I must admit you guys do have some of the best camera work I have seen yet. In my opinion, you dont need to have the nastiest tricks in your video (but it does help) to have a kickass video. You just need the right balance of footage, editing and overall quality. Keep up the good work!

 

that is some really camera work!!! Looks like a cool video.

 

Well, the camera work is definetley good... But I gotta admit, it makes me a bit dizzy to watch

 

Camera work rocks but like nagz said it's dizzy to watch.
The same technique is used on skateboarding and snowboarding movies but they use it as a intro or endo of a sequence. The rider is always on full screen while doing the trick.
Combine it more with the 'usuall' shots and it will be a editing masterpiece... maybe
I like it.

 

haven't watched it yet....damn .MOV files! Work PC's don't have quicktime. Plus their managed PC's. I guess I'll have to wait until I get home to watch it.

It sounds like some fish eye effects or wide wide angle shots...am i wrong?...lol

 

i saw the trailer a month or two ago.. i liked it a lot. the camerawork and color correction/effects; both added nicely to the overall package.

i won't ramble on about my thoughts on video stuff, but having the best overall PACKAGE is much more important than having the best tricks. if you're doing backflips while parking 12's but it's filmed on your mom's intel webcam and edited by your little brother, your video is still going to appeal to very few people. good job doing it right!

props on using the dust brothers too.. i remember hearing the music and thinking "FIGHT CLUB!"

and baker, iirc.. a lot of low angle closeup fisheye shots, a lot of sweeping boom shots that transition from one side of the bike to the other during skitches and stoppies, and the whole trailer has a healthy dose of color effects added.

 

nah man ...its cool. I wasn't dizzy at all. That will bring many types of people that are in this sport or not to watch it. I like it. It flowed well.

cool ****.

 

thanks baker, that means alot coming from a great editor like yourself. If you wanna watch the rest of it. darius has like 10 copys of the original. We are redoing it into DVD and puttling a littlme more today tricks and some better stuff in it. Same guyz that shot bikerboys the movie helped film for us.
And baker a long time ago you posted something on vegas4.0 and i went and got it........its the best i have ever used. thanks

 

i have to say the camera work is complete overkill/. its cooll that u screwed a wide angle lense on but its way to much./

my $0.02

 

well first off, there is no fish eye lense, there is no camera tricks, its real simple the guy is on rollerblades filming around the bike.

I thought it was good,as long as the cuts and zoom are used proportionally with the traditional shots.

 

Tight promo, I thought the cameara work was tight, different then the norm.

good camera work for not moving.
