 Nice, that kid has style and he's fast Big Grin

A couple things for you, Jacob Gibbins: Your filming is good and all, but your post i ruining quite a lot for you. Firstly: Use interpolated fields, not blended, makes the video A LOT nicer to look at. Secondly: Get your intro widescreen!! it might be a small thing, but it makes a huge difference.
Hope i haven't been too hard on you... just giving you some constructive criticism.

 IsakL - that resolution looks like a widescreen to me, 16:9 to be precise.
As for video quality it's shot with nikon d90 slr, and it has this funny effect (caused by rolling shutter) as you pan across, don't think you can fix it with the way you encode the video as it simply records each frame across at a slightly different time (nevertheless I'm quite impressed how little it is visible in this edit)

 the fact the footage is interlaced and only 24 FPS means it uses slow shutter speeds a lot, and its also all auto and out of my control... working round the fact its not a film camera has its downsides... but you can get nice stuff out of it.
