Re: Video: Ultimate Track Car Challenge at VIR
Sorry, but that was way too jumpy for me. My brain was hurting 2:00 into it, with all the abrupt scene changes, in-and-out of focus, and back-and-forth moves. The ten or so zooms on "BAM! FORTUNE AUTO!" were getting old too. And at the end, no in-car vid? That would've (potentially) helped a lot. I don't mean to be a dick with this, so think of it as constructive criticism

I suppose I can agree with it for that crowd. Just doesn't sit well with me personally.

Good time to trip thats for sure. LOL. All joking aside, I did like the video myself. I think it was (like ya'll said) it was more along the lines of an advertisement which served its purpose. It wasnt a "hey, look what I passed at VIR, look at me, I raced with Ferrari's and beat a 500hp car" video.

Re: Video: Ultimate Track Car Challenge at VIR
It took about 1.5-2 weeks of editing.
I tried to get in-car video, but for some reason the camcorder kept shutting off. I did some research and found that camcorders with internal hard drives or built in memory will shut off when the camcorder experiences jarring movements. So I bought a smaller camcorder with a SD card and will test that out this weekend! Thanks for the constructive criticism though
Yeah, the main purpose of the video was to highlight Fortune Auto...so I think it was good for that aspect lol
Thanks for riding your bike at that exact moment, because you made that shot awesome!!! :D

I thought the video was good, you have a lot of good ideas. I think you could use a good tripod, get a fluid motion style head, that would help with your pans. Also, i think you could do without the angles, it's usually a big argument in the photog world, but i still side with less angles.
