Thoughts I Have While Conducting My Show

- I'm not that interesting; hence why nobody watches me.
Keepin' it real. I hope I'm not alone in such thoughts. The glare made a weird effect but luckily it's not on my face so we can ignore it, yeah? Special thanks to Jazmine for letting me tape a camera to her marimba :)
Recorded on Nov. 12, 2016 at our Battle of the Bands encore performance. Here is a video of the actual show: • Moorpark High School M...
This is the first time I actually watched the drum major
BIG MOOD
Telling the bd
That's not good, always look at hands, they give good cues and stuff they know their stuff
Anyone else have a pink line going down their screen
Yes
@Lemmy NG I think everyone has it
this was actually somewhat helpful, lmao. I'm a freshman and the idea becoming drum major someday has always kept my interest. your expressiveness and ability to show dynamics (something our current DM doesn't do, although she's pretty good at tempo) is something I'll keep in mind. I really hope to be as good as that in senior year.
Aww thank you so much, glad I could help! Good luck!
Same here as a junior already I'm so excited for my Senior year I will be the drum major for sure
This made me laugh a few times, no offense. Some of your thoughts are just too funny. As for me, Im in a pit. I know the problems between us and drumline.
I’m terrified bc im the first drum major in many years to conduct the field show and I have no idea how anything works
You got this! Don't be afraid to do some research and ask for help! And then practice practice practice! I believe in you :)
I was super excited about this and laughing until the 2nd movement... and got really confused because that was our 3rd movement this year... and then laughed because I forgot that's a thing that bands do lol. Love from Leander!
I’m trying out for drum major my junior year this year I am beyond excited! I came across your video and you did amazing!! I’m lucky I’m getting to have a season after what has gone on but I loved watching your conducting pattern! It’s always nice to see other conducting patterns haha. :)
The nostalgia! Looking forward to getting to see you at comps this summer. Have fun at OC!
Jimmy Darrow aw thanks Jimmy!!! ❤️ I'm so proud of you for marching PC :)
Thanks :)
Trumpets, stop blaring. Bass clarinets, play louder. Drumline, to harsh. Mellophones, stay on time.
Books 4Free We don't march bass clarinets--no wonder you couldn't hear them! XD
Hey I'm Harrison I think all mellophones in all marching(not drum corps) bands are out of time.
Lowbrass keep your horns up!
What is this off time you speak of? Us Mellophones are always on time!
As a bass clarinet I can confirm
First of all love your pattern and what school are you?
Thank you for the kind words! This is Moorpark High School and I am oh-so-proud of the program ;)
Np and I can see why.
i really hope i look like you when i conduct lol. your style is so pretty to look at!
Aww thank you! I've learned a lot since then so I recommend not hitching (like I did in this video) for clarity and energy conservation!
“drumline stop rushing” we know what we’re doing and we also wish we weren’t doing it
nothing but fax
I’m a mellophone and I approve of this video
I’m currently the Drum Major for my band (a junior now) and I’m wondering what I will think about when I’m actually conducting 😅
I like the way you conduct I'm the only junior looking forward to this position in my Senior year as drum major so I'll need some tips and that's it
Okay. So I know this is old but almost all (if not all) drum majors give you a stink face if you mess up. At times they won’t even recognize it😂😂
I can’t count the times I missed a set and a drum major wanted to beat the living stars out of me.
Our drum major is on the field and he does twirling/tossing with a baton. Our directors are the only ones on the ladder, so when I clicked on this I was like ??? It’s pretty cool tho, you’re good at what you do even if I don’t really understand it lol
hi i plan on trying out for drum major and i was womdering if you have any tips
I want to be drum major but it seems intense, gotta tryhard for it
Go for it! You got this! The audition itself will be a valuable experience regardless of the outcome :)
@@celenahu6306 alright, well guess I'm gonna need to try my best! I'll try going for it next year and hopefully it'll go good thanks :)
I'm not in matching band but I Constance feel this way 😂😂
Ahh I got drum major for sophomore year and am extremely nervous (didn’t expect to actually get it) any advice?? Also I love this vid
Hi and congrats!! It's okay to be nervous - over time, you'll grow into that position. In front of the band, you just gotta fake it till you make it. Be willing to take constructive criticism and don't be afraid to ask for feedback (for conducting, leadership, etc). Most importantly, don't compare yourself to anyone else - your band directors chose you for you, so lead with confidence as your awesome self! Hope that helps 😊
@@celenahu6306 I also got drum major my sophomore year and my band directors did choose me for me- it’s like wow I really made it
I really wanna see your show now lol
I want to be a drum major so bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😢😢😭😭😭
It's definitely a lot of commitment. I'm going to audition next year.
I can relate
What division is this band?
Hey you're pretty good! I like the show too.
Aw thank you so much! I appreciate it :)
Ayyyy Moorpark im going there for a comp in November yeet
super precise but really hitchy my band directors got on to me if i accidentally hitched for a beat :/ good job tho mate lemme give you a shoulder rub lmfao
sam hernandez lol thanks. And yeah my band director later told me that my 3 pattern is hitchy. It's a common habit that even he is working to get rid of. I've worked on my conducting since then ;)
yeah personally i've never had a hitch bc of how i learned and who i learned from and my directors loved it but i've always had trouble getting my team to match be smoother. what grade are you in and are you head? the best part of being a drum major i think is at the big hits and you can literally feel the sound :') i'm gonna miss this stuff
sam hernandez now that I think about it, the person who I mimicked to learn how to conduct had a hitch! I am actually a freshman in college this year, but that video was from my senior year in high school. I was head drum major my junior year and then shared it with my buddy, Jake, the year after. This year I'm actually a conductor for the Oregon Crusaders Drum and Bugle Corps and I'm super excited for that!
Celena Hu yoooooooo that's wild congrats! and yeah who you mimick has a huge part in how you look. good luck in the crusaders this year!
sam hernandez thank you so much! 😄 Definitely check us out this season! We just announced our show today and it's gonna be awesome 🔥🔥
No disrespect but the video was kinda funny. And ur a good drum major.
Veldkamp Motorsports. Haha thanks. I like to upload content that makes people laugh ;)
i think most of that stuff during practice even though i’m a trumpet and a rookie lol is that sad?😂
dude what is this show its so pretty-
I can hear amp static.
mercy street?
omg i love P.G. this is so cool
You know it 😎
iM A tRUMpET LOL
snoozebuttonx lol I'm AbetTer oNe
coming back 3 years later go hard, coming onto my last year and i hate it
You've got a mad hitch in your pattern, what's you reason for that?
Yeahhh 😅 basically I learned it from a previous drum major that I looked up to and just copied her pattern. Later on I learned that hitches are bad (unless you're subdividing and being intentional with it) and relearned how to conduct without hitches and fixed other bad habits I had
