Dammit red bull player--Rupert Walker is a genius and Matty Miles is one of my favorite riders to watch but I think his Silvia films videos had better quality in 2011, as I might as well be watching a black and red donkey running down a beach to hub noises. Still an unbelievable video, just had to let that bit out one of these days.
I've done some shots where the rider carries a small audio recorder and then sync it up in editing. You get great sound but need to work hard to limit wind noise. I don't think that's what they've done here though as the sound is traveling with the rider. Mic'ing the rider works great to pair long/wide shots with high sound detail.
Does anyone else feel there was almost too much tires on dirt sound? Like don't get me wrong I love the sound of it, but in this video, at points, it just sounds like noise and almost seemed out of place as if it was inserted during editing...
Mad, mad, mad respect!!! One of the best edits I've seen in ages. Incredible steez, gorgeous shots and dailed production. Got me stoked to ride from the first second onward!
Great work all around gents!
looks like a few different Kamloops spots. Definitely lots of Rio and the big jumps at the end are the bike ranch. There's a few other shots (like the loam) I can't place exactly.
