  • Spoke to a few people about getting a film sorted for the Newcastle Scene and people seem up for it. I was thinking about maybe a 30 min film in sections like a skate vid or Mash / Macaframa if you want. Or could just do a big montage featuring a ton of riders but it is fairly easy to get lost in those.

    Anyway if people wanna have a bounce around with some ideas and make some suggestions post them on here.

    Chris Boakes has a Canon 7D which would be ideal for filming and Jonathon Taylor has a car. Spoke to both of them last night and they're bang up for it.

  • Few of us have been talking about getting stuff sorted like, would have to be something like this and we would have to ride HARD. Long time scale aswell..

  • id be up for being involved. just takes someone to organise it i guess and we can start filming something. only thought is that 30 mins might be a bit ambitious to start with. just see how far it goes maybe

  • Buchananmoind or Markaframa?

  • markaframa

  • I was thinking sMash NC. But yeah Markaframa is deffs a keeper haha.

    To be honest, I dont think 30 mins would be all that hard, dont rush it and film it over the space of a few months, ride super hard, super fast, bomb hills and race buses. Take time with the editing, get a few arty shots of the Tyne Bridge and were all go. Im gonna sort this out like, just need to hassle Chris to get off his arse with the 7D.

  • Yeah Fee that Andre guy is awesome.

    Been watching the Charlie Dont Surf BMX vid on vimeo recently, bang into stuff like this, DIY and gnarly as fuck. We could well do something like this.

  • dirty fish eye and rap whats needed

  • Fish and Black Metal.

  • ....let people pick their own music

  • not in communist china

  • Will it solely be just riders from Newcastle or could the teesside riders come up? Might not be many!

    I also have a 7D and quite a few lenses and would help out if needed?

  • Guess we could fit a little Smoggy section in haha. Yeah man, whatever, just as long as we get something done. It'll be proper fun to actually get some footage down.

  • i reckon a test shoot is in order

  • True dat. Next weekend?

  • I'm free after 2pm Saturday and free all day Sunday - Ryan who you may have met at COTT will prob come too if he's free.

  • Right, you need;

    53x13 gearing + brakeless + strapless bombing down Dean street at rush hour

    seriously though, you need to devise some routes like countryside, hills around Newcastle not neccacerly in the centre, get some businesses involved for sponsorship.
    Filming from original perspectives maybe 2 - 3 points of view (cameras on bikes, in cars and stills at the bottom (or top) of hills) or even strap a £300 go-pro to phil's spok :)

  • I could probably come up next weekend, depending on family plans.

  • It sounds like a good plan. I'm sure sponsorship wouldn't be too hard, just need a bit of persuading.

    I'm guessing you guys know some good routes and some scenic routes too - a good mix of urban a rural really works.

    I'm used to riding and filming, also taking pictures. I'll hang out of car windows or from the boot. Anything to get a good shot and none of this same old that gets pumped out.

    I think with a lot of effort, this could work and work well.

  • yeah would be awesome to get a go pro from somewhere. and good non moving points for filming too, tops of buildings down to streets and stuff

  • also, next sat is fine for me, feel like ive got something planned on sunday though...

  • Next Saturday it is, lets get this started. I've got a few ideas for some nice scenic routes aswell as some sick hills. If we have two 7D's for the project it should turn out sweet, multi angles for a few shots in each section would work so well.

    Is everyone free on Saturday?

  • this needs a proper meeting, where everyone can discuss their ideas and how they can contribute.......

    where?
    when?

  • ...saturday?

  • monument>?
