Video accompanies 21 of Madonna’s 22-song concert and includes a montage of President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Saddam Hussein and North Korean leader Kim Jong Il, a sketch of the New York skyline that appears to be drawn real-time as she sings, “I Love New York,” and a rider falling off a horse, referencing her 2005 accident. (There are also X-ray and MRI images of her bones taken after the accident, an inside Madonna joke, Harvey said.)
Harvey’s operation includes a nine-person crew, 22 hard drives, six digital video cameras and two miles of video cable. He manages and manipulates images and video using Adobe Production Studio, a suite of software including Adobe’s After Effects, Premiere Pro and Photoshop programs.
“It’s the savior,” Harvey said of the software. “Without it I’d be dead in the water. We would not be able to do our jobs.”
