SGPhoto Video Series - THE BURZ - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

As many of you know, I enjoy photography quite a bit. What you may not know is that I have been doing various forms of video editing for the last 16 years or so. That said, it's been a goal of mine for a long time to actually produce and film my own content.

This is a project I started last year and have only recently been able to finally "finish". The idea came about as I was looking at the 86Drive website and reading some of the featured car pages. I wanted to take that idea and apply it to video. A bit more simplified of course.

If you would, please take a look:

If you would like to know more about what I've done with my car, please check out my "build" page: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=55680

I want to make more of these so I'd like to use this time to ask if any of you would like to do be involved? Interviews take about 20-30 minutes and other filming/audio capture can be done the same day (meet, drive, trackday, etc). If you are interested please let me know.

Exhaust sounds good, did I detect a UEL rumble?

It is, FT86 SF catted UEL. Paired with the Perrin CBE, sounds so good

fantastic stuff! ... I've aspired to making something similar too, but never got around to it. anyone else who gets a video made by you will be a lucky guy/gal.

Cool vid, I wouldn't mind having one made since I'm sure it'll be better than the vid I made. lol.

For the handheld shots (like the exhaust and side marker), might want to use a steady-cam rig of some sort to get a smoother shot. Or if you have a computer that's capable (cuz I know mine isn't, lmao), video stabilization in post processing.

I shot (mostly) everything at 1080p but worked at 720p. I could've done tripod but opted for the "hand held" look to see how I liked it. I actually did shoot the side markers and exhaust on a tripod at first, late last year. I was doing some test shots and playing around with Cinestyle. They were a little too blown out so I decided not to use those ones.

Unfortunately I didn't take into consideration that I may have wanted to stabilize in post so my framing on all those shots were too close. Stabilizing in post would bring everything a bit closer and I wasn't comfortable with that.

That said, I did stabilize almost everything I shot with the GoPro since that was done at 4k (except for the mounted shots while driving). My computer is still a beast for being 7 years old

But yea... learning experience lol.

I have nothing for video except a tripod. le sigh

My laptop can't even post process video stabilization. So I can't do anything handheld, or have super smooth videos.

Any other videos you've made?

Clipdat · 05-01-2016, 12:57 AM

Yeah don't be shy @Pwolf, post up some of those AMVs!
