Zenister 0 #26 February 3, 2004 QuoteQuotesome of the earlier tracking dives were a bit abrupt. With the editing or with the footage? actually i meant the editing...its kinda hard to follow the early cuts of tracking dives...some nice shots but i really love to see/feel a sense of movement in tracking footage....____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

CanuckInUSA 0 #27 February 3, 2004 This video is very much still in it's beta phase and is not finished. PhreeZone has already convinced me to re-evaluate the opening sequence with the way it's mixed with the music and there'll be some minor editing going on in another section. So while I may or may not re-work the opening tracking sequences you speak of, you're input is appreciated. Too bad you weren't there this year.

CanuckInUSA 0 #37 February 3, 2004 QuoteGood job dude, you are amazing I never did get to do that jump with you (otherwise I'm sure you would have been in the video). But I guess I'm at fault because didn't you ask me one morning, but I was still in the process of recovering from the night before? Hmmm ... maybe I could use a clip from last year?

CanuckInUSA 0 #41 February 3, 2004 QuoteNice job Steve! Can't wait to see the finished product. Thanks ... it'll be a while before "Bellas II" is finished as I don't have anywhere near the amount of good raw footage to make an entire 2nd movie. So I guess I'll just need to start jumping more and posting less? Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dude you've convinced me. I have decided to rework the initial tracking sequences. In fact, some of it will remain as it, but I will try to add a little more continuity to the dives and try not cutaway as often. I don't know when this work will be done (likely next week as I'm going to be a busy camper for the next few days). But changes are imminent.

Zenister 0 #46 February 5, 2004 cool...dont think im bitching, ive watched it at least 10 times already...damn i miss Eloy and you capture it well...particularly a certain sway that always makes my knees weak... i just love tracking!! cant wait for the 'rerelease...'____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

sunnydee123 0 #47 February 5, 2004 Nice footage Steve.....so THAT was the cutaway ....damn that shit twisted up fast! Hmmm...how can I add this to all my other Bella footage? I'll make it to one of your videos some day Dreams become reality, one choice at a time... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanuckInUSA 0 #48 February 5, 2004 QuoteHmmm...how can I add this to all my other Bella footage? I'll make it to one of your videos some day First off, there's no point in worrying about getting a copy right now as changes are imminent (sometime next week maybe, maybe the following week as all of a sudden life seems to be getting busy). But a replacement tape could be sent to you. But I might have to ask for some shipping expenses as this whole Bellas thing-a-ma-bob has costs me much-o-dineros. Also, while it's not easy to see it, you actually are in it. You guys (you, Greg, Ian and Ian's SO) are doing an exit right after the initial tracking sequences and I can briefly see you in your jump suit. But you've got to jump with me (like WrongWay did) and the jump has to go well if you expect me to make you a star.

VanillaSkyGirl 6 #50 February 15, 2004 OK, I found this thread. Steve, I finally received the video, and I LOVE IT sooo much! Seriously, I am totally blown away. The fliers on this video are awesome, and you have done an amazing job on video. It even makes me BADLY YEARN to go headdown someday, which speaks volumes. I really admire your work...VERY nice job!
