jdm538 · 07-23-2008, 03:11 PM

like everyone has said cool video i felt like i was watching a preview at the theaters and that is one sick car/driver.

jordanpelly · 07-23-2008, 03:59 PM

nice angles, those were some very clean drift and very nice camera work. Keep up the awesome work!

Truck... What do you need a truck for, all you need is a skateboard...

Video is cool, intro is a bit long, but follows with some good footage.

S14Josh · 07-23-2008, 08:24 PM

The only reason i wanted the truck was to keep pace with the car as it's initiating and passing through the ring. In order to do that on a board I'd have to be going well over 30 to keep up and make it to the ring safely.

The thing with balcony is the starting lane to the ring is such a long stretch its pretty hard to pull it off with a board without getting trashed, plus it's not exactly the smoothest surface in the world, so maintaining speed isn't really achievable. The only reason I know this, is because I tried it and got caught up on a rock and almost ate shit with my camera in my hands...which would have sucked.

But I'm actually a huge fan of the T2 films board shots. Those shots are amazing.

But we've actually got some ideas floating around as far as what were going to be building for camera rigs. My neighbor has a fabrication shop, and also works for a production rental warehouse, so were going to be building set-ups for a dedicated chase truck and other rigs like jib arms and all that.

The next thing i'm going to be setting up is a cheap hand held type jib-arm like they used in fully flared

You can see it on the back of the case.

But thanks for all the feedback, I really appreciate it.

what r the specs on your on car and front end bumper

ericcastro · 07-23-2008, 08:57 PM

Ive been doing that move for awhile. Its hard to keep secrets at the track though. Once you do something, you see everyone else doing it after that.

I have a bogen tripod for my still cam. with everything extended, I can get about 10' out of it. then i use my remote shutter release. I think this trick is better for slow motion shots though.
You cant get motion blur with the still shots like this, so it doesnt translate the "feel".

The only way to do anything that wont be copied is to do something someone wont. So you have to start risking your equiptment.

S14Josh · 07-23-2008, 09:03 PM

Those are some awesome shots dude!

I totally agree with your last statement though, which is probably one of the scariest things about trying to pull off shots like these haha.

The guy that owns the green S14 is Forrest Green, not the thread starter.

Please use common sense and reading comprehension on these forums.

Now go to www.google.com and look him up.

Thanks.

Ninjabread · 07-24-2008, 10:15 AM

You mean Forrest Wang? lol

SoSideways · 07-24-2008, 10:21 AM

Godamnit, the coffee isn't kicking in still? Fuck... second cup here I come!!

hahahahah Forrest Green... that sounds like a fucking paint name lol

DudeYourSoOOJDM · 07-24-2008, 10:37 AM

Why I didn't call in and drive with you guys now makes me really pissed off. Next time I aint skimping out on that shit. I love the video, it's like sk8 and bmx camerawork and works awesome for drifting.

ericcastro · 07-24-2008, 12:59 PM

^sshhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(me and CHOMPZ and SQUIDD (vrt) are working on a new drift video style, sssshhhhhhhhhhhh)

T2 was actually going to do some filming for Forrest/Geoff, but since his car was illegal for FD never happened.

ANd yea the boarding thing is hard at some tracks and some corners. We did a little bit of the trailing in a car thing as well at the same event the video above was filmed. He hasnt finished editing some of his stuff though, got a lot of cool footage.

I am glad to see so much new stuff in filming drifting though, shit is so boring to watch usually...

S14Josh · 07-24-2008, 04:41 PM

That would have been dope, toss the link up here whenever it gets done, I'd really like to see it.

What would be awesome is some huge collaboration between all of us video guys. I'm sure we all could pull off some shit that would be out of this world.

FIlthy 24O · 07-24-2008, 05:05 PM

forrest is a animal

tracks13 · 07-24-2008, 05:16 PM

You couldn't tell what the video was about after 3 pages of people commenting on it?

ericcastro · 07-25-2008, 11:03 AM

You can come out to one of our 626 events and colaborate with squid and chompz or do your own thing?
Im taking a break for the next few month to turbo the car and get a daily. So i will be there shooting stills and instructing/staffing.
I can also peddle a bike if you wanna ride on the pegs and shoot?

suaknee · 07-25-2008, 11:15 AM

moar now! haha

heychris · 07-25-2008, 11:27 AM
