267189\" target=\"_blank\">GoPro Hero4<\/a>.

And it was nice to finally see what a GoPro can do, both with video AND audio. (I&#8217;m sworn to secrecy, so I can&#8217;t tell you that most of the sound in this clip came directly from the GoPro itself, which is about the side of a credit card. I love it when technology works in your favor.)<\/p>\n<p>We have lots of material from that night in the can. Or in the chip. Or spinning on our respective hard drives. (What IS the proper term these days? I&#8217;m still getting used to saying &#8220;video&#8221; instead of &#8220;film&#8221; as a verb.)<\/p>\n<p>Anyway. It was a great evening with a very lively crowd. More to come. Stay tuned.<\/p>\n<iframe src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.michaelgaither.com%2Fhome%2Fbehind-the-video-shes-my-superpower%2F&amp;layout=standard&amp;&amp;width=800&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowTransparency=\"true\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:800px;height:30px;margin-top:5px;\"><\/iframe>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This was a fun one, but it took awhile to wrangle it into a proper live video. &#8220;She&#8217;s My Superpower&#8221;, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5920","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-video"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5920","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5920"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5920\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5927,"href":"https:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5920\/revisions\/5927"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5920"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5920"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5920"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
