Promotional Video
« on: October 05, 2009, 11:22:21 am »

I am going to do a promotional video about the club to post on YouTube and other video sites and show at PB and other VW events.

I need a narrative for the video and would like everyone to submit ideas for the storyline. I know it's hard without seeing the video but I am going to build the video around the storyline. I have enough video and photos that I can build around every aspect of the club.

You can submit a whole story or just suggestions for the story and I will edit everything I get and add it to the video. We have one of the most diverse group of enthusiast then any other club I know and it should be a great story to show others why they should belong to SJVWC.

The tentative title is:


  THE STORY


Thanks for your help.

Well, this is the kind of response I thought I would get.

I try to make the site and club a little better and I have to beg.

Never mind, this would be like trying to get pictures for Members Cars sent to me.

SCREW IT!!

I'll throw this out there. 2CENTS Just the first 15 seconds ...not even that much really.

Just the "I want something great" and the "we aint great we are just some guys from Jersey" part. 5-6 seconds
Then cut to shots of bugs speeding by...after that I have no clue.
I don't even know how to edit just that part....but I bet Greg does....

My work here is done....ship my Oscar ASAP.... :icon_cheesygrin:

im not sure where to go with the story line maybe a parody off of a movie classic like 2001 space odessy or redo part of a classic car movie like greese or hollywood knights and have members act out the parts with their own cars.  or just shoot in a documentary style, can anyone do a morgan feeman voice for the narrative.  i think this would be a great idea Jack dont get down because of the lack of posts im sure its just a slow starting topic.  let me knwo what you need im more then happy to help in anyway possible.

Great idea but have to stay away from popular music so U Tube don't cut the audio.

thats a great idea, whats the chance of flashing on VW themes in the media, like
a quick flash of some of the old ads or even a short section with the scene from Woody Allens "Sleeper" when they find the old dub after years and it starts..

Hey think "Lemorris" he does lots with very little more than good camera shots & good music.
