[Official Message] ARENA TOUR 2016 A ～MADE IN JAPAN～

[spanishfan]

Drones are noisy, using them in a concert is not only dangerous but distracting. They're funny though.

[Delirium-Zer0]

There isn't a drone on earth that wouldn't be drowned out by the sound of the concert itself. Audio pickups shouldn't be on there, sure, but the audio should come from the soundboard anyway.

That said, concerts are gonna want to use really large jibs anyway. They're far easier to control and much more reliable, even if the arm is a bit intrusive for some members of the crowd.

Drones can achieve some AMAZING shots, but for concerts the audience is at risk tbh.

[spanishfan]

I didn't mean only sound, but visual wise are distracting, I was in a concert with a drone and, for few minutes, the whole audience was watching at the drone instead the artist.
It's like using phones or cameras to record/make photos of the concert, you get easily distracted by the screens.
I'm not 100% against drones, but I prefer them only for pv's, flims, cinematographic use and so.

Drones are not good in places with a lot of wireless signals in a concentrated area. It could lose signal and crash. A good alternative is -

If anyone feels confused by drone recording, watch Winter Daily PV. Some scenes are recorded by drone.

I am still ansious for goodies, the wait is gonna kill me

Colours banner on the same spot could still be noticed from inside the train while it was approaching the station on a quite large distance, so the fact that this one doesn't stand out from just across the street says a lot about the design (considering that's the Shibuya crossing, I honestly can't think of another position where it could be better visualized than the one were the picture was taken, if you get much closer, it's gonna be too high to be easily noticed)... Tbh, if they're gonna put a banner at the Shibuya crossing, it's kinda important to make a design that stands out on no matter what side of the street you are. The Colours one did that...

No for me. That tour in 2002 damaged ayu's ear. I wouldn't want her to do another tour that damages her body.

[truehappiness]

I thought concert tour 2000 and DOME TOUR 2001 are what killed her ears.

Story goes that in concert tour 2000 she had an ear infection and didn't postpone concerts outside of like one, and the tinnitus started then...

And during DOME TOUR 2001, she had the bad fall and really bad hearing issues during rehearsals.

[kaled kalil]

Just to add to the drone subject, if they want to use dynamic camera angles, which the drone would be pretty good to do it, they would probably have to do like Madonna record some of the footage for her releases: do the same concert without the audience, so they can have the camera crew on stage without distracting the audience, and for the safety of them. (I know that it would be pretty cool to have the drone flying around and showing the public reaction, but it's not safe).

Yeah, that's what I remember. I don't recall anything about 2002 concerts affecting her hearing... At least not more than it was already damaged from previous years.

I thought it was 2002.

Thanks for the correction.

[~angel*ayumi~]

Yes I also remember it was Dome Tour 2001.
And I think I also read that the accoustic in that huge dome damaged her ears, that´s why she didn´t do another Dome Tour. (wich she easily could in 2002)
