  1. Check out this new trailer, filmed and edited by Pete66. It was shot at
    Whitford Forest during this year's Auckland Muni Weekend. There are some
    very cool glide-cam shots. Kiwi band Blindspott provide the
    soundtrack.

    Here's the link - its the 'First movie in my photo gallery'

  5. Nice camera work, nice riding and nice editing (not sure about the music
    but then I never am so don't listen to me) - should make a great DVD.

    I'd like to know more about his camera set-up.

    It looks like it's some kind of steadicam. They're quite expensive, but
    you can make yourself one using the instructions here. The guy who wrote
    the instructions seems to get very good results from his one. I'm sure
    you could knock one together pretty quickly.

    Really cool to see some proper riding in a video and filmed well too. I
    know it's easier to film trials / street, but it always seems a pity
    that even muni footage in videos is limited to big drops and jumps
    rather than nice flowing riding like that.

  11. I was really impressed with that trailer, all around. I'll reiterate
    that the filming was superb, the editing and choice of music was very
    tasteful and appropriate. The riding... I could hear my muni calling me
    from the basement..

  15. Awesome guys! Some really nice filming techniques in there, muni is
    tough to film but I think you've captured the steepness and technicality
    really well. I really need to come and ride with you guys...looks like
    great fun.

    There is a simpler style of a steady cam mount that would be useful for
    those low follow shots. It's not weighted and balanced like the fancy
    ones but it does offer a convenient hand hold that is not available on
    the smaller video cameras. There is a discussion of one in 'this
    therad' (http://tinyurl.com/8gy9g) and pictures in 'this gallery'
    (http://gallery.unicyclist.com/albus97).
