Director – Lane Wyrick Executive Producer – Lane Wyrick Editor – Lane Wyrick Date – August 3, 1993 Follow Lane Wyrick: Follow Billy Idol: Lane Wyrick: ''I shot this video at a Billy Idol performance in 1993 at the Glam Slam West venue in Los Angeles. He had just released his Cyberpunk CD, and I was working at the newly formed Digital Domain. We were having a company-wide celebration for our “Upstart“ visual effects production house coinciding with the 1993 Siggraph (computer animation) convention. The evening event for our employees, set up by James Cameron, featured a concert by Billy Idol and they had me videotape the full performance. I had one (Canon Hi-8) camera and captured lots of great footage that night. Six months later I finished editing this music video, but only a handful of people had a chance to see it before I moved back to the Midwest, so this video has been in storage ever since. Yes, it was all shot handheld, including the spins and camera moves. I shot it with the mindset of creating a music video, so the original footage would not make for very good viewing of the event. I used a cuts-only editing system, and the only effects I did were to turn everything black & white, and added some strobing to the video. Each edit took about 30 seconds to perform between two decks so it was very tedious, but I really had a desire to get it done despite the equipment limitations''.
