VIDEO: Wairamarama Mr Moto Ride.

[oldskool]

A bit of everything in here.
Views of steep drop offs, narrow ridges, slippery downhills and a watercrossing.
Glimpses of Noobs, Reck, Poggy and FlyingCr in there somewhere.



Technical guff for those bothered.
2 camera angle. The front camera failed as polarising filter stuffed up the fisheye. Once fisheye fell off (bad mounting) the vid settled down but only a narrow field of view.
Post production. Mixing together 2 different formats, mp4 and mjpeg, with 2 different fps, 29.97 and 30, is a pain. This was a rough cut. The picture in picture segments (of front and rear view) were synched but after rendering to flash, the timing went out the door. And was the sound.
Transcoding both to DV1 before post production is the answer but the quality will drop. I'll do that next ride.

pretty tricky stuff mate!
Pity the body mounted cameras never show the roughness or steepness of the trials?
Would mounting to your fork leg or beside your number plate do this??
You'd have to take the edge off your pace so you didn't bust the camera in a fall I'd Imagine.

I've thought about mounting one inside the radiator shroud so you can see the front wheel pounding up and down and the rest of the track infront of you.
