YOUR Real MX Vid's

I've heard conversation coming out of animal pens that is more intelligent than what is going on in here.

YOUR Real MX Vid's

Post by damon99 »

So the "Real MX Vid's" thread is great for sharing videos and all, but I can't help but notice that whenever I post a video that I have actually made (and ask for feedback on) I never get any feedback of any kind. It just gets kinda swallowed up in the sea of posts.

So I'm making this thread for people to showcase THEIR OWN real life motocross videos that they have made and spent time on, to get some actual feedback from the community. I feel like the MXS community is a great place to share these types of videos as many people here love the sport just as much as I do. So Please feel free to post your own work and give feedback to others as well!

(GoPro videos are welcome, but this is mainly for videos where people have spent time on editing and filming and making something entertaining)

Cool edit but the coloring and WB looks way off.

Have you tried just using a simple stabilizer and stabilizing a little bit in post?

A stabilizer. Something like this. I don't use one, but that's what im talking about. Stabilizing your footage. making shaky footage smooth. I stabilize most of my shots in the editing process if I have to

Oh got you. Well I'm owning a Glidecam but I don't like it to use because the fs 700 is pretty heavy with all the stuff on it.

I really hate to film handheld because you cant stabilize it perfectly in post and I don't can afford this to my clients tbh.
So the best way for me is to use my tripod. But yea using a slider and a Glidecam would be a good option for few shots.

Sliders look pretty good in MX vids!

Glidecam makes solid stabilisers for DSLR, other cheap manufacturers are junk. Get the HD4000 if you want a good one! (2000 is too light and small if you want to use an external monitor and good mic)

DJI Ronin or Ronin M is really sweet to film with, however I think it's a little small for the fs700 tho? I could be wrong as I never tried the fs700 on my Ronin M.

You could also save $400 and build a solid shoulder rig, it's not that stabilised but at least it's better than completely hand held.

Stabalizing in post-production is pretty useless. Sure you can use warp-stabalizer from After Effects for tiny shakes, but it fucks up pretty quick. It's good to use for stabilising moments like focussing and zooming on a tripod though.

Guys I'm happy and proud to show you the 2nd episode of my series...

For this one it took me over 2.000 km total driving, over 20 hours post production and idk how many hours of filming but I'm gonna work hard for my dreams like everybody of us have. I hope you like it and be sure to turn on the subtitles for english if you can't understand it. :)
