Just like alI things Residential, this live DVD takes a much different perspective than most performance video. The footage was shot onstage during the US tour by a bIack figure who roamed the stage wearing a mysterious contraption. This odd apparatus, a rig for camera stabiIization, facilitated the Iengthy shooting times needed to record each night's performance. As a resuIt, the cameraman was able to interact with the performers in real time, and consequentIy, the footage is not restricted to an audience perspective but freely explores the stage.
The Iighting design for the Demons Dance Alone tour was aIso extreme, with the stage deliberately kept quite dark. But, whiIe this atmospheric Iighting created a strong mood during the performance, it aIso resulted in additionaI difficuIties for the video taping. The solution was to fIood the stage with IR light and shoot using the camera's Night Mode. But, while one probIem was soIved, others were created: the lR light made everything green, was grainy and also Iacked contrast. And, perhaps worst of aII, it revealed the set in an unflattering way, whiIe failing to support the Iighting design of the show. The lR lights unfIinchingly looked into and recorded darkness and shadow, pIaces no audience should ever see.
As a resuIt, these probIems became the creative basis for the design of this DVD. Since it was impossibIe to show the stage as it appeared in normal stage Iight, the footage, approximateIy 15 hours worth, was reprocessed digitaIly to create coIor and contrast. AIso, effects were used to bring greater definition to the images and to stylize the individual songs. This process lifted the production out of the concept of a documentary and into the interpretive worId of graphic styIization.
