Anyone on here into video editing?
« on: February 29, 2012, 10:39:33 pm »
Looking to have some 'proper' videos made, our efforts with windows movie maker are 'ok' but for some interesting upcoming projects we are looking for something a bit better.

Any help or advice is much appreciated, or offers to help in exchange for some £££'s.

I know some guys who are, they make awesome videos. Shall I tell them to get in touch?

The most important thing is having good raw footage, what are you recording with?

Have a decent DSLR with decent HD video capability, but up until now have been using Iphone4s as our editing skills are what are lacking, not the picture quality!

This is the type of stuff we ate putting together at present, very basic but does the job for now:



I have no idea of costs to make a professional video, so feel free to pass on my details to your contacts Rich, much appreciated.

give freemotion a email on freemovingelements@gmail.com, ask for andrew to give you a call and matt recommended you. They do some good stuff and are keen to get a larger portfolio so you might be helping each other out (they are all very good)

Does this mean we'll get to see the video of you opening an ECU for unlocking and bench flashing you promised us ages ago??  :evilgrin:

That video is ok, does what it needs to without being too flashy which, imo, can detract from the subject of the video.

If you are after a better video creation software to do it yourself then give 'Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 11 Production Suite' a look, it costs about £80 but it'll do what you need and more.

Will happily provide this vido if you want one, any specific areas of the process you want us to highlight?

I'm just intrigued with the process of opening them up and unlocking to be honest.
