assignment 4: best park montage

[krux4892]

no arguments, people really wanted to do this so thats just what it is.

-must be filmed all at the same park
-must be at least 1 minute long and no longer than 3 minutes
-mix of fisheye and long lens will make it more interesting
-don't use a song thats been used a million times
-slow-mos and fades/transitions are completely allowed
-if i think of more credentials later, i will post them

entries are due in the entry thread no later than 2 weeks from today which makes the due date July 29th

keep discussion/feedback in this thread please and i might make the due date shorter if it seems like a good idea

[nightjohn4]

yes thank you dude
i wanted this

[SkaterForLife117]

Sick, thanks a lot for doing this.

Is it ok if there's one clip I didn't film (but it's me skating)? I can let you know which clip it is when I post it so you don't have to critique it. I'm asking because there's a line I'm doing today that I've been wanting to film for a while.

i have no parks.. but im leaving for vacation saturday and im not coming back till way after this assignment is over so i guess it worked out well for me.. this way i wont miss artsy montagee baby

[HappyCaucasianFilmer]

alright cool i am down

[Twinskate]

I'm working on a plaza montage right now but that won't be done for a bit (it's footage the city wants to see) so can I re-edit my swift current road trip montage (it was posted about a week and a half ago) ?

[UnknownSkater]

Dude, three minutes is to short, can you please bump it up to four. PLEASE. 5 if I suck your dick!

[krux4892]

wtf are you serious? short and sweet is the way to go mah brotha

I have a lot of clips. I don't want to have to make two separate montages. I might have to either way. The editing makes it seem way shorter than it is. There three people in the montage.

I'm just tired of really short montages. :/ I'm not trying to be picky but...

[ispitfire]

5 mins max would be best. at least 4

[Randomzero]

mine is short and sweet
atleast i think
editing is more of my strong point over filming IMO

[POPWAR SKATER]

i rather watch something shorter. park can get boring quickly and if the montage is boring it obviously wouldnt be getting my vote.

uh well you have a red gem so you dont really count for squat on this messageboard.

i give you all an inch you take a mile

Having like 4 gems only means that you spend all day on SBC. On this site to get respect, all you have to do is post in offtopic about stupid shit to get "respect". Don't go thinking you are better than everyone else because of a few green jems.

You gave like a centimeter. My montage is exactly 4 min. I can't make it any shorter. It looks like you spent five minutes thinking of the rules.

thanks, and i dont see why theres a time limit, the point of the assignment is to do want you want, to do what you think will help you win, and to do what you think will be good, so if you think a longer montage will be better, then i dont see why not.

[krux4892]

alright fine have it 4 mintues, i dont care. but i know that most likely its going to get boring...

also! i was completely joking about the rep thing, i didnt mean to start a controversy

[ISKATEONTHEBEACH27]

dude i had everything ready for rolling LL and then you change it to park montage

[POPWAR SKATER]

then they wont get your vote

[Twinskate]

Wow this turned out to be too complicated for what it should be... maybe sticking with the poll and doing rolling LL would have been a great idea...

If you're persistent on a time limit make it more than 2 minutes, less than 4.

[Randomzero]

the rules right now aer fine i think
i dont know what the big problem is

i could see having to make it longer a problem, butshort is easy
i say just end all rule discussion, and it is what it is. get over it

thank you

[Dillbert]

im not entering but i say u just make the time limit >4 minutes or whatever cuz more than two what if u dont have enough footage? whatever guys, but if a montage is 30 seconds its not gunna win so its their loss.

[Randomzero]

well m almost done with mine and its a minute and a half
soo i dunno

[krux4892]

thats a perfect length in my opinion. i havent even started filming mine, i might want to. i just dont get out as much as i would like to...

[Dillbert]

lol i love how those gays are giving feedback in the entries section

[Randomzero]

yeah its pissing me off.
the other went real well

[jakeblueisballin]

Unknown has a montage thats 10 minutes but it doesn't even seem that long....Time limits = FAIL

[krux4892]

orly

[saurus]

Anything that's not mindblowingly good over two minutes gets boring.

[krux4892]

my point exactly.

[UnknownSkater]

Anything that's not mindblowingly good over two minutes gets boring.

This actually isn't that boring. I made everything roll along nicely. It wasn't just all skateboarding and no in betweens, THAT gets boring. Showing some personality and being creative can make it much more watchable. The skating isn't half bad either. Either way it's going up, along with our full length video when it's complete.

[Randomzero]

entered mine finally
make sure to keep the discussion down in there guys

[ispitfire]

does the skating count, or is this strictly filming and editing.

[krux4892]

make it out to be whatevs you want

[Randomzero]

the filming and editing should only count
this isnt rate the skating section
i mean having good skating would help
but shouldnt be a big factor

[ispitfire]

thats what i was thinking. but i have a little of everything i would say.

[nightjohn4]

hmm two with the same song
does mdfilms's entry count because his is less than 1 minute

[mudkid]

anyone like my montage that i entered

[SkaterForLife117]

anyone like my montage that i entered

No, you used the same song as me shit dick.



Actually, yours was pretty rad. What was it filmed with? Colors and such looked nice. Some of the LL was kinda awkward looking or just didn't really fit.

[Randomzero]

To Anyone Currently Viewing Entries:
The vimeo videos, may look like they have been deleted or wont work if you click play(due to the gray scren on em), but if you click play, they do work.

maybe this is only hajppening for me, but just sending a warning
im sure the vimeo staff will resolve it asap

[nightjohn4]

good i thought my computer was fucked
its happening to me too

[mudkid]

No, you used the same song as me shit dick.

[krux4892]

[Twinskate]

havent even started filming for this shit, HA
Haha that's okay, I only used a bunch of older footage from this spring.

[Randomzero]

Due date shoulda been earlier i think
pretty much everyone has entered except krux
is that why you set it 2 weeks later?

[Taaffe]

i'm uploading mine right nao.

[aman_aman123]

seel5 what song was that?

[nightjohn4]

make the deadline shorter

[krux4892]

haha yeah the long deadline was sorta so i could enter. if i dont get it filmed and uploaded by sunday morning i will make a poll right then and there.

[Randomzero]

hahah 2 days before deadline

[SkaterForLife117]

make the deadline shorter

While on the topic of a park montage, I saw you at WB today filming...probably for a park montage haha. I got some sick footage there today. We went there like 2 or 3 times (between going to spots).

[nightjohn4]
