View Full Version : Should I do a clip of the Week?

The thing I don't like about making videos is that by the time I am done collecting all the footage the footage I got a month and a half previously feels as if it's already outdated.

Also, I don't necessarily have much time to film for videos to get done in under 3 weeks. I'm not sure I can even get one per week.

So do you guys think I should just make short 30 second clips every week or so, with one to four tricks each time? Or should I make actual videos?

I have two clips right now waiting to be released, and I always get impatient and feel like releasing them early.

Thoughts?

I like clip of the week as long as you don't stop making vids altogether.
If you do that, you die.

I'm considering starting something similar, only not a weekly thing. Mainly since my uni is screwed up and I can't do much impressive stuff in a timely manner...

But, yeah. I dig the clip of the week thing.

I think you should try and do both maybe? Just like 1 or 2 small clip videos a month and then at the end of every month or two release a vid.

edit: almost 1,000 posts :D

Well, although it's pretty close, it seems as though the mini-clips idea seems favored by more.

What I'm thinking is that I'll release clips more or less as soon as I take them, and then end up using the mini clips to make full length videos (like make compilations or something).


So for those of you who prefer long videos, just don't watch my mini-clips and the majority of that footage will be released in longer videos.

Sound good?


P.S. Lutz :p

And Spudman, this could definitely be arranged. PM me if you are interested in purchasing any of my videos ;)

I prefer Full Lenght vid.

And while we're in clips of the week...I'm not sure I'll start doing them again.

So after school I got:

Monday: Circus
Tuesday: Nothing
Wednesday: Circus
Thursday: Circus
Friday: Circus
Saturday: Chilling & Homeworks
Sunday: Unicycling & Homeworks

That gives me 1 or 1 ¼ day to film and put a vid togheter...wich isn't a lot.

Sounds fine, so not a CotW, just whenever.
So when are you going to show us the Fifth back/fakieflip and all the other tricks you have been hiding?

Fifth fakieflips has not yet been landed, but could probably be managed sometime soon. Fifthbackflips not coming for awhile.

When I have the time, I'll edit the two clips that I have and start a mini-clip thread. I'm at school now, so that's not an option.

if you do a clip of the week you ruin your future videos.
if you do clips of the week... ppl get bored of it and see your riding too much
if you do full vids they stick around for longer and get linked to

I'm aware of this.

I meant that I'm not landing a fifthbackflip in awhile.
