I like how you're capturing the spirit of the guys involved. I think keeping it personal is very important and you did that well. Cars are great but we can watch a car go around in circles for only a few seconds before it's just the same thing looping over and over.

posotive comments first. good choice of music. i hate techno but thats a good jam. The editing was good and i like the way it was put together. if i where you, i would peruse this "making film" hobby you have started.
sadly the video content is somewhat lacking. apart from the spin by Dr. Slow Hands at 2:12 the video is somewhat lacking in content. there is 0 thrill factor being that a 12 year old girls can do doughnuts in the snow. your on the right track, though. if you setup 50 cones into an auto-x in the snow and then tried to work you way through it could be entertaining. or strapping those 3 cameras to a 125cc shifter cart and running from the cops at 2am could also be entertaining.
frankly I could care less about watching a 10 year old SVX go around in circles in the snow. I am definitely entertained though watching the PEOPLE who want to make an SVX go around in circles in the snow in their quest to do so.

aside from the donuting, dont get the impression there is no driving skill.
i see the typical u-tube 'drift' videos and appearently anyone can do donuts on the axis all spinny and the like, but for some reason i cant? maybe there is a little bit more driving skill in a 10(actually 15) year old car with bald tires than something that can peel the tires on command.
and the original concept of shooting this was to experiment with chasing style driving scenes. too bad tim use the wide angle lens for the faraway shots. tim, why couldnt you have taken off the wide angle lens?
i tell you what give me a new car with fancy parts and i would challenge anyone to the track, even never having auto-x's before. largely a lot of the dirving is other people because i was running hte camera on the chase scenes
if you heard my quote in the fim, i said Because anyone whi f'n shoots a you tube video f'n dont know how to drive. not unless they go autocross but the dont do that in their every-day driving."
i am welcom to any criticism or suggestions. like i said this was my first attempt at fil
I liked it. But i think it is too long for a trailer. The music selection is good and creates anticipation within the viewer. However after about 2 min it starts feeling disconnected, almost like everything in the second half is an after thought. The character presentation is easy to recognize and each character is different, just as well as the cars.
Over all, i liked it, except the second half (although there are some comments made in it that would work in a shorter version.)
Now, so what influenced to try to make a trailer and/or a movie?

then prove me wrong

hu? on the axis all spinny? i dont know what that means. but i can do doughnuts in the snow in a golf cart so im not sure what your gloating about.

i like the overall feel, and the editing was good. like i said. but to really capture that chase feel you need to get the camera outside the car. for $100 you could probably make yourself a nice little rig for that hand cam you have.
