Not quite.
If there is leftover pasta, we usually throw it away. However, if there are leftover anchovies, we keep them, in order to be incorporated into a future dish. So the leftover footage was more like the anchovy part of the filming (we threw the pasta bits away). Of course, depending on the way you approach cooking, or indeed film making, you might not have any leftovers whatssoever, but I kinda like the idea of doing a dish entirely from leftovers.

needs some bikini clad chicks with biggggg butts, some low-riders with hydraulics, and very chubby dudes. This will make the viewer feel that if they listen to Shellac, they can be corpulent and still get 20 chicks in bikinis with biggggg butts to hang out with them...

don't get too serious though, it spoils the fun

i respectfully disagree. being earnest is what it's all about, trying to do the very best job you possibly can.

Whereas I always had the feeling that serious musicians are like honest politicians. They simply don't exist. It just doesn't go together very well.
I mean, to me Rock'n'Roll started to become really boring in the early seventies, when people took it way too serious and claimed Rock had to be art and not the primary teenage attack it started out as.
I guess, every heavy metal band is completly serious when they team up the philamonic orchestra of their choice and everyone does most likely the best job they can. Unfortunately, it's always crap.
Bu of course, that's just one way of looking at it.

Wait, wait, wait. Let me get this straight. You are in the band Shellac? Are you the angry one or the short one?

He's not really angry, is he? I mean, basically they are just gentle kittens, aren't they? And the short one is not that short either. He is just sitting down most of the time.

I liked the Idea the video. It was nicely cut to the music. Good work!

At least you didnt make this....

jeeze louise, that was genuinely hideous, what i saw of it anyway.

not to beat a dead horse, but i wonder how musicians and the like feel when they see people do stuff like this?

somehow a bad interpretation seems like more of a bastardization/piss-take than something intentionally disrespectful. then again, i suppose a seasoned artist wouldn't really give a fuck. maybe they're used to this sort of thing and in the habit of looking the other way/not paying any attention at all. plus, can you really fault someone who honestly doens't know any better for not, umm, knowing any better? can you? i dunno. but suffice it to say it feels good to be unknown all of a sudden.

I think they use to call that call that "Music Television".
