I know I have posted these before but the host before was crap, speed up the footage and music and all of the timing got screwed up. Well here are 2 vids of some local trails we have been riding, nothing crazy just a fun time. The quality is crap but I can't figure out how to make it better.

This are my 1st two shots at making videos so constructive criticism would be awesome.

Over the summer I will be filming at all of the races and events I attend and will be putting together a small DVD of east caost racing footage. It should be pretty cool.

Thanks for looking, Dan

1st race I will be filming at is Diablo Dominion race this weekend. I'll also be racing but I'll do my best to get a bunch of footage. Everyone make sure you go fast and stuff. ;)

ok, i am no great vidiographer but,........

when you are filming your friends just ride down
and shoot.

some clips had riders line up waiting to go down,
faking roost grabbing handfuls of brake, and some
clips goes long so you see them pull off the trail.

tighten up some clips where you don't see that.

also practice "catching" the clips. not setting up shoots.
b/c when you are at a race its hard to identify the riders
you want and get the shoots as they whiz by in practice
not stopping.

I am shooting more and more and am learning as i go.

these are thing i have found out, you might already know.

Yeah,

I will work on it. The roost is all real, these trails are very dry and dusty, its not just skidding. I'll film at the race this weekend and throw up a little vid.

nice work.

What's the song from the first one?

In the second one around 1:24 you can here the rider hit the brakes and then a couple seconds later the song goes "What?!" syncing them up might be cool and funny.
