Default Ol' Railroad Blues - original fingerpicking blues (in HD)

Just a little standard blues progression fingerpicked. This is also my first video with the green screen.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Background was done with green screen. I bought 10X12 green screen cloth and lit it properly and just played the tune in front of it. I used my Zi8 Kodak to record video. I used SM81 Shure mic trough my Profire M-Audio interface to record separate audio.
Then I imported video into my Vegas Pro program and replaced green screen background with images you see in the video. It's actually very simple.
Next thing was to sync audio with video which is also easy.

Now, you could use built in mic that came with Zi8 but it;s not that good. Or you can hook up external mic to Zi8 and record it that way. Then you wouldn't have to sync audio with video. I just like to run audio trough my pre amp and record it separately. Much more control and way better sound.

Next time I will try it with video or motion background. I am just afraid that it might distract viewers from the the playing and the main subject; which is usually me.
