LanceB Posted February 17, 2014 Share Good bits: Clever concept, with nice narrative details - somebody clearly story-boarded this properly, unlike the now familiar "let's just go ride and see what happens" fare. Riding is of a particularly high quality, which is crucial. Less stellar elements: Lighting is abysmal: you need to get there between 6 and 7am, or 18:30 to 19:20, those Forrest shadows and burnt highlights are substantial debits. The links could use some focus pulls for better transitions, and some 130mm-plus shots to compress the background on those long run-ins would be nice. Notable potential though, for future collaborations between whoever shot, produced this and the riders involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate it The video had to be shot 100% on a GoPro so unfortunately no focus pulls or 130mm-plus shots could be used. E-man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanceB Posted February 17, 2014 Share "Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate it The video had to be shot 100% on a GoPro so unfortunately no focus pulls or 130mm-plus shots could be used." You have all the correct ideas and the riders. Get some better DSLRs, set the alarm for 4am - and make an epic video. Looking forward to some more footage from you guys in future.
