Short bit of video from Leo and Edd

Eddbmxdude · 2006-11-17, 08:51 PM

Hey guys,

Me and Leo were going to enter a video into the unicyclist.com video competition. We started filming and got some footage, then I uPD'd onto the camera equipment and buggered the camera. I had finnished the last section of the movie but none of the rest.

I decided to enter it anyway.

Here it is.

We were trying to make something completly different from anything out there already. Tell us what you think, I hope you enjoy it.

Rock on!
Edd

I think that it would have been a good intro for a vid, maybe if it was shorter, but as a whole video I thought it was a waste of time. It's not really your fault, since your camera broke, but other than that it was good. Very artistic idea.

It's beautiful! Nice change of timing from the typical chopped-up approach. Your film really does bring out the idea that, when unicycling, we're just living life. Very insightful. Thanks!

Beautiful. It really is a refreshing change from the close angled, tightly cut fast stunt videos with loud brash rocky soundtracks (not that there's anything wrong with them).

Shame your camera got broken and you didn't get to finish it.

Having said that, you mentioned that this was going to be the "last section". What was the beginning and middle of the film planned to be like?

Also, what was the soundtrack?

Nice one Edd, Something different there that works well. Shame it's not the full finished vid!

You have inspired me to make another video sometime, perhaps a xc muni journey....

Eddbmxdude · 2006-11-20, 03:43 PM

Thanks for all the positive comments guys!

I was looking to make something totally different. If my camera hadnt broke, there was loads of things I would have changed on this.

I was trying to make something that conveyed the happiness that unicycling brings, and that even though sometimes we fall, we get right back up, brush ourselves off, and try again.

When I showed this to my girlfriend she started crying!

Opps! She said that it was like a memorial video!

Keep the comments comming!

Rock on!
Edd
