just a little clip i made

[Bryguy17]

I got bored yesterday and filmed myself riding around my parking lot on my BMXer. took a good hour of work for the thirty seconds of film, but i think it came out well enough.

enjoy.

Nicely done. I like the song selection and the constant scene change. Leaves no room for the viewer to get bored.

i agree with mott. just a nice smooth cruise on a bike on a sunny afternoon. cool stuff!

Very cool...

[Bryguy17]

thanks guys, glad you liked it. its kind of fun to be the only person working on a video, you get to be so controlling and nobody gets mad at you

it might get tacked on to some other videos i make, but we'll see. this was more of practice to get used to filming and editing again. gonna try and do a similar shooting method over a 2 mile stretch of downhill, which should be cool. probably going to take 4 hours to film though

yup, i LOVE that one mott. the song is a great choice. 'always for you' by the album leaf. their video for the song is pretty cool too.

Nice. And that's good time for thirty seconds.

For the Monday clip;
I would pay so much for a bike that could change types like that.

Nice editing - makes you wonder why some major films aren't as seamless sometimes. Keep it going!! I bet there's a ton of riders herethat would love your help editing their clips - a business is born - charge 'em!!

[Waldo]

Very nice. Not much for action, but you do a good job of evoking a mood - the sunny afternoon cruise. Great editing and a nice eye for composition and flow. Looking forward to see more from you.

[Bryguy17]

haha. If i had the time to edit everyone else's stuff in addition to mine, i'd love to make some extra bike money, but when it comes to films, its hard to only be part of the creative process. I can't see what other people were seeing when they shot the video, which makes it hard to capture the feel they want without lots of unnecessary communication. Movie maker is plenty easy, it just takes some practice to make things look super cool.

Also, being OCD about making the transitions perfect helps a lot I really wish i had a copy of premiere so i could be that much more anal about my editing

If you want a second pair of camera hands for the filming, I might be available. I've been doing helmet cam videos and editing in Sony Vegas. Don't worry, I wouldn't be controlling or get mad.... I just love the creative process.

[Bryguy17]

thanks for the offer kanga, but i should be fine on cameramen. our last urban ride had 4 separate people with camcorders on it

At first I was sorta expecting something more to happen, then I realized it was perfect just as it is -- music, editing -- simple, sweet, cool. Kinda refreshing!

[Bryguy17]

I can't do anything cool on my BMX bike anyway, so it worked out real nice

[strobelite]

where do you live?
i need a reason to build my ng dirtbike back up
