Quote from jaykay3000 :

Though I thought the reflections looked a bit sheeny shiney. Like someone had dropped a bottle of oil all over the cars then put them in direct sunlight.

yup, meanwhile I agree with that ... it probably was not the smartest idea to use the reflection pack in combination with those filters

thank you all for the feedback!

hopefully the promo helped/helps to put the spotlight on the GT Series

nice video!
I wouldn't have put the same black "edge" (no idea what the correct word for that layer is ) for the whole video, but used different ones or only used it for certain scenes.. but oh well, that's the only tiny thing that came to my mind

other than that I enjoyed the video - content, music, colours, contrast .. well done!

hey guys!

this is my promo video for the GT Series that my teammate Scott Mckenzie is currently hosting (feel free to read more about it on the lfs forum or visit the website). the footage is almost completely taken from the first event and a test race that was held earlier this summer.

(and for those of you who were totally away from LFS during the summer, make sure you did not miss my 2nd latest movie, Moments Like This!:shy

Quote from BigTime :

Have you yet learned the power of DownloadHelper add-on for Firefox?

I'm using opera ... but yea, sure I know ways to rip youtube videos, but when there's a way to get the original file I prefer getting that one - thanks for the dl link

amazing .. how everybody just writes the same again and again

cool stuff, I enjoyed it... short and nice, packed with action.. would love to see more of those videos nowadays

EDIT: add a download link or I'll take back what I said! (I like to keep certain videos on my HDD)

good stuff! packed with action but WAY too short - well, that's what you always think when a good movie is suddenly over

also glad to see you could use the replays I sent you

as expected my mpr folder didn't offer anything too breathtaking, but I uploaded three replays that might be worth a look .. you decide

(I added a txt-file, telling you where to skip)

I can recommend you the replays of Torsdagsrace, a league with weekly held races. there's always plenty of cars on a small piece of tarmac, various combos and sure some action - but you'd have to check those yourself, I'm too busy to watch them and pick certain scenes at the moment

I'll have a look at my replays folder later on as well, but I'm afraid it's similarly empty as yours

Quote from Jouman :

I've lost to him countless times too

Here is a proof that the mysterious XRR is out there. Managed to stay ahead of him for a short time by dump luck http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGXvq3Q_WdM 2.10-2.14

youtube recognized him too - and dedicated the thumbnail to him

great stuff as always, nothing to add

the intro was a little long for my taste, but other than that it's a great movie - especially for being your first one

good action and camerawork later on, keep it coming!

great vid, especially loved how the clips went with the music .. good camera work and restrained effects there, also, imo

but....I couldn't find anything negative, sorry

a ticket for q-base 2009.. but can't be bothered to take or find a pic

The Prophet vs. Brennan & Heart - The Payback

packed with action, I love it!

Quote from [SWE]RE :

for some reason no skins were loaded resulting in all those cars being entirely white, which isn't fun to use in a vid.

I always had that with the TR replays

on topic: I zipped some of my replays that could qualify for your project. random cars and tracks with a more or less crowded grid, depending on the combo. looking forward to a quality movie!
(some people can't download from zippyshare, if you're one of those, let me know)

Quote from Loko VEN :

Veri nice! I like the vid and the song! Who is the autor of the song?

Reamonn

I thought everybody knows that song anyway, was a bit afraid that people don't want to listen to it anymore

Quote from BastianB :

K.I.Z - Was kostet der Fisch?

K.I.Z.
so I'm not the only one who listens to it from time to time!? :P

np: K.I.Z. - Los Geht's

awsome stuff
still a lot of luck there but that's what you need for such brilliant moves

Quote from el pibe :

yeah, those commercials are hilarious... XD

did u watch the '' Dont giving a F!@# '' one ?

yup seen that one too
or what about alone in the universe? such a genius guy... I couldn't keep such a straight face when singing about things like that

Quote from Chrisuu01 :

Is it jnust me or is the music not quite right it doenst ame me merge within the video

sorry but I didn't get it

you want some of this, bitch? I'm 20 but who cares?

well.. jon lajoie is great, first video I saw was "show me your genitals" a while back.. followed by the commercials (breathing, being gay, pedophile beards and rapist glasses). ah and since I'm a fan of techno/dance music, I also like "sunday afternoon"...

but my favorite is still "everyday normal guy 2".. now go check those out.

OK OK! you guys will get an eye-friendlier version then

I rendered the video again, didn't touch the saturation this time, only set a little more contrast and adjusted the brightness. so the look is quite close to the original lfs graphics (apart from the reflections). another youtube version will not be added.

I'll add screenshots for comparison to the first post, then you can decide what looks better and download the version you like best. uploading takes some more time, going to add the download link as soon as possible. (EDIT: done)

thanks for the comments, guys! feels like it was worth all the work now

good video, both the edititing and the drifting (as far as I can judge that ) look really professional. I've never been a fan of drift videos in general but this one will definitely follow the few drift videos I like and go straight into my "LFS videos"-folder!
