First try at music video

OK my friend just got a nice digicam and he slapped together this video of some footage he had of my car. I thought for a first timer it was pretty good. You need divx, and it is almost 7 mb. If using Windows Media Player it will say "connecting" until fully downloaded.

That's pretty good. I liked the "it's stock" race.

I think this video is far better though:

To relate to you're movie, i thought it was a good beginning. What makes some videos cooler than others is IMO
1. different unique shots (ie. you're burnout!)
2. Good syncin' of music/video shots. Where the music hits, try to switch to a new screen shot. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, but when it works its excellent.
3. Funny (that "stock v6" is priceless)
4. the more steady the camera work better quality video too

Keep them coming! Liked it a lot. What proggie did you use to make it?

i hope you do'nt mind me posting twice

but i just love a quality video and i like making them myself

Cool Angles:
1. inside the cabin on that HUGE BURNOUT
2. a shot out the rear window speeding away after a burnout and therefore see the air current in the smoke.
3. zoomed in on the wheel up close as you peel away.
4. I believe its Jason's video that has the nice outside camera angle on the wheel and you can see the wheel angle turn wiht the steering.
5. Have you to see any "foot-action" from a maxima video... get a camera down there and show the feet (might be cool, might be cool, might not...

and now before i give out too many of my ideas, keep up the effort! The video community is jsut starting to boom as the technology is cheaper to buy for the "common" maxima enthusiest like myself (college kid)
