The American metal band Korn wanted fan content as part of the documentation of their 30th anniversary concert. Korn’s official videographer, Sébastien Paquet set up a new workflow using the Blackmagic Camera app and Blackmagic Cloud.

“Korn have been pioneers throughout their career, from creating their own sound to creating a new musical genre to revolutionizing fan/band interactions. They blew up during the infancy of the Internet, so they’ve always embraced technology since day one. In 1998, they were the first ever band to do an online weekly video talk show from their recording sessions. So their fans were virtually in the recording studio every Wednesday afternoon with them. So whenever I hear of something that’s groundbreaking, and never been done before, I will pitch it to them!

“The Korn guys have always been technology savvy, so they immediately liked the Blackmagic Camera app to the Cloud idea for their fans. We had literally hundreds and hundreds of fans all wanting to be part of this project, and the Blackmagic Camera app being synced to Blackmagic Cloud was the way to make it all happen.

“I just love numerical data and the fans’ content totalled 11 hours of footage. So I had lots of content to work with to bring this piece to life. It was challenging no question, but the fact that Blackmagic Cloud could support that much data seamlessly was very impressive. I could just scrub through it all instantly in the DaVinci Resolve project and there were hours of stuff for me to play with.”
