Over the past few days, I have been editing footage taken at this year's ZdayZ. As always, some comes out great and some is garbage. This is why you shoot a lot so the odds work in your favor.

Being a camera crew of one, there are some things I couldn't capture. To get a complete feel for the event, I would like to ask if you are willing to donate (send) me a CD / DVD of your raw footage. Of course you will receive credit and have that uber-satisfaction of contributing to the total flick.

While you can feel free to send any footage, here are the scenes I am especially searching for:

Caravans to ZdayZ:
1) I have great coverage of the North Central caravan down. Since I was shooting, I don't have a single clip of my red convertible with black wheels on the way down.

2) Any other caravan headed to ZdayZ. (Florida group??)

3) (North Central) Footage rolling through Pigeon Forge, the Gatlinburg By-pass, RT441 through the Smokies or Hwy 28 West to Fontana.

4) Any humor / crazyness / Pranks

5) More personal shots.

I can't promise all your footage will be used. Depends on quality and content. I am starting with a summary of the Michigan Z Crew. I will spend the summer working on a better quality summary with everyone's clips. Those who send me footage will get a copy sent back in return by Labor Day.

PM me if you are willing to donate raw video files from ZdayZ. (No YouTube Links or cell phone video. - Too low of resolution.) GoPro footage is encouraged!

 

Do you want me to cross post this to the 370z forum?

 

Please do so!

Oh yes, and I need your video files too! LOL

 

I'll toss what I have on my external drive or laptop and bring it tomorrow.

 

You can dig through what I posted up my gallery.

Awesome, I can give you a sneak peak and what I have so far.

 

I totally forgot the Top Dawg Event as well. I'll scroll through what you have posted and check the resolution. I may ask for the raw file if your online storage did a lot of compressing and reduction in quality.

BTW: The flaming Z was awesome.

 

What's tomorrow? Some event or meet?

 

Lee and I are just meeting up for lunch. He's helping me obtain much needed software.

 

Wutwerd??? Looks like a nice night for it!!!
