is it just me or does it seem like the violinist is holding the violin backwards? (upside-down, however you wanna say it )

It's their recording software. Chinny had the same problem.

It's common to video recordings made with a web-cam, like the iSight on a Macintosh or similar. You get a mirror-image.

Yeah ya have to change the settings on some cameras when you turn the view finder backwards to see while you're recording or hey they could just be left handed twins. I've been using iSight on my Mac and don't have that problem. Or do you mean the bow looks upside down with the girl on the right? She is just moving her bow angle and the timing of the recording (video verses audio) makes it look like that. Those girls are pretty good...

even if they were left handed the strings would be on the wrong side of the violin..listen to the high notes and look at what strings she's playing.

They are right handed. It is backwards video like FM said about Gs post.

They are on the site kickstarter.com that I support. No G they are playing right either way. The low notes are on top as it would be for a right or left hander.

And Hey Late Bloomer those are window blinds behind them. I don't see a doorknob on Gs post ;-)

Here's them again:

You have to look real close under the bow arm of the girl on the left to see the door knob. But your video convinces me that they  are right handed.

OH!

LA LA LAND?

 

I was reading JA x6 (I think that's yes in a language?)

Then I looked at the bottom row and it clicked.  :D

On "Cheap eBay violins" … Just tell people they are like a Charlie Brown Christmas Tree.  With a little love, and some practice, they too can be made beautiful.
