DC Area Video Challenge

[Tristan]

The folks at BTCo.net seem to think that they're better at transit videos than us here in DC.  Let's prove 'em wrong.  For the month of October, let's get our cameras ready and take video of DC's transit systems = WMATA, DASH, Ride On, everybody.  Yes, even PG.

Once all the entries are in, we'll do a poll just like BTCo (but our vids will be better).

Wow, that's bad when your first reply comes from a B-more mug himself.  I'm down. 

Wish I'd have gotten rolling yesterday, but I can always roll down there next Saturd, uh... before the end of October to get some clips to include.

Damn that whip.

I'll try it out as I already have my song idea.....But I might need some help with putting the video together.

[Tristan]

We'll get through it as a DC team.  I need to get some footage myself - you know my idea already, but I only have 3 clips so far...maybe 4...

I may be around in D.C. come next week, as things are looking sweeter than honey at the moment. Besides, I already got some nice D.C. stuff on my Youtube (same screename as mine here, should anyone wish to go there and get them).

[Tristan]

If there are more people here who are interested but not sure of their video skills, let me know.  I'll be going through this for the first time as well so I can post whatever tutorials and advice I find, if it'll encourage anyone.  Landoverdivision, I'm looking at you.

Hmm, I could use some better skills. My camera really sucks though, but I get whatever I can with the money I have.

[Tristan]

I didn't mean your skills are bad, I meant you like to do video.  Hook it up bro!

Oh see I knew that I was just testing you.

[Tristan]

Less testing and more filming!

[LandoverDivision]

Ok, let's show BTco.net what the DC Area is made of. My camera is ready to go. Use some of my YouTube videos too Tristan.

[btconet]

I'm about 80% done the production work on my vid.  I had made it about 75% through a prior project when I started to lose the interest in the theme, but somehow managed to find a new song that seemed to be a better fit.

Maybe another day or two and it should be online.

[LandoverDivision]

Dangit, I need a lot of time to get clips for my video. I need to do  alot of DC Area traveling to get my video ready.

[btconet]

Well, ya still got 9 more days to capture stuff!  Not sure about your theme or what have you, but the hot spots are always good to get lots of clips quick fast and in a hurry.

Now that I up and changed my own theme, I can really see where some extra clips at certain spots along the L2/4 would be ideal for it.  Hmmmm,......www.amtrak.com.......

[Tristan]

Since only two entries are anywhere near completion, I'm thinking of extending the deadline to around mid-November.  Any opposition?
