Title: Finally finished the video
Post by: blown motor on October 09, 2017, 01:56:05 PM
In August, my daughter, her boyfriend and I spent an afternoon shooting video on a cool road a little northwest of Toronto. We finally got the time to get together and edit it down into something playable. This is our first attempt at doing a video. We learned a lot from the experience and had fun doing it. Enjoy.

Great video!

It takes a lot of time to record and edit this kind of video....when you don't master edit video software like me  :steamingmad:

Enjoyed ever minute of it, you did a great job. I was a bit bummed when it ended, could have gone on longer for me. It'll be something to revisit when the snow arrives.  :twothumbsup:

When it first started I was like... this video could use some good ride-a-long music... and then it came on.

Well done, I really like the use of multiple camera mounting points, in and out shots, and how well the video went with the music at the end.

Well done!

Very cool.

I like the dodge windshield decal you have, where did you get it?

Thanks for the compliments gang.

We spent about 2 1/2 hours shooting on a two mile stretch of road. That included an ice cream break. I'm not sure how long I spent viewing what we shot and deciding what I was going to use but it took a few evenings. Then we spent about 4 hours, I think, putting it all together. We wanted the music to come on at the transition from the first segment to the second segment and we nailed it on the first try. That was beginners luck. It took much longer to get the ending right. The whole thing, including credits, ended up about a half a minute shorter than I had first planned, with no credits, but we wanted it to fit the music. It was our first attempt at this and we had to learn the editing program. We shot it with a GoPro and used GoPro Studio to put it together. A couple of points that I don't know if anyone noticed. First, on the first segment we applied a 70s filter. It give it a bit of an old school look but it's subtle. Did anyone pick up on that? Second, we thought the applause at the end of the song worked well for the credits. After we show the music credit Jackson Browne says "Thank You". Did anybody catch that one?

I have to give a lot of credit to my daughter and her boyfriend. They had a lot of input and did most of the computer work. I could not have done this myself. We are very pleased with our first attempt but we learned a lot also. Our heads are swimming with ideas for more. Can't wait for next summer.

That decal was on the car when I bought it five years ago. I took it off last year but had a graphics shop duplicate it in case I ever want to get one made again. I was reluctant to use that picture because the car is not exactly like that any more. The other difference is that the hood scoop inserts are now red. Maybe that doesn't matter.

Well done.
First thing to pop in my mind when I hear that song. Forest Gump.
