Do not use the song "Clubbed to death" or I will club you to death.

Same goes for that song from Requiem For a Dream

Mask the microphone if you have the windows down. No one likes wind noise.

i absolutely hate that, especially in dyno run videos.

i wanna hear the engine, not some ****ty linkin park song.
and i don't want to sit through two minutes of nothing for a 30 second run!

edit: i honestly didn't see nicktheskater's reply till after i made mine! glad i'm not the only one who feels that way!

do not waste my time with 500 pictures of your car that I don't care about.

make sure the engine sound is picked up and sounds good. otherwise, do it again, bitch.

make sure the video quality is good. do not make sounds. do not talk.

hahahhah! no joke, i saw a vid of two cars racing, passing a cop than running. the one guy turned off and the idiots with the camera video taped the whole route home. it was epic

Utube reminds me of Andy Warhol's 1968 statement: "In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes."

Everybody thinks that just any video of themselves is worth watching. Even just them driving normally listening to some song on the stereo with the windows down.

Can you guys post some horrible examples?? Just for reference.

Pretty much every youtube car video.

Thanks for posting this thread, it sums up my thoughts nicely.

please vote for my video, "Porsche Dreams" by "Haynie Brothers"

vote for it because it's to the point, exciting and does not have all of things you don't want to see in an online video.

you be the judge. please share your feedback here.

I'm not entirely comfortable with this blood-soaked celery, but I'll eat it anyway. Of all the evidence I've eaten though, I like KNIFE.

They're not lesbians, they're just British.

Or failing that, at least wear something besides flip-flops or sandals.

I swear to God, at least 90% of the start-up/exhaust videos I've seen are like that.

Get some Jordans or something, damn...

"Think, you humans who are split into two worlds, unless you want the gulf between humans to expand into oblivion, you must think!"

The open door warning chime. Oh yeah... make sure you leave the keys in the ignition and the door open before you hit record! Awwww yeah!

I get so hot and bothered just thinkin about it... I'm gonna go search youtube for "camaro exhaust note" right now!

Apart from the video, what is wrong with sandals?

"Wrong"? Nothing really. (Except when people wear socks with them. WTF? )

"Think, you humans who are split into two worlds, unless you want the gulf between humans to expand into oblivion, you must think!"

here is a perfect example my friend did: Rhys Millen testing the Genesis Coupe at El Toro

and his latest piece from Formula D Long Beach 2009 (more engine sounds)

Music playing at 75% or higher THROUGHOUT the entire clip. Especially if it is edited in afterwards. Pisses me off SOOOOO bad.

and

Random 5+ second panning shots that pan to nothing, sit there, and then pan back to something pointless because the camera-person is a fricking moron.

EDIT PEOPLE!!! You took the 10 minutes to find some sh~tty song on limewire and put it IN your video....now spend another 10 clipping all the "I'm gonna go postal" inducing moments OUT of 'em!!!!

these same problems should be avoided in OTHER types of amateur filming as well
