I'm attending the Region 10 North contest at Cherry Valley, AR here in
a few weeks. �I'm planning on making a big video there. �I could sure
use some ideas from you good folks. �I'm not just making the video for
me to enjoy, but for everyone and anyone.

Myself and a friend now have accumalated a couple of cameras, mounts
for wings, rudders, cockpits, etc, tripods, computer editing software,
vocal extraction software for music...the whole nine yards. �I'm in
the process now of writing out a storyline. �I even got a guy who
sounds (and looks) identical to Sean Connery who will be the
background voice. �I want to capture the fun times, dramatic finishes,
etc and make the viewer feel as if they are really there.

Here's a clip of what I made in Perry, SC....honestly it's something I
just kindof threw together in about 1 hour using the editing
software. �I'll spend a whole lot more time with the upcoming one..

Sooo, I could use some ideas in addition to what I already have. �I
hope to make a sizeable movie, less than 30 minutes and post it to
YouTube as a part 1 of 3, 2 of 3 and 3 of 3. �This will not a be a
cheesy crap shoot of a movie. �I hope to capture the BAD-A$$ aspects
of racing.

What would be some cool shots to capture?

Scot ,

As a matter of interest will you be participating in the contest ?
If you plan to compete and take air to air shots I would hope you are
doing the filming from a 2 seater while someone else is flying it .
As a contest flyer I know how much concentration it takes to fly
alongside and close to other gliders without worrying about pilots
doing something besides flying their glider ,

Have you seen "Gladiators of the Sky"? Could give you some ideas!
