So, I am going to try and cover new dvd’s that have just came out or are coming out to let you guys get the low down on these. Here is some info on the new video From Nothing. You can spot the trailer on BMXonline or on their website Youth BMX
So here it is!
Name of the DVD?
The Name of the DVD is “From Nothing”, and it’s just a showcase of all of the well know, as well as unknown talent from this city.
Who all has parts?
Full parts are John Dixon, Travis Kiesow, Tony Neyer, Josh Suhre, Jeremiah Smith, myself, as well as a 6 minute random section of all the locals, and a 3 minute “Friends” section which are out of town friends who have came here to film a few clips.
Who is doing the filming for the project?
90% of the filming was done by myself, but certain clips were also filmed by people like Chad Shack, Will Stroud, Walter Perringer, and other riders in the vid.
What is the expected length?
The length of the video I’m not 100% but I think it’s a little over a half hour long. 31 minutes I want to say.
Any special features you can tell us about?
Special features are just the typical bonus material, about 7 minutes of crashing, and a 10 minute random footage montage of just dumb stuff I’ve filmed over the years.
Anything that will stand out in the DVD?
I think what will stand out is how diverse and unique Cincinnati is. Not only the city itself shown through the old architecture in the spots, but also the personalities here are like no where else, and most who travel through here, or stay with us will agree. Every night going out riding mostly consists of non stop laughs and jokes, and I really try to emphasize that in most of the parts. The riders here all have different styles, and after watching every part you’ll notice that. It’s not the same tricks being done by different people, I hate watching those kinds of videos. Aside from all that, just keeping it light hearted, but entertaining. That and I really am picky about videos and filming in general. I hate the elusive overused fisheye, and I try to always think of the best angle for every shot, but since 10% wasn’t filmed by me, there’s always things Im not happy with but that’s life. Same with editing, I tried not to over edit it, other than the intro, I really just let the riding speak for itself.
When do you expect to have it out?
It was actually just released Friday here in Cincinnati, and I started mailing them out the day before. The premiere was amazing, around 200 people crammed into one backyard, I couldn’t have asked for a better night.
Where can people get it and for how much?
As of right now, the only two places that sell it are Dans Comp, and Empire. They are retailing for $12.99 because I am more concerned with as many people as seeing it as possible. I hope that by making the quality top notch, and the price lower than most that it will be successful and get as much coverage to this wonderful city as possible, there’s a few people here that definately deserve it.
