RMSolo Music Video Project #1 Completed!

[Shuriken]

...Well, at least I think it's completed. We'll see - this may just end up being a beta-version of a finalized product depending on the feedback I get from you guys and gals. All feedback, good and bad, is welcome - hell, WANTED. :D Just lemme know what you think! Make suggestions (whether you think I'll follow them or not - it'll at least give me something to think about), give ideas, whatnot! :)

Unfortunately the text in the beginning is a little harder to read in the youtube version than it is in the full-size version - for that I appologize in advance. :(

Hope you enjoy it! Thanks to everyone who contributed - and anyone else still out there with footage, I still want it for either a revamped version of this and/or the next video I put together. (I'm basicly out of good, useable footage - exterior-wise, at the very least!)

Is that who was driving when the engine grenaded? I thought it was you... :confused:

Thanks for the compliments, guys - I'm still looking for all of the feedback I can get, good and bad. :)

Very nice work! Good pacing, good variety of cars and venues, and balance between in-car/trackside footage. Especially thought the intro with the car being loaded was nice. Race day excitement! Ook! Ook!

Not unless Dokken ditched the music scene and is now picking up codrives at our local events! ;)

Excellant Devin! The video quality is very good. I wish I had High Speed Internet so I could've sent you my video's. Oh well, next movie I guess.

Nice work Devin!

[Warrtalon]

Woot! Nice final clip! :p

[Shuriken]

Woot! Nice final clip!

Hey, thanks! I didn't think the Accord on the dyno would win any votes, but sweet! :D

...Oh, you mean your Evo... yeah, I guess it was okay. :p (nah, it was quite possibly the best closing clip I've come across so far - as soon as Kubo got it to me, I HAD to use it - there was no choice. :D )

Still looking for suggestions, ideas, whatnot!

So far, lessons learned:
- Use 'Pod-safe' or other public-domain(?) music to begin with, next time, to avoid violating copyrights, lol... Hehheh... :o
- Include footage of courseworkers and drivers (Sorry, Kubo, the only reason why I didn't put your in-board footage in there is that it would've been the only one! Might've stuck out a little and not fit in too well - I WILL use it sometime!)

But I'm still looking for suggestions and ideas - Maybe even ideas for a song that is safe to use seriously for the next video!!

No worries. My "stone cold" face expressions followed with an outburst of adrenaline fueled joy at the end... awkward :p Next event, I'll have to remember to try to tape myself again. Now that I have a full face helmet, it could be pretty interesting to see just my eyes flying around (see if I can blink less than six times :D ).

Try looking up "stock music" on Google. You'll want to look for the words "royalty free." (Otherwise you have to pay by the use - a pain to keep track of.)

Any musicians looking for some exposure out there in RMSoloLand?
