All - As I'm sure some of you have seen in a past thread or two a video was being done by a mate of mine who is trying to do some different things with regards to car film/video etc.

Please take the time to check it out and provide us with any feedback you might have :)

That car is mint :thumbsup:

well done mate.

good video. :cheers:

Yeah I know, first run through i didnt notice it as much but the more i watch it the more i notice it. :(

We'd already done two takes of the drive so it wasn't going to get done again.

Will - 5d MkII i believe.

Thanks for the comments so far. More feedback the better. More so surrounding camera technique, what does/doesn't look good and what people do/dont prefer etc.

The camera work was awesome i thought!

no offence - but the audio was abit out.. maybe unoticable to others but, to me when the music goes into transition to when you speak how the volume goes low/high. I think the volume of the backing track is a tad too loud when your not talking, but its spot on while you were..

my thought anyway!

Good production!

The way the music transition in and the volume went right up is a bit annoying.

I noticed the camera going slightly out of focus on your face a couple times.

Besides that it was quite a good watch.

Hey Ash I feel like it needs a shot from outside the car as it drives passed, so you can get a feel for its road presence etc... lots of detail shots but hard to get a feel of how it works as a whole

maybe some sounds of it hitting 8000rpm as you mention... just free rev it with the mic near the exhaust maybe

I know its as much about the owner as the car but feel you need a bit more car

my 2c

Beautiful car!

It is quite nice to put a face to a forum name every now and then :P and a car, that you so often quote about when your spanking teh newbs.

I can kinda see where your going with it, at least one little squirt would have given most viewers the smile they were after.

And although that R34 is an amazing looking car, it seemed odd to me to be sitting there rattling on about you HachR31 and everything about it, yet having the R34 sitting behind you and only showing pop shots of the R31 briefly. And seeing that you have put an incredible amount of effort into making it look better than it did rolling off the Nissan line, it needed the exposure it deserved!

Also, one thing that really catches my attention in a video, is short shots of the car from the exterior driving by. So you can hear it coming towards you and going away etc.

All constructive feedback from me. Hoping thats the kinda thing your after.

Other than that, Nice video!

Cool video Ash!

Aside from the obvious (needs moar car).. i thought it was perhaps a bit light on technical details. I suppose you're probably aiming it at people with not a great deal of car knowledge, but anyone watching a 10 minute video of an R31 probably knows a bit more than your average Joe!

Loved all the stuff about your passion for skylines etc though, that was tops :)

Hey Ash,

Very nice work on the vid.

Biggest thing i found is, the R34 seemed to be more of the center of attention then 31. Every time you and mick were being filmed the 34 was thier, you should realy have put the 32 thier as it is the center of attention.

Also some more wide shots of the car, just got up to the part when u drive the car and thier is probly only one or two decent wide shots of the whole car.

Defently need some action shots agan showing the whole car. im not shore if you take it to calder or track meets but if you do would be a good idea to throw these in as Well.

Hope this helps

Wow, the car is remarkably... sedate.....to look at anyway... I like your style :thumbsup:

yeah as Nick said more shots of the entire car and a driveby would be good, but eh..good werk.

EDIT

***Love the engine paint colour (I'm jely) but dude, do something about the overflow bottle, like wash it or bleach it even. Better yet spray it black..Oh yeah bodywork is AMAZING!!!***

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
