Two Beetles from the Low n' Slow VW club in the UK ... sure there's running your car low but Aaron and Simon scrape and bang their dubs everywhere they go.

Both cars are static drop, form over function ....

Enjoy

Like the color grading and music! I'm a fan of VDubs and I myself own a 67 type 3 wagon. I noticed you have your 2:35 to 1 matt but still showing the matt. Check out this tutorial.

philipbloom.net/2010/03/16/how-to-export-and-upload-235-video-to-vimeo/
Jonny Jones 9 months ago

In my opinion I think Stephen left the matte on to give a sense of space... All the BDC films are fully cropped to 2.35:1 so Steve knows what he's doing, great tutorial from Mr. Bloom though!
Stephen Brooks FILMS 9 months ago

Hey Boso

Thanks for the link .. but yeah as Jonny said I was 2:35:1 cropping the drift films as far back as a year or so ago .. I left the bars on and plan to do so for the future on Vimeo as I don't really think the crop works that well on here. Just a personal thing i guess.

As for the wagon .. get a feature shot on it !! .. would love to see it !! :)

Hi Stephen,

Love the bug film a lot!!! May I ask what program you use for the special effects. I want to learn how to do that in my own footage.

Cheers, Mat
Stephen Brooks FILMS 9 months ago

Thanks Mat, everything is done in Final cut with no special plug ins etc

Stephen, had a friend ask where this was shot. Any details?

Also @sajtospogacsa the orange piece is a a rare NOS hood deflector.
Stephen Brooks FILMS 8 months ago

I can't actually tell you !! .. Not that i don't want to .. Its just that i don't know where it was ! .. Somewhere in Milton Keynes basically, not too far from the stadium. I travelled about 3 hours to get there so don't really know MK that well im afraid.
