Show Your Work 2004

[Bryan Mitchell]

[site down]

Shot at 2 angles, performed to 2 songs. Edited them together to a new 3rd song.

Let me know what you think. I often have doubts about my work.

[James Nyfeler]

Bryan, I don't consider myself a pro, rather an intense hobbiest, but I have my opinions.

I felt the clip needed better synchronization with the music, and the camera movement seemed to bother me for some reason. I think I would have preferred to have mostly fixed camera sequences rather than pan -- letting the fountains do the work. I also think that you could shoot the exact show from 2 different angles, showing a specific sequence back-to-back, but from different angles (I know that you used two cameras, but I didn't notice this technique). Also, I think you used slow-mo at least once (maybe more), but I think more slow-mo placed at the right time to the right music it could be quite effective. Depending on the music, you could do almost all slow mo if you wanted to.... just play around with it.

I liked the venue (makes me want to get back to Vegas!). Overall, it was pleasing to watch. Good work.

[Bryan Mitchell]

Actually, I only had 1 camera. I had to wait another 30 minutes for the next show from the next angle to a new song. Which Is why to put them together, it had to be a new song. No slo-mo, but I have thought about adding it to make it timed to the music better. There is some slight movement on some of the shots I'm not sure about either, but the two major pans in the movie I thought played well.

Thanks for your reponse. I'm going to reedit it today.

well done trailer,

I just hope its not a Liberal propaganda movie, Its kinda hard to tell where you are going with it.

The clip lags a bit.

Right now it's only in Xvid format but by the end of the week we will have it in Quicktime.

Do you mean DivX?

I may be wrong but I think that Xvid is another type of encoder.

[Spencer Houck]

XviD is a pretty popular DivX related codec. Cleverly...DivX backwards.

I'm not really into skating/snowboarding video stuffs but it was pretty cool to watch. The title graphics seem a little hard to read though, possibly a larger font with a stroke around it to make the white stand out against all that snow.

[Chris Shepard]

yep xvid is just another dvix format.

[John Gaspain]

looks good!

A larger font would be good, and maybe turn up the saturation in some shots. Good riders thats for sure. Do you have a Wide angle or fisheye lens?

[Chris Shepard]

Semi-fisheye (0.33x) on one camera (GL-1) and a Wide 0.44 on a canon optura 200mc.

I was recently given photos and some "poor" video footage by the manager of Cincere, an upcoming artist ( more info at http://www.simplycincere.com ). Here is the link to the video that I created from the materials given to me: www.sevillemedia.com/cincere/
Any advice or opinion will be deeply appreciated.

Here's a tow-in surfing sequence I edited for the 2004 Movie Night of Extreme Sports in Germany. It features Garrett McNamara surfing one of the world's largest and best know waves.

Let me know what y'all think.

I'm still in L.A. and would love to work on some projects out here, too. (hint, hint)

Go here: http://advaloreminternational.com (I put the video on my website's frontpage.)

More surfing videos are on the way!

Pretty sweet Victor, that barrel about three-quaters of the way through is SICK!!!. It's really hard to get a feel of how awesome Jaws is on video ay, it's something you just have to exerience.
