Draven Sampler, Summer 2007...

[draven]

Its something a little different then the norm around here. Its nothing great but I had fun training until a rolled my ankle pretty bad so this is up to that point. Let me know what you think.

Pretty cool, nice asthetic appeal. Very chill atmospheric approach if you want to call it that. Did you just use color pass and contrast tweaks for all the colors?

[brandonn]

really liked the effects at the end
what did you edit with?
i like colorzzzzzzzzz

^_^

[Tatsumaru]

That definitely was kind of unusual, but I liked it a lot. Pretty original with the editting, not something I'd do myself - but still very cool :smile:

Nice tricks too man! Your roundoff flashkick and arabian were very floaty. Brandy_backflip was impressive as well, and nice axe2aerial! Solid flipping and aerial-ling all around, I didn't see too many kicks though! Hopefully we'll see some more in the future :)

[draven]

Yah iv been workin on kicks a little, I think im going to join a TKD class maybe to improve them. The effect is Inverted RGB and 3way Color Corrector in FCP. The end is just a time lapse.

Glad you guys liked it, hopefully this ankle heals well and I'll start training again, and hopefully film with something better than my labtop camera.

I loved that, very artistic video and very clean tricks. It reminded me of the scenes described by Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds.

[gabbe]

Different... I like it :smile:

Your tricks are good, keep on training!

It´s so booring when everybody does exactly the same type of samplersm but this was something way out of the ordinary.

I liked the colours in the intro, but then it got abit ugly. :eh:
Loved the music.

[rock_ten]

That's cool, most samplers bore me shitless - this one was great.

nice aerial-> full and roundoff-> arabian

[draven]

thanks guys i'm glad you all liked it.

I have a quick question for anyone willing to listen, once you roll your ankle a couple times does it weaken the ankle and then more prone to getting it injured?

If you stretch ligaments then yes it will be more prone to future injury. When ever i roll and ankle badly i wait a few days before i trick again and then i trick with an ankle support on till its feeling better.

Cool sampler dude, what editing program did you use?

[draven]

hmm my guess is that i stretched the ligaments...shit. I used Final Cut Pro

[WilliamT]

very enjoyable:smile::wink::wicked::cool::tongue:
:good:

[HenryT]

That was prettiful to watch.
