Well after getting it all sorted out, Spring Break on the new Husky was great! Content warning - there are orange bikes in the following video - View discretion advised View: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epOkf0ehg8E
Cool. Great shots. Love it down there. I like the rear view video. I'll have to give that a try. The music grew on me, kinda like it. Who's the composer? Dave
I just stuck my go pro hero II on a near by cactus(?) or on a mound on the ground, then did the ride towards/away. The music is the main theme from the movie True Romance by Hans Zimmer - an oldie but a goodie. There are two versions on iTunes, the one in the vid is the live version. It also goes by the title "you're so cool" by Zimmer, that's the movie version
I meant the helmet mounted cam, looking behind. That seemed to work well. Thanks for the music notes... True Romance 1993 w/ Christian Slater. Ha. Never saw that one. Have to check it out. Thanks.
Oh, for the reverse vid I just turned the camera backwards and tried to guess alittle bit on where the other kids were. I guess my helmet mount is a little low cause its always in the frame. I would spot them in my mirror every once in a while but I'd try not to move my head too much. True Romance, I'm pretty sure it was a Tarantino movie, also had B Pitt, C Atkins, and a few other big names in it
Vid looks good. I think you nailed it. Always hard to guess the right angle. I have the same problem with my GoPro when skiing. Yep, Tony Scott directed (Top Gun), a Tarantino script w/ plenty of stars. Heck, it's a 20 yr old movie now! I'll have to NetFlix it.
Cool Vid. Nice production. True Romance is one of my all time favorites. Love the Dennis Hopper "Sicilians" scene.
Here is some additional bonus footage courtesy of Jim - I did a little "Flintstone's" looping at the beginning (unintentionally). no music just engines View: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzEoprWlbWo
