Bob Harris - News Of The World (OGWT Documentary Compilation - UPDATED)

@ 2:49 there's a cut and repeat.

@ 31:26 the audio is four bars behind, as May is already on the diminished chord a second later.

@ 1:05:39 the Houston caption says Dec 10 when it should be the 11th.

@ 1:10:22 Nitrodrum once pointed out to me that this footage must be from another night (Fort Worth maybe?) as you can see the dry ice is still flowing when May goes on, but on the other Houston source the ice has already dissipated.

And there are a few volume fluctuations from clip to clip, but nothing too distracting.

What a joy it is watching this footage, even just to pick it apart. The fact that there is ten minutes of them recording and mixing Champions is absolutely monumental. But who knows how many more hours of it will just never see the light of day.

I'd kill to see the uncut footage of them at rehearsal working out the setlist and the pacing of the show. I love how you can see the Races LP sitting on the piano so Mercury can memorize the lyrics.

You've done a great job. A massive amount of work to compile it from countless sources. Guys like you, Chief Mouse, Greg, and Simon deserve the millions of views you've gotten on YouTube.

Again thank you for all your input!

@ 2:49 - Throughout this compilation, if there is any voiceover commentary on a clip but the audio can still be heard underneath I have kept this audio intact, this just so happened to be the same audio clip repeated twice as both the 'Rock The World' TV edit and 'The American Dream' DVD have slight alterations. For any clips that don't have the original audio somewhere, I've just dubbed music over it :)

@ 1:10:22 - So it could be from either Atlanta or Fort Worth as we know for definite that some stuff was filmed from those gigs. I'm gonna lump it with the Fort Worth concert just, as that's where I have placed the WWRY bit of Freddie, but we'll never fully know for certain what comes from where.

Ok, I think that's correct now? If you come across anything else, feel free to let me know, I want this compilation to be as perfect as possible! -Chin

V5 is now up for feedback :) -Chin

@Chin,

Here are some corrections:

18:23 shadow and music playing over Freddie talking
18:40 a split second of a ballet clip (before Roger’s interview)

1:05:56 Houston Dec 11, 1977 Soundcheck etc
1:06:34 Wrong clip of Omni in Atlanta in between Houston clips
1:06:42 Soundcheck, Houston 1977

1:10:58 and 1:10:59 Duplicate
1:10-1:12 still has a lot of different parts of song clips

That’s it for now. Great job with the video!!! Can’t wait to see the final version.

I forgot to say that I like the fact that we don't see the pictures of the band from a completely different period while there's no video sometimes during some moments of the interviews. Also it's amazing to have some footage of the band doing Sleeping On The Sidewalk, even if it's only a few seconds.

I'd add the address of Freddie and Roger's home for the interview inctoductions. Freddie was living at 12 Stafford Terrace, Kensington. I'm not sure about Roger.

Apart from that, I don't know how it can be improved. It's pretty much as good as it can be!

Hey guys could you give feedback to pma? He tried to do some automatic colorization, it looks "interesting" : http://www.queenzone.com/forums/1590626/tool-that-allows-ai-powered-colorisation-of-b-w-videos.aspx
