Phatmike Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Just finished my new video, it's a bit different to my usual vids.Was just me, one afternoon, on my own, with a tripod, at the doctor's surgery in Malvern Link, threw it together this evening.4:26 long 44.2mbLink: http://tv.isg.si/site/?q=filebrowser/Fatmike Then Fatmike5.mpgI'd like to know what you all think.

Mark W Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Three things:1. f**king awesome vid. Really, really liked that. Just sorta captured the whole feel of it pretty well, and it worked really well without the music. If it had been any longer it might've pushed it a bit, but it was spot-on lengthwise (not the first time you've heard that " ). The over-all concept was awesome though, and the riding was really great too. Seems like you're developing a really nice style now. Oh, and another thing, really liked the clear sorta sound. Just did it for me for some reason.2. You're a whore though, 'cos I was planning a similar-ish idea (with the camerasweep) for a vid I was hoping to make soon. Fag:p3. It would've been better if you'd give me the material for one Coust pad. Fact.But yeah, awesome vid. Best one I've seen in ages, pretty sorta inspirational...

flipkickbs Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 (edited) That was the fastest made, yet best video i've ever seen posted on trials forum. Riding was good, but not amazing, Editing was good, but not amazing, spot was good, but not amazing. But everything went together so perfectly it was just like TRIALS.Really loved that vid.Ian Edited January 9, 2006 by flipkickbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 I didn't like it.I just found it a bit boring and repatative. However the riding was top notch as usual, but the filming / editing didn't do it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smo™ Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 I didn't like it.I just found it a bit boring and repatative. However the riding was top notch as usual, but the filming / editing didn't do it for me. Ditto, the perpetual piercing noise of the brake really got on my nerves which was a shame, because I liked the editing and the riding was good.

Dr Greenthumb Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Awesome vid mike i really enjoyed that.Everything just seemed to work well, i.e the riding and complete silence did it for me.Loved the camera sweeps as wellgood job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poopipe Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 I really liked that - it looked like you were going round in circles all the time. I also like the squeakey noises and lack of silly music.I'm definitely going to steal those ideas if I ever get my camera out the only thing missing was a dog chasing a sheepum - 4.5 out of 5 pies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Really cool idea and nice riding. Good work. However I would say you want some music - You ain't Felix, you can't ride with no music I'm gonna watch it again. Oh and those hops backwards onto front wheel are really hard, I've been trying them for ages but I can't seem to get them. I'll have to watch you closely and nail them.

011001000110010101110010 Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 As tomm said, you cant really pull off the no music style of video. But other than that it was good, riding was cool possibly a little stop and go at times. I prefer a bit more flow, but each to his own Did you not think you sounded weird when you listened to yourself? I know I would Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to watch you closely and nail them.lol, what are you talking about he was so silent with those taps Those back to front things I learnt the other day, it was more to avoid a car than anything really, I learnt them by rolling to back wheel on the edge of a curb then just throw your weigh over the bars and your bike backwards, kind of slams hard on your wrists sometime though.The video was pretty neat, liked the moves, reminds me of me riding a bit, alone,wet, not great place to ride just thinking up tricks and lines to do on the little I have. But seriously you look like you've lost a hell of alot of weight? I can't see the whole Fatmike thing sticking for you much longer no-one will know who to look for at rides.Good video Olly.

Heatsink Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Nice vid!! I will post some more thoughts later tonight.Great to see from your riding that the CNCed Alu backings and your Coust pads work great together Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMunn Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Yo mike, I thought the vid was good, but it lacked something but i'm not sure what. The style of the vid was good and the angles and editing was also good. But something wasn't there to make it 'great' and before you say, its not the lack of music either!

zoo p Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 i know you like the sound of your coust pads but you could have put some music on for us, makes a change from your usual vids, nice onead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr ailsbury Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 that was brilliant, well done I usually don't like vids without music but that really went nice... that brake sounds a reet beast aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technical Tom Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Wicked vid Mike Editing was good and pulled off some crazy moves. Ride with you soon Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 I like the whole panning idea, that was really good. Riding was sweet too, but maybe a bit too long, and the whole camera on wall and only being able to see a few inches of your tyre did wear a bit thin, but other than that, not bad fatty.

Phatmike Posted January 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Glad most of you liked it, I wasn't really sure what to make of it myself, just thought I'd do something a bit different to my usual style of videos... I'm glad it's got mixed opinions too.what brake pads are u running? because i want some! lolAs Mr Heatsink said above, 50mm Coust Pads, in Heatsink CNC backings, which I'm exclusively selling together, give me a shout if you want some.
