Linkin Park’s New Video Features The Footage Of 1,500 Fans


The newest video by Linkin Park for their song “Until It’s Gone” features footage shot by fans with cell phones and cameras of the band’s performance in Milan.

According to rte.ie, Linkin Park used an Irish crowd-sourcing platform called FanFootage to compile the video. Over 1,500 Linkin Park fans attended the Milan concert and shot the band’s performance from hundreds of angles. The live Linkin Park footage was then synced using professional sound recording equipment.

You can see the video for the song off Linkin Park’s new album The Hunting Party above. The final product is an amazing collection of live Linkin Park footage spliced together with split screens and video quadrants that make for an impressive promo.

One Linkin Park’s leading men, Mike Shinoda, released the following statement about the “Until It’s Gone” video.

“The FanFootage project enables fans to use crowd-sourced content in an easy, creative and interactive way. The only difficult part was that I had to give them instructions in Italian for the first time! Thankfully, they understood what I was saying, and uploaded tons of great videos of [Linkin Park’s] performance for everyone to play and share.”

The people at FanFootage we equally excited to work with Linkin Park on the project. The CEO and Co-Founder of the company released this statement about the Linkin Park collaboration:

“We have achieved two things with this collaboration with Linkin Park – set a new record for [the] number of fan videos uploaded from a single live performance, and shown how fan filming can be harnessed positively by bands to create amazing video content together. By choosing one song from a concert and actually asking the crowd to film it, bands like Linkin Park can give their fans an opportunity to capture that moment from their unique personal perspective and create broadcast-quality video content together. It’s exciting for us to have a fantastic live act like Linkin Park make use of FanFootage and to track the huge number of fan video uploads while sitting at our desks in our Dublin HQ. We’re very proud of the results and looking forward to seeing Linkin Park use FanFootage at more of their concerts around the world.”

According to HotPress.com, FanFootage has been used by other artists besides Linkin Park. Kodaline and Bon Jovi have both utilized the advanced technology of the video compilation tool.
