Knebworth Park Professional Footage Montage(Snippets)

http://postimg.org/image/p5y6gw7qf/

The screen footage has Roger out of shot just as John comes into frame, the Pro shot footage has them on screen enough to overlap Freddie.
And the pro shot is a wider view too.

It's amazing, totally unlikely and unbelievable but true, two cameras.

Absolutely right about this! I always thought it was the same camera but it isn't the Doro camera is literally right next to the big screen camera!

Made a quick comparison video: http://youtu.be/oa0IetxqJn8

^ You can also recognize it's a different cam given that the Queen one zooms earlier and cut that triangle thing at the border, while the DoRo footage makes a zoom a little later, cutting the triangle in a different way and later.

Exactly

Hey fr1986, could you maybe upload the original file before it was uploaded to YouTube? :)

Yup, I concede.

Great detective work, guys.

Obviously I might have missed some snippets here and there, but I went through pretty much the whole of Knebworth a few years ago, I'm sure no pro stuff that's currently available matches the screen. That's not to say it doesn't exist, but nothing of what we have seen is from the screen.

I'm an obsessive saddo in my own way.

My money is on something very close to this regarding placement:

I can't find one proving they were both there when queen were playing, But that's Quo, same day, place time and crew, it proves both the Doro and the Screen cameras were about at the left side of the stage.

EDIT:

Look at the left side of the stage. You can just about see Both of them and later on the the night too.

There was a professional camera on a tripod pointing at the stage from the guest enclosure too. Whether that was filming the entire evening I don't know but it was there that afternoon with no one by it - I remember that... It was up against the first fence (there were two, an inner and an outer one with struts in between them holding each apart.

The question is... over the last 30 years, there is any video or documentary showing even a couple of seconds of the big screen feed?

If i'm not mistaken, to date, the only pro-footage we have seen of Knebworth comes from the DoRo crew and TV news.

Is not something definitive of course, i'm thinking in how the footage from Wembley first night was kept in darkness till the first release of Wembley in DVD.

Wasn't the friday gig of Wembley only released on the 25th anniversary edition? My old Wembley DVD doesn't have that gig. Looking at the friday show it's pretty apparent it was initially considered as a rehearsal for the saturday show, as far as filming is concerned. There's less cameras rolling and some of the filming and camera-angles are a bit dodgy. Musically I think the friday gig shadows the saturday one though.

On the 2003 Bonus Disc, there was A Kind Of Magic, Vocal Improv with audience, Another One Bites The Dust, Tutti Frutti, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, God Save The Queen. :)

Ah yes, you're right. I had forgotten those bonus tracks.

For the first time in years I listened to the complete show. It's probably my favourite magic tour show. It has both the great playing and a crazy audience. It would be a stunning live album. And any footage from that day is a lovely bonus.
