  1. Hey guys. Just wanted to get some feedback on a video that was made.
    Here's the link.

    It's a preliminary trailer for a Muni video that is scheduled for
    release in the Spring of 07. If anyone is in the New England area and
    would like to be in it, please let me know. You can contact me either
    on the board or at [email hidden]. We'd love to put as many
    people in it as possible, but unfortunately do not know any other Muni
    riders in the Mass, NH area, which is where we primarily ride. Anyhow,
    enjoy!

  2. Great to see another rider. Some words of advice: Don't film yourself
    doing flat ground with a realy shaky camera with incredibly hardcore
    music. They don't mix. Try to edit out all the flat and boring streches
    (which was, almost the whole movie.) Try to put all your very best
    stunts in. With a name like Muni, you should expect steep stuff and
    drops, but this was a prairie land. The Editing though was
    fanstastic!😉

    Keep up the work,

    Dan

    Muni doesn't have to be freeride to be muni. Lots of people enjoy XC
    muni. You don't need to be rolling downhill doing freeride muni and
    big stunts to make a muni movie. XC muni can be done into a movie.
    Make the movie about the journey, the views, getting out in nature,
    having fun and telling a story about the ride. Document a ride rather
    than joining together a bunch of tricks or moves like a street or
    trials video. Document a ride in chronological order like a story.

  4. The editing looked good, but like Danni said, the music didn't really go
    with the riding. Those trails lookeed pretty tame, but you could make a
    good XC movie if you told a story with it. If you want to come up to
    Maine to film me I would love to be in the movie. One more thing, the
    video quality was pretty bad, (pixly, grainy) so you might want change
    that and get a better editing program than Windows Movie Maker. Imovie
    works well if you have a mac.

  5. Hey all, thanks for the feedback. The video is the first thing we've
    put together and it was obviously done with windows movie maker. The
    concept of the whole movie is basically about where Muniing takes you,
    the people you meet, and to show how fun it can be just to ride XC.
    We'll put in some bigger drops and whatnot, but it's more primarily
    focused on just riding. Those clips were all shot in one day, in
    order, on one trail.
    The final product will be on different film and edited using much
    better equipment. But it sure was fun just doing that little bit.
    smcmorrow, I might just take you up on that offer. I'll get in touch
    with you soon and maybe we can get together sometime in the next few
    weeks and do some riding and get some footage. Anyhow, thanks again
    everyone for the feedback. It all helps. 🙂

    Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total
    obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and
    through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see
    its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will
    remain.

  8. I liked the flow of the riding in the movie and liked the music with it.
    I second John on that it doesn't have to be hardcare, we've all seen
    that.

  9. made me sick, very bounce cam. Sedy cam or trypod, google them to make
    one cheep. Not so much flat road riding try to keep the action going.
    Falls are a good way to make it funny.
    Good job. 😄

  10. Camera work was very shaky...And i got bored of the flat riding very
    quickly to tell the truth. Editing was good and it looks like you guys
    had a good time and thats what counts.
