A very rough around the edges first attempt at any action cam video, and first time editing a video on a computer ever. Started last night, four hours later......I got a few things down ok, really fucked up a couple audio transitions, missed a video transition or two, could choose better video transitions in general timed with the footage, barely delved into text and animation text effects, etc... etc...I know I have to reduce my head movement, except when I'm trying to stay alive, but also pan slower to show stuff going on the sidewalks or areas to the right or left of me, etc...Also by the time I got to Manhattan I had 30 fairly well-paced miles under me, with one giant lunch stop. I would ride faster overall, make the bike riding a bit more interesting. Keep in mind nobody honked at me, cursed at me, or ran to get out of my way at all, this is just a normal way of riding efficiently and quickly.
Second two thirds is the decent section. After the intro, skip a few minutes in for the better parts.
But from getting dropped off in Manhattan by the Staten Island Ferry, riding through the Financial District, through Chinatown, to the East Village and Tompkins Square Park to Washington Square Park. Had about an hour of footage cut it down to 12 minutes. Wait till the end cats that is when the crime starts
Also I had to find copywrite free music, and I just barely scratched that surface as much of it sucks, so only have 5 downloaded tracks so far. That is going to take some hours to build a good library. But whatever.
Future videos will include some narration at times during the ride, always having a food destination or two as well, turn them into guided adventures, but always, always pointing out the dystopian anarchy that is indeed, one of the greatest cities in the world.
DYSTOPIAN HELLHOLE OF NYC - a waste of 12 minutes of your time.
