It's our End of Season drink up with movie contest!
Dexter and Hayes will be hosting us, come for the beer, meet some new friends, watch some cool videos of our the forum rides and riders.
A dollar per vote will be taken for the 50/50 split. Half to the biker down fund, half to the winner of the video contest. So bring your cash and support your fellow bikers instead of those strippers for a night ;-)
Drinks at 5, movies at dusk.
Movie contest: Bring a short film on a usb drive or submit it here prior to Sept 15th. I'll have my laptop and a projector and speakers. Movies at duskish. I'll be there drinking away my sorrows of a rainy summer season.
Video contest details:
The lack of good motorcycle movies out there is depressing, so let's make our own!
Get your video cams going; shoot group rides, choppin frames, rallys, racing trikes, drinkin beer round the fire, you know...being bikers. Capture our 2010 season (does not have to be meetup specific) in a video/montage and we will have a contest in September. The winning video will be posted on our home page, lets make this an annual contest.
We will post all the video montages on meetup along with a poll for voting, the poll wont be posted until Sept 7th. You can submit up to 3 videos and they must be accessible online or given to Elise at movie night via cd or jump drive.

Cash prize for 1st place!
Videos will be played at dusk.
Due date for video submissions: September 15th.
Wrap up the season with a drinkup in the garden at Dexter Hayes: Sunday September 19th*
*I've got confirmation from Dex Hayes, they are happy to host us, its on! Drinks at 5, movies at dusk.
Ok, get your cameras out and let the games begin!
I will submit my entry before I leave and will video an acceptance speech you can play when I sweep the Oscars for Best Editing, Soundtrack and Picture.
@Rene, since it's a recap of 2010 it will be hard to make more than one. But I'm not sure we would get 5 entries if we only do one., We need more videographers on board.
OMG if Luke wasnt asleep right now I'd be lauging out loud @Renes submission feed comment haha. Oh sh*tttt hahah. Ok so I'd say you want to keep it to your best one. So wait until you review all yours during the year and make a grande ol summary video. Youd be surprised at how many we could get. If it looks dismal on the entries we can re-evaluate. I say we put on this event and open it up to all rider groups. Maybe instead of so specific, just best video trip log of 2010?
ok, how long will it last @Ian 3 minutes or less ... I mean whats the time limit on the video and Ian not the video of you and I in bed thats for the gold this is for motorin so hold the speech baby, Im wearing the pants on this one, Dont get excited well not on the meet up board hehehe
ok so video can be stills as well as video put it to music to yer hill billy sister givin birth do what ya must but put out Im mean up so Im starting the video footage runs will post one this week will do a seires Ian you will have to pay extar to go on the runs and can I tape your speech it will be the ringer in my sundance winner video, I will pay 5 bones to submit more then one video hint hint capitalist for a cause
Ok final rule, simple:
Can upload up to 3 submissions, can use any online video hoster, due by Sept 6th and I need access to the top 5s for showing on movie night. Easy! Shoot away, oooo I got some GOOOOD ones. You will be jealous.
Hi Randy, no copyright issues other than not having the music shut off (which I think that would put a damper on your submission) There are ways of stripping out the name of the song so it doesnt get shut down off youtube or the like. Yeah I'm glad you are interested, I know you will come up with something good.
Ok, i just submitted my first one to the discussion...beat that!
Just submitted my first entry. Will have to see if I have another one in me :)
Great scenery, looks like an amazing time Ian...the video quality is so clear, what do you use?
I use a Contour HD 1080p though I just use the 720p setting as it takes half the memory as 1080. I much prefer the Contour over the GoPro as the field of vision is more natural and it is easier to use.
That was a great day and I love watching this video as it takes me straight back there.
Hey, can we have an extension on video submission, since they are online etc,. With the holiday weekend etc,. It's hard to meet the Labor Day deadline...Let me know, thanks..
Hi, Ya lets extend it, rewriting the "rules" right now.
I'm not gonna hold an online "Top 5" since not enough entries, so lets have a live contest. Those that show up vote!
tent porn from all of our campouts!!! haha...tee pee creepin isn't just for injuns anymore....

And the winner is.....ME! haha Ok I didn't rig it. Trying to upload it to youtube at the moment. Thanks to everyone who participated, one of our best drink ups yet. All the money collected for the votes went in to the down fund. We raised 103.00 that night, my portion was donated back since...well I dont need it....Sweet. Thanks all. Can you upload your videos? Would take me forever to submit all those and not all want them online. Thanks.
Some folks have asked I post info on software and audio. I use corel video studio and I hear if you speed up your audio by 5% among other tricks avail, youtube wont disable it.
