So I put together a teaser for my company...just thought I'd share with you guys. C&C is always welcomed!

nice video

 

damn thats some cinematic sh*t ! lol if I seen that on TV I'd definitely want to go see it hope your company liked it as much as I did. very impressive (i give it 2 thumbs up)

 

you know you can edit out your *shakes* in final cut studio or in imovie, or in pretty much any new video editing software?

 

yeah i know that, but if you've ever used those programs it tares the footage to fill in the spots where the program is altering the shake. also I was going for a guerilla style shot, and therefore there's shake.

 

I understand it's a midnight run, but meh I wanna see the cars too, not just hear em.

 

well as long as you were aiming for that; I like it, nice work.

 

ok...well it was just a trailer/teaser

 

why go guerilla type filming if you are filming exotic cars? i feel it should be clean and classy like the cars themselves.
also do you plan on getting daylight footage of the cars or is it strictly a night run thing. If it is just a night thing, try to shoot in more spots with street or building lights.
i like the balance between engine sounds and music. i hate having too much music or music that drowns out engine noise.
other than that good work on the video.

 

thanks...for one, I went with the guerilla style because this film was meant to portray more action than elegance. We're promoting the power of these cars, not solely their splendor. If I wanted to do an elegant film that resembles a rap video I would invest in dollies, jib arms, and steadycams. And the complete film will not be only night scenes. Granted, Top Gear doesnt do anything guerilla style, but I dont have their budget nor their style of filming.

I appreciate the comments and feedback, but I dont think some of you realize that this is the epitome of low budget filming. Just because the owners drive Lambo's doesnt mean they fund my work. I was basically given a low budget camera (which explains the grainy footage), no external lighting, no other equipment, and used what I had to create what I could. I like what I was able to come up with taking into consideration the limited equipment that was available.

But again, thank you for all the comments and feedback...they are taken into consideration.

 

good deal man. keep up the good work!!

 

i like it. how low budget of a camera did you use?

did you just stick your head out of a sunroof? looks scary... haha

 

Yeah...sunroof, rear window, side window...you name it I did it. We're using a Sony XR200V...word of advice? DONT BUY IT...the functions are so limited, it states it shoots in HD, but the quality of the HD is so inferior. Also...for $1k you can get a much better cam, like an HV30/40

 

haha... i have a HFS100 but would love to get a HPX170

 

spooling the murc like whoa!!

 

for the trailor, maybe put some music in the beginning..... when it was dead silent i thought my sound was messed up so I turned it all the way up and then boom, it wasnt fun.

 

I designed the trailer to be like that, sorry you didnt enjoy it...but there was a reason it was quiet in the beginning.

 

pretty sick video..the dark grey one sounds like a growling monster hunting some innocent dear down and is that a cop at the end?

 

Yes. One of the guys got pulled over by that CHP. But only checked to see if there were any drinking involved.
