Born To Skate - First Trailer
1 year ago
EDIT: 25.June 2009
If you are living in germany you are happy to see Born to Skate in a cinema near you in the late german summer.
We have a cooperation with Cineplus and Farbfilm and dates for cinema will be released soon.
So stay online, tuned and on board.
Edit 2.December 2008!
I am glad to tell you:
The film is finished now.
We are just preparing everything to release it and you may get updates here ASAP.
Hope that we may see us in cinema one day ;)
Music:
The music in the trailer is from Chris Heck. The guy that talks and screams in the beginning. The music is nowhere to buy and nowhere to hear except in the trailer. Chris can tell you more about that.

Description:
I quitt skateboard movies when I entered film school.
Now, after 5 years I came back to develop a new style of narration in skateboard movies.
Together with Chris Heck, who is also a protagonist in this movie we try to make our way.
Quentin Tarantino always chilled in the video rental store and was bored of all the same movies. The same happened to with me and all the Skateboard videos.
So,
"Born To Skate" it is a roadmovie, which does not only show skateboarding, but life in its true sense.
It´s my masterwork in filmschool in germany
The film itself will be about 60- 90 minutes long.
There is still, a lot of hard work has still to be done.
Soon, the website: borntoskate.de will be online, and more infos will be available.
I hope you liked the trailer.Please comment and enjoy it.
I am happy about every critic.

Previous Week
2 tricks were filmed with 1000 fps. But that was not the EX1 ;)
mit jedem mal sieht es besser aus!!!
ich kanns kaum noch abwarten, das sieht mal so richtig geil aus!!!
ihr skatet im wald?
wie hammergeil ist das denn? xD
ahhh, bin gerade derbe gestoked, scheiße dass es pisst sonst würde ich sofort skaten gehen :D
Great stuff.
I
But good to know, that it works hardly with subtitles
I got the joke of him being angry averse to him saying he is calm and serene inside. But the problem I think mostly is, is the difference in sound level.
A suggestion could be, that when he is explaining his mental state of calmness, you put the anger in between in him telling he is calm. Maybe slo-mo the sound but for sure, don't make the screams so much louder then the talking. His grunting comes rather unexpected and harsh.
I think this is a great clip. And I really like how that guy almost is over-the-top positive about his skateboard-life and than in one blink of an eye changes the whole mood by shouting how much he hates skateboarding. Ha ha ha! Great stuff.
The contrast in color of that particular moment (yellow to blue) is nice, too.
Nice editting on that jump.
Great Vid!
Great work
What was this shot on?
Thanks for all the compliments
awsome man love it cant wait
One thing, you should look into changing the font you use for the subs. I see you use it for your site too and that's cool, but it's not a good reading font. It's too skinny.
It could become the first skating film I really find unique.
If you want any help proofing your subtitles before you finish it, then I'd be glad to help out. At the moment there are a few subtle but important mistakes which seems slightly humorous and so take away from the drama and tension for native English speakers. I'm not trying to be funny or an asshole, the offer is a genuine one.
Keep up the good work,
jason
