Idaho BS thread in the PNW

ok guys real quick, i need your opinion. So i know most of yall are of course big into photography and editing pictures and comparing them and all that. So i was wondering if you could critique a test video i made.

If you remember monte my go pro shit out right before the switchbacks and i just gave up. i did this test when we had that recent snow fall. I wanted to make sure the go pro worked and try to remember how to use the editing software i havent opened since last year, so i can be more prepared for ski season.

My only goal was to take some normally boring videos, and by editing them make it somewhat interesting. My inspiration for this came soley from a demo video they use in a gopro display at work. While they have cool clips of athletes doing cool shit they have a couple shorts just of a dad throwing a baby in the air and the baby playing, and another short of a small kid being thrown and playing in a pool.

I thought its incredible those guys that make the go pro vids can make the most mundane activity look awesome. So that is just what im shooting for. Take some lame clips of sliding in the snow, and mash them together to make them tolerable. I didnt really plan it out...just stuck the camera places and went outside and derped around and wanted to see what i could make out of the shitty clips i had. So critique away

Your camber cams are fucked. Is shit bent or is your alignment wonky? I thought the editing was cool, which reminds me that I have a gopro that I haven't used in like two years lol.

 

what? scared my story gonna be better? haha

Id LOOOVEEE the SRC8s..seriously..

so...screw you haha may the best man win!

 

What is wrong with his cams other than they are almost maxed out (I think anyway)?

 

well thanks for the compliment haha.


as for the alignment...i want to guess neither? How exactly can you tell that they are that bad?

they are basically maxed out, you are correct there. i too are confused

 

Just don't look even, and maxed. On a "stock" truck the cams in that position would make the tires like this / \. But, I have also seen x members so wadded up the cams had to be maxed out to get the LCA's wide enough to drive it straight lol.

 

oh i know what yall are doing now haha

good luck guys! way too lazy to write a paper

 

oh oh oh down at the bottom. gotcha, took a second.


and they dont look entirely even...i got an alignment before moab...but its possible over the summer the thrashing around has knocked it out of being even?

i doesent drive funky at all. never even noticed it. ill have a look later and see how bad it is

 

Are you referring to the adj cams at 1:06 in the video or the movement while hes driving?

 

You need some exposure and color adjustment.

Look into Adobe premier and Adobe after effects. Will give you the pro look and waaaayyy better editing options too.

But not bad. I'd also mute all camera sound. Nothing will ever sound good from a gopro.

 

I probably have color adjustment effects in the program, just need to find them and figure out how to apply them. I like the pro look

i deleted the track for the camera sound, except that i did intentionally leave the sound from those 3 clips in on purpose, that was the intent of the shots, the camera getting smacked by the wiper blades multiple times. figured the sound would help show that haha. missed that mark.

thanks man!

 

Yea the free gopro editing thing has some basic stuff. But if you want legit. Gonna have to get adobe. Not super expensive for students.

Plus be fun.

 

oh I have an actual editing program, i didnt even know the camera came with software. Its not top of the line, but its enough any ameture can do about anything they need with it

 

do you have cineform? it's the free app gopro has for their vids.
I used it on my spartan race vid
