Delta Roofa Palooza Round 2

The second annual Delta Roofa Palooza organized by the same paloozers kicked off right this August. The Dynamic Realtime Players were able to roofa three (plus) wakeboard boats and the recognizable pontoon boat joined. DRP 2 was bigger, louder, and is now etched in the attendee’s brain as the funnest day known to man. With the Digital Related Press, next year will be even bigger.

Like last time, two Dramatic Ridiculous Philmmakers captured footage (Jacob Wayne Bondesen and Blake Rabe) and two videos were edited with the same footage: Rabe cut a version and Bondesen cut one. Be sure to check out both:

Blake Rabe’s version

In this above version, Blake used a song that was remixed by a friend – it works as a music video to the track.

Jacob W Bondesen’s version

In this version, Jacob used copyrighted music for all four minutes despite the second song – one of the DRPers was involved in the track while his Hawaiian Haole boy amigos sang over his guitar.

Different Reels Per filmmaker, you can see the contrast in editing style and even the choices of footage were drastically different at times.

Come to next year’s event.

Wakeboard Camp at E.W.

Today I took photos on Lake Austin of Aric Denton and friends teaching children the art of wakeboarding at a summer camp they do every week. There were a lot of skiers out there too, so can’t leave them out. I wanted to share some of the shots I captured. I go back tomorrow to photograph the kids I wasn’t able to see ski earlier this afternoon.

Delta Roofa Palooza – Wakeboard Party

A few weeks ago, a bunch of friends and I went out on Lake Austin to party, wakeboard, camp out and have a good time. Blake Rabe and I (among a couple others) brought our guns and ammunition – his Canon 7D, my Canon T2i, and two of our GoPros. We not only filmed the wakeboard sessions, but the overall experience as well – everyone that was there created a positive atmosphere that showed well in the footage.

Blake and I decided to share all the footage obtained and create our own edits – we were curious to see how our editing styles differed and the control was the same video resources. Here is the edit I came up with:

And the Blake Rabe edit is found here:

Thanks to everyone that came out and made the experience one to remember. We’ll do it again next year.
