About this product
Product Information
This short-subject documentary is a behind-the-scenes look at the conception and creation of the Grateful Dead's landmark promotional music video for "Touch of Grey." As this was the band's first attempt at creating a visual representation of a specific song, much of Dead Ringers: Touch of Grey deals with the copious and somewhat methodical preparations for the live action shoot -- which was filmed in front of an actual audience May 9, 1987, at the Laguna Seca Raceway in Monterey, CA. In addition to their performance role, the band is seen conferring with video coordinator/director Gary Gutierrez and the various puppeteers. They discuss both the esoteric concept of being portrayed in marionette form as well as the more logistical obstacles encountered in replicating the characteristics and idiosyncrasies of the musicians. Each respective bandmember was assigned a team of personnel -- ranging from the designers to the physical puppet animators. One of the greatest challenges addressed involves the visual transition between the real musicians -- who are shot lip-syncing to the studio recording -- and their skeletal counterparts. As the finished product reveals, the continuity between the edited shots is superior and the images are intuitively edited together to create the illusion of a seamless performance. After several airings on MTV, Dead Ringers: Touch of Grey was issued as a VHS home video which has been out of print since the mid-'90s. ~ Lindsay Planer

- -***2 (1)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseIt sounds incredible! I love it so much! I’ve been looking for this album for a very long time but it was pretty expensive. I came here and found it a lot cheaper! The shipping was very fast as well, and the packaging is safe and fit! And is just as described, thank you!Reply from: dharmarick- Feedback replied to by seller dharmarick.- Feedback replied to by seller dharmarick.I'm glad you're happy. I had this album priced for more money but no one bought it. I dropped the price and now you're the owner. I still have plenty of things acquired over a my long life that I can sell. Classic rock is my wheelhouse. Feel free to write me if you're looking for anything if eBay will permit. It doesn't hurt to ask.
