Things to note:
* The red dot indicates where the source video and audio stuttered at least 7 or 8 times in the video, so i flew-in audio from other parts of the song over the parts that were destroyed.
* I did not know this song existed until a few days prior to this recording when I notetracked the drum part.
* There's a projector playing with the drum note chart on a wall in front of me, so it serves as a nice little cheat sheet, but i have to make a point to not look at it too much or else the player will see a drummer looking straight ahead at nothing in-game.
* Accuracy is not what animators and the general public are looking for. They want exaggerated, big, eye-catching movement.
* The kick drum and tom setup and their positioning & angles was specific to the drumkit in game.
* The kit was sprayed with non reflective spray, so the cameras wouldn't pick up reflections from the cymbals, wood, or hardware
* Playing drums in spandex is exhausting
Thanks for watching.
