Yes - The Story of Drama (and the ’79 Paris Sessions) Documentary

An in-depth look at the ill-fated 1979 Paris recordings by Yes and their subsequent Drama album. This video also discusses the XYZ project with Jimmy Page and other Trevor Horn productions. After researching / writing the script, I then set about hours and hours of sourcing and individually cleaning up / colourising photos, all of which have to be re-made to fit the aspect ratio of this screen. It’s a slow, manual and tedious task. After recording my voice I then weave the sounds in and out of it, this is the fun part were the general shape of the video comes to life. Finally, I glue it all together, which, on my computer, is a real slog. The software glitches constantly under the sheer strain and it takes an age with software that I am basically learning as I use. The reward is seeing the comments roll in and knowing that the video will bring so much pleasure to people. I suspect one day this channel will be wiped by the copyright bots but until then I’ll continue to make them, perhap
