:shock: Yowzers at the length of the video, and all that slo motion.

That felt like watching the whole race instead of just highlights. 15 min is about the time that it took to run the actual race.

just some advice that I noticed. try to make sure you have your camera set to the shot you want to get before you actually record, this way there is no dead time of just the camera going all over the place to find the shot, have it ready to film.

Not really going to rag on the song much, but with the proper editing, I think it could have maybe been utilized a bit more.

but yea try to tone down with all the slo motion parts. show some action, key moments. etc make it interesting.

Keep working hard at it, you have potential just take more time to more details. :D

cheers for the feedback i was trying to get the feeling of watching the race again from like a speed tv's camera or something but it is a lil boring all slo mo i agree i was hoping you could do something with it and revamp it at all? or should i keep trying? i found it hard to keep clear if i sped it up more aswell, i tryed sony vegas 1st but ended up using videopad for this because it seemed simpler to navigate. if you would like the recording to tamper with let me know cheers.

well I am sure some others here use the same technique, but for me, I was always taught that if you are having issue with quality in full speed to do slo mo then speed it up to around the normal speed, this should allow for smooth feedback in the footage itself. here are 2 links that I find some what helpful. There are different ways in vegas to speed or slo down the footage. the one I use more often is a velocity envelope. you can sorta control more of the speed, and tone you want the footage so I hope this helps.

btw I got that sense based on your angles, which you did have the right angles just the slow motion did not help it. but keep working on it, you will get it . I know you will

cool glad the angles gave that feel i think it'd be cool after each event to have footage like that for each race almost like a full race recap for refrence of the events for people that don't have the demo to rewatch it. just wish i had the bike noise faded in but i'm taking it you can't get that effect when recording in slo mo? thnks for your help and support man i appreciate it heaps. i'l try do a similar vid but faster is it cool to post it to you before i upload here next time so you can give any advice? thanks again.

Well you got better with it. But again Too much slow motion, I was just saying that when you use slow motion, you can basically speed it up a bit, for the normal speed that you would see in game. Only use slow motion , to change the pace, or to show a key moment that is rather epic. I do see that you focused on key angles , which is a good thin. But IMO you should lower your Field Of View to maybe 30 or less. anything more tends to stretch a bit on the edges. But keep working on it. I can see you made some adjustments to the better side of things. so this means you are going in the right direction.. just keep practicing,

the biggest advice I can give is TAKE YOUR TIME. esp while editing. again clear out the unnecessary camera movements. :D

cheers, i'l definately take my time for the next one and use slo mo just for epic bits, does it make the vid clearer without camera movement too? thx for the field of view tip aswell mine was on 107 lol. glad it was a step in the right direction :D

As for the camera movement, I am talking in the part where there is no rider showing, and you seem to be moving your camera to catch the rider. The best thing to do , is just set up your camera, be a camera pan shot, or still camera shot, anything for that matter, just have it ready to go. this way it also cuts down on the length of the clip, but it looks way more professional IMO.

I should be studying, but I needed a break...Watch in HD, this video is just to test my HD rendering capabilities, but I figured I might as well share it....Short, sweet, and one random stock server clip! In the spirit of recent trends, it's all in slow motion! haha There is actually a reason for that, my game ran in slow motion because of the increase in graphics, which is a bummer, but hopefully soon I can figure that out
