The idea for this video came from a night of goofing off with friends and tossing ideas around. When this song began to play in the background, I knew I had to edit a drift video to it, but not just any drift video. That's when I decided to make a video using only the help of wearable/mountable cameras. Many questions arise when considering such a project. How will I get my hands on enough cameras? My old, broken GoPro SD sure wasn't going to cut it. And then, once I have enough cameras, how can I mount them in ways that keep the viewer interested throughout the entire video? I can assure you, this was a slightly daunting prospect that quickly found it's home in the recesses of my mind. That is, until Antonio Alvendia introduced me to Jason from ContourHD at the Apex'i/Lexus debut party in Seattle. I swear, that guy knows everyone!

This video is far from perfect, but I feel it captures some of the excitement and carefree qualities of drifting that are often difficult to see or feel through a lens or computer screen. I chose to leave the colors/exposure/contrast/everything alone with this video. There is zero color grading and very little audio mixing. My intent was to not only create a fun, relaxed drifting video, but to also show the grassroots drivers what these cameras are capable of straight out of the box.

A huge thanks goes out to Jason at ContourHD for making this project a possibility. Without the help of the ContourHD 1080p, my dream of an all point-of-view drift video may have never come to fruition.

    "This video is far from perfect, but I feel it captures some of the excitement and carefree qualities of drifting that are often difficult to see or feel through a lens or computer screen."

    So true. This is exactly why this movie, although "far from perfect," is perfect.

    Good work like always Justin :P

    I think, because of the song, you really feel the carefree-lets-have-fun-and-care-about-nothing-else.

    Nice movie BTW.
  • Justin Shreeve plus 1 year ago
    I'm glad the message is getting across. Thanks, guys!

    Loving this. Just pure fun.
  • Sean Incantalupo 1 year ago
    Also, what engine setup are you running, Justin?
  • Justin Shreeve plus 1 year ago
    Thanks, Sean! Just a stock KA, unfortunately. It's been working alright for me so far though!
  • Sean Incantalupo 1 year ago
    Hey, it works, right? And it gives me hope for my E30 project. I didn't know if it would have enough power to spin the tires. Now I just think I'll weld the diff, and put on some coilovers!
  • Justin Shreeve plus 1 year ago
    Exactly!

    Like the new style. Having many multiple cameras made for some nice shots.
    Liked the intro as well
  • Justin Shreeve plus 1 year ago
    For sure. I'm super grateful to ContourHD for allowing me to get so many angles. Super fun to film, too, as you can surely see from watching the video.

    the music reminds us to vice city because they used the same music in the game.

    I really like how you gave the appearance of leaving the garage, driving around nonchalantly and just coming across what appears to be a pre-marked course in a parking lot for drifting--it's not until you see the tents set up that it actually becomes apparent the drift event was pre-planned--awesome!
  • Justin Shreeve plus 1 year ago
    I'm glad you liked that. I didn't even think of doing it until the day of, but I thought "I've got plenty of cameras, why not?" haha

    Thanks, Cameron.

    Haha I was havin a cookout last night and they were playing this song on the radio, weird. That was sooooooooooo sick though!
  • Justin Shreeve plus 1 year ago
    haha My friend and I were talking about this video in a convenience store in Washington. Talking about how, after you edit to a song, it's hard to like it after that. I'm like, "I'm sick of that song!" This random hipster chick's all, "Gary Numan rocks!" Or something like that. haha
  • Allen Saylor 1 year ago
    lmao, I hear ya, after I make skate edits I just cant watch them or listen to the song for months
  • Justin Shreeve plus 1 year ago
