yeah i know how this guy feels, my grad is june 5th and all my finals are next week. its been a bitch to try to go out and get footage. i plan on getting a video made by the end of next month, hopefully i get it out in time lol.

Any kind of skating. Show us what you're good at and what you love to do.

yeah I haven't started either. I'm trying convince my friend to let me borrow his cam. Also no one wants to film haha

Tell your friends that if they film you'll hook them up with good deals when you get sponsored!
Or have them film you, and you film them and make two videos.

I've asked a couple friends to film me. Some of them don't even skate. The thing is, people love to use cameras. Just ask someone if they'll film you skating because you're trying to get sponsored, and I'm sure they'll be glad to. Even if they don't film very well, it's footage. Also, good editing can make up for bad filming.

The other option is to use a tripod. I've done that a few times and I came out with some pretty good videos.

Now that I think about it, I have plenty of footage to use for a video, but I really want to go out on some filming sessions specifically for this.

Also, I graduate next Sunday. Or maybe it's this Sunday...? Haha either way I'M ALMOST DONE.

It's true. I have a friend who doesn't skate, but is more than willing to film. Maybe because that's his major...
