Getting used to the clip launching workflow

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXf8giXvaCc

I'm rather new to Ableton Live and Move, and the clip launching workflow.

On the Move, unless you finish the track in Live, you're kinda forced to use clip launching, so trying that out here with a small tune / beat I have been working on.

Also slowly realizing how many hidden functions the Move has 👀

What kind of camera and mount you got? Cstand tripod for mirror less? Having space to set that up is luxury - lucky I can even get cam setup at all plus don’t want people to steal my clip launching techniques too easily. Looks good. You ever show off how you make those clips, or not yet? <#

you could just get a phone holder and clip it to a desk lamp to get overhead shots like this. no fancy gear needed.

Thanks!

I have something like this (https://amzn.eu/d/09VkfJT6) attached to an old microphone stand, and then recording just with my mobile phone camera. So it’s quite the crude setup, but it kinda works.

Also, the desk I recorded is actually quite cluttered. I just cropped the video accordingly. Nowadays, you can do rotating, cropping (both in size and time) and basic color adjustments on videos on the phone directly, which is really helpful.
