Music in 4wd videos

[Aaron]

Why? why? WHY?

Why? why? WHY?

why not ? do you want to hear chugging, revving etc ?

[Aaron]

Yes exactly. For someone who wants to learn about 4wd'ing, hearing someones engine revs would tell me a lot. I just get frustrated.

I wont even start on peoples musical tastes... Thats just self centered

The boys and I will try and sing a few songs for you in tomorrow's vid:D:D Do you have any requests?

[Aaron]

No musical requests. I do enjoy your endless requests to "Hold it still" though!

It's like subliminal messaging. I know he's not listening but the message might get through eventually!

is there anything that doesn't annoy you:wasntme:

i cant stand video's without music they become tedious without a track behind them

[Aaron]

No, not really.

[Panda]

I like some of the music on the videos - if I don't I just turn the sound down. Ben did a brilliant video of our Yalwal trip, the music was excellent:D

I like a background track, You can still here the revs and action then.

I fully agree with you there. I have now in fact stopped watching them due to it.

the same bloody noise over and over on it.

That's the key - backing music! Not just music.

I am generally against this kind of thing, from an artistic point of view. I feel the author is taking too much credit for someone else's work by simply cutting their footage into a music video - no matter how good the original music video is.

Also, speeding up the footage is fine for the Keystone Cops or Benny Hill, but not for offroad action. I want to see it as it happened, although I do appreciate a good slow motion grab of something tricky...

[dullbird]

each to there own is what i say

if you dont like it dont watch it or like someone suggested mute the volume........

you can how ever have the noise along with music.....sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't

personally i have a lot of music in my videos over everything......because when i take video it is not in a controlled enviroment, so you get people talking in the background (swearing, saying things that you just dont want to be in a video)......you cant control those sorts of things so you edit them out so rather than having half my footage with no sound you put music in if you have some good scenes with good noise in them you incorprate them in.......if it works...

its good to have noise in i think to show for instance how steep a hill is as quite often you lose prospective on camera, and its hard to make things that are difficult look difficult...

but personally i dont think watching home video's to learn how to 4wding is a good idea anyway it would be easy to pick up bad habbits and unsafe practises, better going off with a good group and learning on the job.:)

just my opinion but i will probably get flammed for it:firedevil:


EDIT: oh just watched the video above and personally i think that was very very well done!!!.........not often you get video's of 4wding that are entertaining as that, and one with a story behind it too i think the person that made that was very creative

Can you speak up! I have been driving Land Rovers, starting in the 1960's and my hearing is not what it used to be! :(:(:(

You can always turn off the stereo system. It is only a little switch, then you can have all the engine noise you want.

I have been frantically catching up with Technology and uploading all my old Videos from Offroader.com.au form the last 6-7 years to YouTube and posting them on Offroader TV (http://www.offroader.tv)

non have backing music, as i didn't want to infringe copyright etc when i first made them years ago.

Its amazing how much digital clutter you gather in a few years, just imported 17,000 photos from the whole of Offroader.com.au... thats over the last 6-7 years. and I have about 100+ videos, lost a few over the many server changes / site re writes etc (which we are going through yet again.)

I should import all the raw video on to my mac and re do some of the videos, i have some good footage....
