Rides of March DVD's

Ash Nelson · **Posted:** Sat May 12, 2007 7:10 pm

Those who were at today's RallyX at the BMW farm may know that I handed out a few DVD's of the Rides of March RallyX. I wanted to make more, but ran out of blank DVD's (and time). If anyone wants a copy please pm me or drop me an e-mail at ashleighnelson@earthlink.net with your address and I will shoot one out to you.

I will be putting together a DVD of the "Momma won't let anyone dirty get through RallyX", and if anyone wants to collaborate (meaning send me their video footage and/or pics) I willl be happy to incorporate that too. Thanks to David Urriola and Phillip Rodriguez for their help today getting extra video footage!

I popped in the DVD Ash gave me and was expecting to see a few runs of the General. I was amazed as was a full production of the event. Menus were added to select different drivers and classes as well as a results page! WOW! Great job Ash!

I can't imagine the time it took to put this together, not to mention standing in the middle of a dust cloud all day to get the footage.

Thanks again Ash, I was very impressed!

PS. Ash must not like my driving. There was like
15 seconds of me and the rest was my other
three amigos. I did suck that day so maybe
that was it. :oops:

Aw shucks, it was nuthin'! I'm glad ya liked it

I was very excited about this project as it is really my first foray into video production and my very first attempt at authoring a DVD. I am planning more cool stuff for the next one

As for your clips, I thought it would be best to edit out the ones where people were laughing, so I only had a few clips I could use... :wink:

Naaaah, I just need more videographers! I tried to dedicate myself to capturing a drivers' whole run, and with two cars on course that means I skip about every other car. With more volunteers to capture video, (people who are not working a station, of course) I could really get some footage! I have 4 video cameras and 3 still picture cameras, so all I really need are volunteers...

Thanks for the great DVD, Ash. We finally got the time to watch it tonight and you did a fantastic job.

The menu designs and the organization of the footage is great. I'm sure it took a huge amount of time and a lot of talent to put this together.

Thank you.

Charlie

Holy Moly - that was fun! You did such a superb job of organizing and putting that together - you truly deserved to be "heel of the month" (although truthfully the word "heel" just leaves a bad taste in my mouth - go pack!)

Seriously, thanks so much for putting that together - I know how much time & effort went into making that (not to mention the $$ of the dvds!) , and it's greatly appreciated.

I guess I'm happy you don't want to drive in Rally so you can keep taking cool videos of the rest of us! :car:

Thanks again - many kudos -

Mo

Ya'll are makin' me blush!

Thanks, I am so glad you like it! There's more in the works, I'm working on the "Momma" RallyX vids right now...

Great job on the DVD Ash!! I got to use it to show my parents why my car looked like a dump truck dumped on it!!!!

Great job with the production. Very professional.

Thanks!

I really appreciate the DVD. Now my family knows what rallycross is! I just loved the titles and stills at the end. You have talent and I know it took you a long time to put together such a nice production.

Bernie and I want to be called, "Old Dog Racing" for obvious reasons! :lol:

Could you add the theme to "Dog the Bounty Hunter" to our intro? :wink:

I think you should charge us for these. I'd be willing to pay.

I will try to "hunt down" that theme song and incorporate it in your future videos

And I'll change your title to 'Old Dog Racing' instead of 'Team Dog'. For that matter, if anyone would like their "team" titles to be something different from what I put on the DVD, please let me know. This effort is all about you guys, so I don't want to call ya what ya don't want to be called, if you know what I mean :lol:

Several people have asked to pay for these DVD's, but I would rather not take money. If anyone would like to donate writeable DVD+R discs and or cases, I will gladly accept those for use in future production. I don't want it to look like I am trying to make money off this, I just enjoy it.

Cool! Ozzie Osbourne sings it. Don't do it if it is a lot of trouble.
I'll give some thought to theme songs for other cars. The General should be easy. :lol:

I'll make a donation.

No trouble at all...I have already downloaded that one and some others that I might use.

Thanks for the suggestions! Keep 'em coming if you think of something else!
