Camera shot Ideas

I've got over 10 gigs of car vids on my comp, so I've seen some sweet camera angles. Here are a few:

1. If you camera is small enough, set it in the middle of a quiet street and approach the camera in your car eventually driving over it(not running over it, obviously). It's a bit risky but the shot is priceless.

2. fly bys, with a friend taping through their sunroof

3. holding the camera out the window at tire levels looks sweet when you turn

Hope that helps.

What else is there to do in the middle of the desert?

Oh damn man! Got some pretty sick ideas there. You're right.... the drive-over-the-camera shot would be insane!! I'm too much of a wuss to do it though. Not confident enough in my driving skills. Maybe when I become more experienced, though.

One's in .WMV (windows media player) and the other is in realplayer, it gave me the best size file that I could upload, with the least loss of quality.

These will probably be up until this post hits page 10.

PRI 63 thank you very much for hosting these...the links do work now so enjoy and tell me what you think...further shooting might be delayed an extra week due to my purchasing a y pipe which will hopefully happen today...the video is 1:50 of what will be 3:36 (length of the song) and pretty much every shot after what you see on the clip will be driving...i wanted to get the still shots and overall view of car out of the way at the beginning while the music is slower...once again enjoy and tell me what you think. thanks for any input.

Thanks, the site needs lots of work but I have very little time to work on it (as well as the shop).

I responded to your e-mail, but in case you didn't recieve it: There must have been a problem in the file transfer because my server won't let me open the files. I would love to put them on my site so if you want to, try and send them to me again.
