| Late Night Improv - Part 2 - 551 sec
Part 2 of a late night improvisation session recorded in August 2007, by James Provan & Mike Plenty.
We are using two midi keyboards wired up to an iMac running Reason 3.0 - we didn't rehearse this and we are making it up as we go along. All parts played live, so it's a little rough! We filmed it with 3 cameras.
I am the dude with black hair.

| Piano Improv by James Provan - 286 sec
This is me improvising on a piano. Okay, there are some bad notes and stuff, but that happens when I improvise. I've been wanting to upload a video like this for quite a while now, so here you go! I don't have sheet music for this (because it's improvised) so don't ask.

| Sunrise, Aberdeen Scotland - 100 sec
I went out this morning to the beach at sunrise with my camera and this is the result.. I wasn't going to post it, but I decided what the heck.. I forgot to take my tripod mount so I had to shoot it all handheld so it looks a bit shaky.
Music is a very short piece of me playing strings on my keyboard.

| Barry's Struggle - 156 sec
This is a true story about the mistreatment of sheep in modern society. Barry has been discriminated against many times and badly mistreated by humans, this his is tale.
Music and sound all composed specially for this video by me.
This video actually is a true story because one of the sheep I used in my previous videos was actually used as a cloth by a heating engineer! He left the sheep in the attick, wrapped in a newspaper, exactly as it was in this video... and my mother rescued him.
This is the first video I edited on my new mac pro, using final cut studio 2.. it's taking me a while to get used to but I think I'm getting there.
Thanks to Nick for the Baaaa
and to my dad for playing the engineer, and my mum for washing the sheep..

| Free Hugs Scotland - 787 sec
We take the Free Hugs campaign all around Scotland.
After discovering a version of the Free Hugs video that some people did in my local city, I thought it might be fun to take it all over Scotland. I filmed the guys in Aberdeen and we went on a long day trip to Edinburgh, Glasgow and Perth.
We witnessed exactly what Juan Mann experienced, the police asked us to leave but the public stood there and defended us.
The music was written especially for the video by me, James Provan (GiR2007). Filmed and edited by me also.
The main guy in the video is John - http://www.youtube.com/user/j1j8

| Beat Soufflé - 183 sec
A song made entirely with things I found in my kitchen. It starts slow, but gets going fast! It carries a reference to my previous video 'Pancakes'.
As seen on ABC's Good Morning America!
I made this mostly to test out my new video camera for an up-coming project (It's a Panasonic DVX 100b). I'm pretty pleased with it, it's an awesome camera and I can finally stop borrowing my parents one!
I used only a video camera and Sony Vegas 7.0.

| I can't believe it's Christmas - 238 sec
James Provan presents...
A stop motion music video about Christmas.
WARNING - CONTAINS FLASHING IMAGES
So, I have finished Univeristy for Christmas, and I finally had the time to make a new video. No robot voice this time, instead I asked my friend Rachel for help, and she sang in the video! She is a very good singer.
Song was written by me, all of the filming and stop motion, as well as editing was done by me. Rachel helped with some lyrics too =)
Special thanks to my family for putting up with cameras everywhere, and for dancing like idiots =)

| Pancakes: vocals demo - 105 sec
This is a video of me showing you how I can play my vocals on my keyboard. You can also see the program I use which is Reason 3.0. Notice how I can change the sound of my voice with the "shift" controller. You can also see an equaliser graph of my voice. This video is just a technical demo, It's not supposed to be groundbreaking. I thought some people may find it interesting, and it will tie you over untuil my next proper video which will be done in a week or two =)

| The Garden - 295 sec
We're in the garden, baby! This took one month to film and edit!
Lyrics:
When you're mowing the lawn on a Sunday, and your lawnmower breaks
You can't just leave it unfinished, you'll have to find another way.
You're friends will help if they can, especially if they are a hungry man. A hungry man!
We're in the garden, baby! We're in the garden
We're in the garden, baby! We're in the garden
First we had a broken lawnmower, now we have a deranged leaf blower.
The leaves are scared, they run from the predator, they start to climb a tree.
We're in the garden baby, we're in the garden

| Four hands, one keyboard - 366 sec
My friend Mike came to stay and we ended up recording ourselves improvising on the keyboard. I have dark hair and Mike has ligher hair if you are wondering.. This is not a follow up to 'Pancakes' - we are working on that and it should be up shortly. We were not intending to upload this, but decided that it might be interesting to some people.
I couldn't stop laughing when Mike got a bit over-enthusiastic with the saxophone =)
