Video TR: Cedar Point 2010

[Invertalon]

I just wanted to share a video I completed, finally... Since school was out I had some time this morning to throw it together. It is nothing amazing, but I thought some would enjoy to see some CP during this offseason! It has some footage from the most magical moment I have had at CP, starlight in a crazy thunderstorm. My girlfriend and I were the only two in the entire starlight midway during the insane electrical storm. With the music and lights, it was incredible...

 

Lighting was poor the day I took all this video, and planned to go back and get plenty more to work with at the end of the season. However, it was a HOT year and we ended up going to GL much more and never got back to getting more video. But yeah, harsh light with ugly skies. I also had limited rides recorded, hence the lack of variety.

 

I recommend watching in 720/1080 full HD... Enjoy

Pretty sweet video. But I am stunned at the quality. I can't watch it in 1080 because my computer shows it really laggy but in 720 it is just so clear. Which makes me now have to ask...What camera was this shot with?

Bad song, but I like the clips.

 

I'm surprised Cedar Point had the fountain shots on Maverick running? They weren't running all 3 times I went to Cedar Point last year, but at least they had them running when you shot the video. Nice work.

[Invertalon]

You know, I have never seen those fountains NOT work the dozen or so times I went this season (and last season). If they don't work, its rare.

 

Appreciate the compliments, thanks. I thought the song was different and had some aspects I liked for the video, and a length that I needed. It worked out pretty good.

 

I shot this on my Canon 7D with a variety of lenses.

Nice video! I like how at 0:23 and 1:41 Maverick's water cannons sync up with the music.

Great job.

That video was awesome! It makes me really miss CP

[Invertalon]

Thanks everybody!

 

I look forward to getting a few days of footage next season with some unique perspectives to make a video unlike most. I have some great ideas, I just never got around to get the footage.

 

Appreciate the comments though, glad you enjoy it.

 

I should have a new photo TR in the next few weeks of Universal/IOA that I am excited about. Bring all the gear down with me!

Great job as always, Invertalon...I always look forward to your updates. Someday, I would love to be able to invest the money in a really good camera/camcorder to get this type of quality.

 

Ya know...I really need to start playing the lottery too! That way, I can quit my day job and just do crazy theme park reviews and go on TPR trips all the time!

[Invertalon]

I hear you!! I just got two mega-millions numbers tonight... Hoping one day to hit it! My odds are as good as anybody else, right??? hahaha

 

I would be happy to drop out of college and just peruse my passions... Cooking, photography and traveling... Maybe go to flight school... Buy a private plane... Why not??? Screw the engineering!

Really nice video! Looks like a crazy good time when you had the thunderstorm in the Starlight Experience.
