1. john motta skate mental easter egg part

6 months ago

I happened to find a hidden easter egg on the skate mental website in mottas team page questionnaire it brought me to a link of a file host website wich had a compressed file of all of mottas raw unedited footage (img43.imageshack.us/img43/4369/awesomech.jpg ) and in the folder was a letter written and signed by his mom explaining why they hid the footage on the site, the letter basically said he wasnt happy with his footage cuz while he was filming it the year prior he was dealing with severe bipolar 2 mental disorder in and out of the hospital and was told by doctors not to do any physical activity on the meds he was given, so he wanted to have the footage hid on the website for someone to find it and leak it or edit it and so i was that person to find it and heres what i made haha. original forum topic i posted this too ( slapmagazine.com/component/option,com_jfusion/Itemid,4/index.php?topic=55691.0)

im sorry, i do agree. the edit to something ironic like the song/music video clips doesnt work for me with the story behind the hidden footage.

Amazing, add criticism about a video, get branded a hater. Oh internet where are your kittens now?

But seriously, Great skateboard footage, i like the song. But sadly not the music video clips spliced in. Otherwise good job.

Without wanting to sound disrespectful, I can believe that John went to hospital and was unhappy with releasing the footage.

But the story behind the "hidden link" seems more like a stunt by Skate Mental that allowed them to use this part as advertising and attract visitors to their website, without receiving an over-critical response to the footage itself. After all, Motta's Skate Mental pro debut part was overdue and this may or may not have been up to the standard he was hoping for.

Either way I love to watch him skate and definitely stoked on this clip! Wish his part in Buster's video could have been longer..

A couple clips were cut short, but this was one of my favorite motta parts. Wish this would of just came out in a happy medium because a part like this deserves to be on dvd.

I would of never thought to use this song in a edit and love it. Great idea I gotta say im sad you did it cuz next time im making a edit ill want to use it but think of this edit and feel bad copying haha. once again GJ!
Lawrence Meriwether 5 months ago

I thought the edit was hilarious, fuck people taking it too seriously. You should really put the raw footage up though. Not to create a contest out of it, just cause it would be fun to fuck around with.

I also thought the edit was good. While I don't personally like the song that much I still thought it was good for the video. And After all he was the one that found it so he can do whatever he wants with it.
