[TRA]

You dont have more material ?

Oh how much better it is to watch this then AndrewT`s fisheye thingy where you cant really see anything .

But you need to find the zoom button and zoom in abit more tho , just a little .

good stuff

[cck]

Yes andys vids are very good, but its so much more enjoyable to watch this little vid of giaco where you can actually see how high and steep things are

I think you are thinking of kevin. I've never filmed coustelliers.

[TRA]

oh , well it doesnt matter, my point still stands. first thing im going to do when i get to koxxdays is to hide andy`s fisheye/wideangle whatever :D haha

[Tanner]

It'd be great if I could watch the damn thing...

EDIT - Yay VLC player..

[Totaltrials]

oh , well it doesnt matter, my point still stands. first thing im going to do when i get to koxxdays is to hide andy`s fisheye/wideangle whatever :D haha

U won't get mine big man, muhhaaa, Ill film everyone with a wide angle then when you are riding I'll put on a super mega wide angle fish eye lense, hahahaha :love:

Downloading should be awsome, 160mb though 3mins :S hmm o well :)

I don't even have a real one :rofl:



Its like a piece of plastic you find at the bottom of a cereal box

[Yurich]

I agree, it's a bit more enjoyable to watch....not as "artsy", but the terrain looks much more impressive without the fish effect

[JK]

Thanks for the nice comments. I am in fact using a fish eye lens for every single shot in this video. You don't notice because I always shoot the subject as a 1/3 proportion of the frame.

This means that if Giaco is gapping to a rock, both Giaco and the rock will always be in the frame for the duration of the shot, with miniman panning. It's a technical style of filming rather than an artsy style. You'll notice the same filming style in the andrewtworldsjk video.

Stay tuned, part two of this video should be available couple weeks. I will also make a compressed version when everything is finished.

[Rob.K]

Awsome video, thanks Jon.

[Patrick]

jesus christ.
nice. his little tutorial on frame compression at 2:20 is pretty cool. dayam

[TRA]

JK .. couple of weeks , geez some people just do things very slow =P

Sorry man :(, too little time between work and play :p

[toyota200x]

Someone has a high quality camera. Very nice video.

[smudge]

I know shit about video/compression. Why does it look so...um...high quality? It's about the sharpest vid I've seen in a while. Is that due to a lack of compression? Whatever it is, do it again. The riding was ridiculous and I enjoyed the sharpness of the vid.

[Ruburn]

link got prob... can't seem to d/l

Maybe because it's 3 mins and 160 mb (6000kbps). Although 3000 would be abundantly enough.

Really awesome video!

[lmc]

That vid was immense and he was only messin around.. :nuts:

Nice 1 jk video looked sharp amazin quality,can't wait to see part 2 :drool:

[Cryo-Cube]

3 min 160 megs? whyzszs?
WMV is where its at

[cck]

tra is just being a hater now.

[shastamicnasty]

jesus christ.

what is he saying?

[raimund-aut]

I really liked quality and riding, but I am getting enough of that editing style.
I very often see it in UK streettrials vids with extreme moves, but for natural riding I just think it is not right.

I am talking about that stopping, black screen, continuing again and about that short previews, than stop, than again action. I really don't like that personally.

Besides that - awesome vid

[MIKE1968]

I told him to do 1100~ kbps, he did 6000 :o

[tomacropod]

that was awesome. Most amazing rider ever.

- Joel

[LanceT]

Those rocks are like a natural terrain set of demo obstacles. He has them dialed. I have seen those sections before, but it doesn't get old. Skill is always interesting.

It's like his bike has an internal gyroscope, amazing balance. But what happened to his crazy front fork? Looks like a standard Koxx fork now. Oh well, doesn't seem to effect him.

More, please.

[WhiteRavenKS]

crazy front forks weighed a little less than the koxx forxx and cost only 3 times as much. super cost effective.

[Ruburn]

wat codec to play the vid? any links for me to d/l the codec? thanks in advance...

[FERRAN]

Thanks a lot ..

[toni]

I hope uncompressed video becomes the latest craze! :eek:
