I like artsy editing but as for the music always listen or edit with the music you like... Don't try to please anyone lol!

Brr is good,maybe even industry standard for anything above tech deck level, when there are more good competitor compa ya I reckon this will change

Eddie make more videos you're like the best fingerboarder in the world and you're really OG
And:

Ima make an awesome video inspired by you now! might use some brr obstacles though heh.

I like BRR obsticals and completely 100% support them i dont want it to come across like i hate BRR lol, i was just looking through youtube coments and see people commenting shit like '' you need brr'' you need a wooden deck'' '' you picked the wrong music '' you should tuck'' '' your style sucks'' '' you need a better camera''.... it just made me mad, everyone seems to follow a crowd... but hey! who am i to say anything about what people do with fingerboarding? id just like to see a little division amd originallity!

But it made me really proud to be British and to be apart of the British scene.

I think we have some of the best styles out there at the moment, when i watch Brits ride, all i see is originallity!

I agree Eddie! Those damn germans getting their style into our heads xD
Make another vid because you're one of my favourite fingerboarders, I love the fast tempo style thingy of your vids!

just watch jaylyn.m's videos, such a sick style.

I <3 THIS THREAD
couldn't agree more, im sick of everyone putting the same chilled music on videos and just trying to copy those damn germans
don't get me wrong, they do have sweet style but it's theirs, don't copy
it's one of the reasons i love FBHQ, you find so many people creating their own style, riding for fun. so glad to be a part of this community and its people like you who make it such a good place to be

Heh, Eddie. I approve of the post but I think most FBHQ people are pretty much safe from this.

As for me:

>Chilled music
I wish I had some but I only mostly listen to pop, alt rock and electronic. I pick songs based on their length and if it's close to the total time of clips I've filmed. I order songs by length and pick one I like.

>Tucked fingers
Nah.

>Has the same shitty style as everyone else
Shitty but not the same.

>Uses BRR
I don't know if you mean the ramps themselves or the shop. The only BR ramp I have is the Winkler Dos since I prefer to make use of DVD boxes instead of spending money on a block of wood. The miniramp can't really be replicated as easily so that's why I have one. I have some TD ramps, Close Up bench and an Airflo rail as well.

>Rides wooden boards
Well I think this is one standard I can live with. You don't complain about skateboarders riding wooden boards (I do know there are some made of other materials but wood is standard). I am probably one of the biggest TD collectors too. There are a couple of videos where I do stuff on those.

>Zooming in and out with the camera
I've never used zoom for fingerboarding.

>HD camera
I'm still rocking my MiniDV camcorder from 2003. It's only 480i/576i.

>"Artsy" editing
I use almost no effects. The only editing I have is just to take the clips I want.

As for watching other people, I wouldn't say I only watch people with those things. Eddie Sharples, I hear he's an awesome fella, has SD videos and is really good with a fingerboard. Euan Lynn also.

PS. It should be "It's".

I tend not to use capitals for filenames. I also use underscores instead of spaces in filenames.

Underscore are messy IMO I never use them in filenames

Yeah_they_look_Dumb_if_I_am_honest.

All I have to say is....that's the most beautiful thing I have ever seen bro!
I'm not going to act like I don't fall in here a little.
And no it's not a bad thing, but love and diversity should have just as strong of an impact too.

Keep it true!

It's people like you,Vince, and many others that keep me into this.

Forget fads and be you.

That should always come first! Great Thread.

Great thred,
I totally agree!

If you wanna find good music for vids here are a few tips:
1. find a video with a song you like found out who's singing that song and then search songs from the same artist

2. in youtube type in indie rock and all the songs will be chill and nice

i really <3 this thread. and i hate overedits like rory makes them... and yeah ...

I'm not a fan of that cod trick shots style editing with far 2 much glitz and glamour

Thanks for the template Xi
>Chilled music
I just use songs I'm really into at the time of making the video, which is most likely always gonna be underground hip hop.

>Tucked fingers.
Used to, but I realized how much easier some tricks are, so I stopped.

>Has the same shitty style as everyone else
I'm not exactly sure what my style is like, so no clue on that one.

>Uses BRR
I don't own a single BRR product, probably won't be until I'm a lot older.

>Rides wooden boards
I think what people mean when they tell someone "you should get a wooden board" on youtube, is that they want the person to get better, cuz' that's how it is for most people who use wooden boards.

>Zooming in and out with the camera
I film by myself, so that would be a pain in the ass to do.

>HD camera
I really don't care what camera people use, as long as I can see the tricks pretty well, there's nothing wrong with hd.

>"Artsy" editing
With the static shots I take, it would look dumb to try and make them look "artsy".
