well here it is. i think it turned out rather nicely.

http://www.wegame.com/watch/Strangers_From_the_Sky_Vol_2/


i want to thank all of you that sent in your footage. there's a total of i think 21 people in it (including me twice!), and everybody really brought their best stuff. it was fun to edit and i can't wait till next time. don't hold your breath, because you will be dead by the time that happens, but it will happen again.

big thanks to:
eflixxx for banging out ANOTHER killer part so quickly after dp54
heshfield for putting a full part together in like a week and a half
clayfighter for blowing it and not sending any footage in
demz for waiting untill the buzzer, then sending footage hours later. (jk come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnn man)
joshmutiny for helping me find some tunes
all of triple threat for everyone on the team submitting footage.
and ME.


disclaimers:
the ending credits have bad timing but honestly, who cares. does anybody want to watch it to see some credits?
everybody filmed themselves, as you all know, so if you feel you were poorly represented, tell it to the mirror.
i did some clip trimming but overall only left a handful of tricks out.
it's still in letterbox because i've never used reel before. i recommend full screen viewing.


enjoy, and congratulate yourselves.

dude that was just sick. props to you for editing that. that was possibly the sickest skate 2 video i've seen yet. thank you for that piece of art.

heshfield
05-02-2009, 06:46 PM
Wow. I gotta say, I'm proud to a part of this 'cause everybody showed up bigtime.
Rob- wallrides on the house
Bullet- terrorizing the cams
Josh- an SFTS vet; i like the noseblunt lipslide a lot. **youre the music-man so extra special thanks.**
Tub- smooth again, as always
Me- it was all in the editing; slight of hand and mirrors. Thanks, rob.
TT- adding some seriousness to the party. cant wait 4 the full.
195Tour- Great title fonts. perfect.
Eflixxxxxxxxxx- holy gawd, man. Furiously ripping. Hallway rail nollie nosegrind, the ender, how? how do you not hit that doorway? I did. haha.
montage- everyone contributed greatly. Animalhouse's cab noseblunt and everything from Quetonto's entrance to SG's hypnotic ledge skills, Skatehead tearin it up, and everyone else too.
Emmit- love how the song carries you in, and holy crazy lipslide body varial boardslide.
Rob- again? haha. KF 5-0 stall fakie on the fence, yea.
Ancors- Some of my favorite camera work. Roof gaps and 3flip boardslides.
Demz- That gap nollie lip shuvit was nice as hell. and the revert 3flip actually exists! haha, wow.
Classic credits ended by your ugly mug, Rob. You sure as hell came through making this all possible. For that I thank you, and also for letting me be in it. I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Your editing skills are superior. Must have been a shitload of clips. haha

Robley, you are the man.

Everyone else in it...you are the men. That was pure gold start to finish. I need to watch it a few more times before I give one of those play by play reviews that are so popular these days.


Thank you for letting me be a part of it.

Damn man, you put that out quick, wasn't expecting to see the finished product till early next week sometime.

trippy ride, i likes. the bluriness added to the trippiness, altough i don't know if it was intentional.

very good skating from everyone and the edit was spot on.

i want more.

greenlake
05-03-2009, 05:24 AM
blurriness wasn't intentional. my crappy setup does not like crappy reel clips, and when i tried to render it in highest quality most of the transitions were green somehow.

Whole video was incredibly dope!!

I watched it twice in a row this afternoon. Too many good tricks and part to mention...

The ads were sick. Loved that.

Props to Robley for the editing work. It flowed really well and looked good, even with the slight blur. Great pacing made the 16 mins fly by!!

05-03-2009, 07:53 PM
I am definitely glad i got to be a part of this.
Turned out amazing.

Been gone for the weekend, just watched it twice in a row.
I hope to see a ton more of these... haha.

Great work Robley. Major props to you.

Everyone threw down. :D

greenlake
05-03-2009, 08:35 PM
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah it's EA.


i put it up over there only to get it on the blog next week. so comment on it everybody i'm trying to sell us out.

WE DESERVE IT.


glad everybody likes it. otherwise i would've had to change my name and pretend i was someone else.

So much awesomeness put in one package.. Gotta love vids like this!

13:58 lipslide body varial is something that I cant express in words :eek:

schnavolda
05-04-2009, 03:04 AM
sick, sick, sick.

i can't name which tricks and whose part i liked most. i'm so stoked. the whole package just felt right. i mean it was a bit blurry and bit hectic sometimes, but that was no big deal at all. at times, it felt like 15 years ago where i was watching a vhs copy of a super dope skateboard video my friends were all hyped about. good feeling ...

First chance to comment on this video, although I have watched it about 4 times all the way through... Everyone KILLED it in this video! Big thank you to Robley for editing all of this madness together and actually making it all flow together perfectly!

Too much good skating to comment on each skater but overall each person brought their own style of skating to the mix and you can really see how good everyone has gotten with the cams..

It would not be a video without an Embers Bail so good job for getting THAT one in there... haha good job everyone!!

my "play by play" review thing (*warning, it's damn long):

Love the first song, and sky shots, nice editing.

Robley 1: whatever, I like everything you do, so shutup, but that frontside flip over the rail, and that 3flip up those stairs made me cry tears of joy

Me: Hard to follow your stuff, but thanks for putting me in there, so stoked

Mutiny: love the noseblunt to lipslide, and those nosebluntslide on that big letter B

Tubilakken: smoothness, kickflip blunt 270 out at slappy's, how??

Heshfield: such a good part, that stalefish looked amazing. Frontnose up the bankledge revert out at 5:13 was hot. HOT.

Triple Threat: Somehow you make filming from the knees down look cool. Look forward to the full length (that's what that was for right)

Not quite sure what a tour in this game means, but I'm all for it if it involves you gentlemen.

Eflixxx: you're a footage machine, the best camera work out there, love the nollie noseblunt with the camera guy, and that back nosegrind to pop over the gap thing at 7:51, and how you (and robley) skate that wall by G.E.D. pool still blaffles me.

Montage: Good song, to many people to single out each individually, but I'll say some things anyways about some individuals.

Animalhouse: such a proper cab noseblunt, hard to do on those higher ledges.

Que: I don't know why, but that 3flip back5-0 looked sooo goood.

Triple Threat guys: So good, so clean, cool original signature filming that works well. props

Sign Guy: love your style, and your trick selection. 10 out of 10 for you sir.

ninety4: I like your kit

skatevid2: all good

skatehead: wallride kickflip over the can. great.

EB: tech tricks going insanely fast. Obviously the boardslide bodyvarial which has been mentioned a million times

Robley2: judo over the stairs, I don't know if you saw that girl there and were just like "let's kick that" or if it was just a coincidence, but it was awesome.

Anchors: one of my favorite styles, so aggressive, I don't know how you do that thing where you land your tricks and throw your arms down (that heelflip over the roof gap for example), but it looks better then anything.

Demzilla: holy shit



I've lost count of how many times I've watched this. Thank you Robley...thank you. Again, I can't believe how fast you put this out. Sorry it's taken me so long to give a full review of this work of art/genius.
