Cedar City Ftoy DVD Video - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Chris Geiger · 07-18-2006, 02:56 PM

I put together a DVD of this weekend F-toys in competition. This is a basic video of the Ftoys in action. Trail-Gear is offering a free copy of this DVD video to each of the competitors that attended the Cedar City event. It is our hope that you can use the footage to help evaluate each team's performance and to show friends how well F-toys do on the rocks. The DVD has a running time of 1 hour.

Those competitors that would like to receive a copy, please PM me your name and address and I will send it out to you.

cool! thanks chris!

The output from the camera is as good as anything I have seen from other off-road videos and none of the quality is lost because it's all digital from the camera to the computer and on to cd.

This video is not what I would consider ready for primetime however. It has no music, no transitions, no special effects at all. It's just raw f-toy video straight from the camera to disc. This was assembled in just one evening. Normally a video of this length takes several full days of editing for a pro look. If there is interest then later in the year we may take highlights from this and other event video and put together a professional video.

I'll be taking the highlights from this event video and working those in to our regular TGTV episodes on our web site so everyone will see the cool stuff. If I had the server bandwidth I would put the full video on the web but the file is 4.2 gig. That would take about 12 hours to download and bring our server to its knees.
