Vj Battles!!

[telekinetix]

Me and a friend who work side by side in VJ work are considering the prospect of VJ BATTLES. We want to VJ for a night that already has residents so we suggested to the promoter that WE set up a screen on one side of the dancefloor whilst the residents set up on the other side and we BATTLE for popularity (or just for plain fun and entertainment!!).

What does everyone think on this VJ BATTLE concept? could work well to bring forward the artists individuality in VJ work and push the 'wallpaper' VJ back to skool discos where they belong! Will also be comparable to the B-Boy battle concept, could grow to incorperate all sorts of attention grabbing ideas (extra lighting, better footage, VJS in stupid costumes! who knows!)

hi!

i've organized two years ago a breakbeat/jungle party with a vj combat in it and it worked just fine.

we had two (3m*2m) screens, one on each side of the stage with th vj teams on the back (each team on one side of the dj's), there were 4 teams, 2 teams at one time , then the other 2 teams, then one team of the first round with one of the 2nd round and so on..

everybody loved it and all the vj teams (including me) found it a very nice way of showing your skills and ways of manipulating video and interpreting music.
