Ta dude!!

It was on tonight and it was rather good!

Nice footage of Phil's car.

However...the best bit of drifting i saw tonight was not Round 4 on Motors TV...

It was a short clip on Eurosport HD just before the WRC coverage.

Titled "Extreme Testing", it was a 1min clip of Sleepy talking about Drifting and footage of Team Orange at Silverstone...in HD! Now THAT was a top bit of drifting production!!!!

T.J. · 02-08-2008, 08:15

Tbh, I thought it was crap. Which is a shame cos the event was really good.
The footage was more like a home video. Several times the cameraman lost the cars completely & was just panning an empty track. There's no commentary during the runs, not even saying who's out there. For anyone that doesn't know this would make it impossible to understand.
Motors tv need to put more effort in if edc is going to get the exposure it deserves

It's not Motors TV who does it tho, its Clash Productions.

Its the same style as Time Attack too...at the moment its just random footage with no commentary. Then you get the odd interview thrown in between.

And yeah the footage quality is not the best..but the Eurosport HD clip which I assume was done by them also..show's it could be done a lot better!

cookiemonster · 02-08-2008, 12:40

I didnt think it was very gd tbh shame !!

Swanny_UK · 02-08-2008, 14:35

While the coverage and production wasnt very good, it was a mile better than the coverage of TIme Attack at Oulton Park.

While I have no idea what footage they did shoot, and how/why they decided to put it together like that, or reasons involved, but I'd confidently say that if it were me, I'd have done it differently. Ive have had a hell of a lot more material, recorded Maz's comentary to add to the program, and edited it slgihtly differently.

niko · 02-08-2008, 15:07

I thought it was generally quite good. Clear improvement in comparison to the previous ones I've seen. However, the drifting parts are still missing commentary and the filming/editing is sometimes a bit unprofessional as stated above. For example, names were spelled wrong, and I think I saw the 'pop-up' text saying the final is between N. Kumakubo and B. Castle...

Anyway, I definitely think it's getting better, but still needs further improvements. The 30 mins are of course a bit of a challenge, especially with the commercials in between. Nevertheless, big respect for actually acting on the feedback they've got.

Will there be some 'EDC special' from Sunday's team drift event, since that if anything would be interesting to watch?

Aye - dont get me wrong, I'm dead pleased that someones taking the project on and getting drifting much more public, and I hope any comments we make are only seen as constructive criticism. I'm sure I'm not the only one who appreciates their efforts thus far.

cookiemonster · 03-08-2008, 22:26

As above im glad its still on the telly, and i think the person/s behind it are doing a good job they have been getting better but there is still room for them to be better in my eyes !!

MC2 · 18-08-2008, 14:41

I think it was knockhill that some bloke was doing the live commentary as the cars were drifting, not all the pre-planned and reading a piece of paper as they did with the American bloke last year. Who works for Motors TV as i've heard him do other shows aswell.
