Fest Series: Black Sage Highlights - Video
The first rendition of Black Sage by the Fest Series was hosted by Kyle Jameson and Carson Storch east of Bend, OR at the Oregon Dirt Park. All the boys travelled from the corners of the earth to enjoy a week and a half of shredding the Black Sage course, and all that Central Oregon has to offer. Kyle and Carson spent 6 months carving the line out of the earth, and it was enjoyed by all. Thanks to all the fans that came out to support the boys on the public day.

twitch was the first person to get them real nasty.
1) introduce the location theme, and riders,
2) introduce some drama, working to get the course ready, trials and tribulations of getting the event running etc, mucking about beforehand etc. Show riders guinea pigging the course / working out how to ride it.
3) show the rad action now it has some context.
4) close out of everyone finishing up.
Easy to do as 1,2 and 4 could be done with 2 minute snippets of interviews or graphics but would make the vid stand up on its own better than the smogasboard of big jump stuff from start to end.
The notes are great but no one reads those...
“The first rendition of Black Sage by the Fest Series was hosted by Kyle Jameson & Carson Storch east of Bend, OR at the Oregon Dirt Park. etc etc.”
Get that into scripted into the video somehow and that’s a good start.
Just some thoughts as it’s by far some the raddest riding we get to see but I think the showcasing of it could be better
A little more context would be nice and something...anything...just clip after clip is great but 7 minutes...yawn. I can only make it half way through these usually.
