....Spinning top
 

So, I don’t quite know how we came to this, but my flatmates and I were bored one Tuesday night.... Not sure if vimeo takes 50p, but it was in 50p when I edited it.


Just after your thoughts, tips and hints or constructive criticism....

How about a link that works... Maybe

Terrific Typical Tuesday Nights on Vimeo

well done! - that skate park footage could have turned nasty if some real skateboarders had turned up!

I wish my Tuesday nights were that exciting... :( I envy you Ryan.

(Nice video by the way! My favorite shot is the one from under the glass.)

Thanks for the comments

@Paul - Yea not many skaters at 1am on a tuesday :) but if there were i probably wouldn't want to meet them....

@Aaron - We used some glad wrap (aka cling wrap?) over the lens hood.

It's cool. What font did you use for the text/credits? The DOF at the park was good, and at 1:20 was awesome.


Kinda cheesy using copywritten songs though, imho.

My heart skipped a beat when the spinning top flew over the flame :)

@ David - the font is called A Type 1, Atype 1 Font | dafont.com
The unfortunate thing is there are not Caps or symbols....

As for the music, sorry but it’s a small project I did in my spare time. There is no way I’m going to compose something myself or spend money on it. I know I probably should have, but hey it’s just a bit of fun.


@ Dennis - We were tempted to set it something on fire..... Probably just as well we didn't :


Thanks
Ryan
