the editing is really awesome but i couldent understand half of the stunts its a shame to waste all of these great stunts for anouter editing project

[RedX]

Editing should make stunts look better not the other way around. This is quite obvious thing I think but it seems that someone just doesn't understand it.

Should? That's just your point of view, man. Beat wrote in the description of his video:
"A cinematic stunting experience."
And that's what this is. The focus was on cool angles during massive airs, grinds and backflips and stuff, instead of the usual focus on nailing a natural bump to grind, or nailing a p2b2roof, and the editing being a tool for making the stunts look as impressive as possible. In this video it was the opposite, just like you said: the stunts, by looking cool, complimented the editing. Who are you to say what's right and wrong? Let people express their own style for pete's sake.

I enjoyed this video. Even though I didn't see everything that was going on, I tried to detach myself from the role of being a stunter, and simply appreciate the "cinematic experience".

That said, I'd sure love to see the stunts in a conventional edit, because a lot of them seemed really impressive, something the editing did not bring out.

Edit: Oh and one more thing. I think that using conventional gta "stunts" was a bad idea. You should have asked the stunters to focus on performing more realistic and good looking stunts. Basic grinds, ramp double backflips, drifting, flying through gaps... that sorta stuff. I think it would fit in way better than those; let's face it; weird crash-into-an-edge-and-suddenly-you-can-fly-200ft-in-the-air type of things. If you ever decide to make a vid like this again, I hope you'll at least consider these words.

lol Flow sadly but true.

I really enjoyed the angles and all, the editing was really cool, you did an awesome job.

but also i agree with morbid a bit.
It's good that Dak has his own version, can't wait 

ohbtw, how do you direct stunt video? 
You tell Dak how tu stunt and where to land?
Or you tell Nico or gay tony or w/e the guy is how to act, i never really got it 

[Squeak]

It's all good, but...who directed the video?

[A maid]

I could only see one stunt clearly. Nice editing, but stunt videos are supposed to be about the stunts, so really showing them is the first step of the editing process.

It's all good, but...who directed the video?

i too can't find it anywhere 

[iCy]

the haters again... annoying.  But anyway this method of editing isn't capable for stunting videos imo as you can see the comments^
I enjoyed it!!

[FTO]

Really..The stunts were potentially great but the editing just ruined it. But I'm sure it's damn damn hard to finish editing this video so I have nothing more to say.

Waiting for Dak's own version for a clearer look on these stunts.

Reading the topic I was happy to see Beat not replying to any of the posts. Keep doing your own thing mate, trying new things may not guarantee success but not trying is a guaranteed failure. Haters gonna hate, just rise above it and let them do their thing.

Downloading, I'll check it out tomorrow.

Haters? Cmon, it's not hating, in this topic is alot of constructive coments which tells why it wasn't allright.
That's not hating man, we're just pointing out the obvious!

In that case you're the hater aswel, since you said basicly the same as everyone here -.-

And imma tell this one more time, editing was absolutely stunning, but yeh it's just not going along with stunting man ;/
