Hey, it's been a while since I last started a thread in this section, but anyways some of you know that I got a pretty sweet deal on an HD video camera from vode, and others of you know that we just got back from a 3,5 week road trip across California. So I filmed some footage and now that I got back I got my brothers old Macbook to which I instantly downloaded Premiere Pro CS4 and started unloading the footage from our trip. It might be slightly overedited but I got a little carried away I guess

I'm already making another one since there was enough footage, and it will probably end up just as openly gay.

Part II can be found here

I just looked at that video.
you gotta tell people if there aren't gonna be any stunts or pranks.
So ridiculously sentimental, just a normal vacation video.
wtf.

What are you talking about, you just rephrased what I said in my last sentence?
28 July 2009, 20:41 UTC#4
lol.
28 July 2009, 20:43 UTC#5
That was so sentimental and redundant. There wasn't a single stunt or prank in it. And it looks like it was all filmed in some picturesque dreamscape like California or something.
And I'd say you got a little carried away with the editing too, man!
28 July 2009, 20:45 UTC#6
I'll come to Finland and make a video like this.
If that were to happen, I could stay with one of you guys, right?
28 July 2009, 20:49 UTC#7
Haha definitely not, I don't even like you even though you think I do.
28 July 2009, 20:54 UTC#9
I like how the video was longer then 2 seconds so I could watch it on youtube
28 July 2009, 20:54 UTC#10
Yeah, fuck you shitstain

Grow the fuck up kid

You know what Ben, Its over between us. You go have a nice life, and I will do the same for myself.
I think we've made some really bad decisions in getting married and having a kid so early on in the marraige. Well, now I know what I've to do. Be a strong father and support the family. But there is no more us. Its one of the hardest decisions I've to make, but I cant put up with you sleeping with him anymore. You have hurt me and it will take time to heal. I am very happy that you are who you are today, make no mistake about that. I just wont be around anymore for you, not anytime soon. I really want to be that man for you, but obviously I am not. Not now, not anytime soon. Just let me be, let me heal myself. I do think that when a man leaves, he leaves for good. I am that kind of man and here I am saying it for the last time, I will not be comng back.
I love you, and hope that you will be happy. I have said to you that I'll be there for you, when you need me just call. I stand by what I said and I will be. Just not in that way anymore. Dont count on me coming back. Its goodbye baby.
As a father I will ask how is he doing and whether you need help. That is all there is to it. No more grovelling, no more pleading, no more begging. No more changing my priorities for you, no more clinging on to the past. I'm gonna take care of myself and I'm gonna run for the hills whenever I hear you being needy cause thats what got me into trouble in the first place. I wish you all the best.

Yeah whatever, have fun with anal herpes
28 July 2009, 21:09 UTC#16
But yeah nice little video man. I know it was made for you guys to keep for memories sake and that came off really well. Was basically a video - photo album but was a nice little watch.
Nice edits too, maybe tone them down but you've still got it.
28 July 2009, 21:13 UTC#17
Haha yeah, the edit was supposed to be over the top with all the titles and all the 'look at us friends having a laugh together' clips that were in there. Think of it like this, Lonely Planet documentary meets a generic rock band tour music video.
I haven't gone all gay yet lol
28 July 2009, 21:20 UTC#18
I found this video to be like adems vid blog on his youtube. even tho there isnt anything really significant that any viewer that wasnt there would get. its still very enjoyable
28 July 2009, 21:35 UTC#19
Himo fiilis, kyl meitis digaa.
28 July 2009, 23:27 UTC#20
I really liked the titles and editing of the parts that I watched.
29 July 2009, 01:04 UTC#21
Fucking amazing. I am very stoned but I fucking loved that. Loved the grade you did. Honestly cant tell if some of the clips are stock footage or if they are all shot by you. Hearing you guys speak did ruin all my illusions I had about you guys. Because you seem to have better grammar, punctuation and even sentence structure than the majority of people on this forum especially including myself, and I had imagined you as big beautiful finnish well spoken english people. But no your big beautiful foreign people. Is that just because it's your native tongue or can your furfill my fantasies of you guys having english accents and being well spoken?
with 12 inch dicks obviously.
And a little less myspace handheld shots from Ben please. Just share the responsibilities as cameramen so that you all get in there equal.
Also could have done with some sort of drunken night of crazy boozed up and fucked off your tits on something you bought of a hobo and snorted whilst filming yourself having sex with an underage girl addicted to heroin and breast implants whilst the rest of you wank footage.
Maybe thats Vol 2?
Looking forward to it.

Thank you very much for this Dex. The comment about the language though haha, let's say we don't normally speak english that way, just ask anyone who's met us. That was kind of our joke during the trip that we were these Eurotrash guys from somewhere in central europe who were superior to everything that was American, so that's where the accent came from

Thanks to the rest of you guys who commented too. And yeah it's nice using a Mac, but I was kind of disappointed that all the difficulties that video editing normally causes were still there :/ So let's say that editing wise it wasn't that different
29 July 2009, 14:00 UTC#27
I just saw this video, I wish you didn't make such a big deal about there being no stunts.
Stunts and pranks are great, but make the topic's "No stunts in California" title made me not want to watch it. Then when you said it's the most redundant vacation video, that didn't help.
Can't sell yourself short man.
29 July 2009, 14:17 UTC#28
I just changed the topic name because you were bitching about it before haha
And the word 'redundant' is there as a joke because the video is supposed to be over the top slightly gay. It's no serious business. But thanks for watching it anyway dude.
29 July 2009, 14:47 UTC#29
I haven't watched it yet.
I read what you write then write a comment acting like I didn't just read what you wrote. Complaining about exactly what you were trying to diffuse by mentioning it yourself.
Stupid american humor.

You confuse me Alonzo.
