    Video Rant =)

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMiRE7ya0kQ&fmt=18

    No flashy moves so be warned just me running my mouth LOL
    basically a rant caught on film and i chopped it up to practice my production skills [ im self teaching how to edit an produce the music and mix and time it with the text ]

    just practice for the upcoming website and vidz i got in the works

    so figure this might be entertaining for about a second =0)

    it was inspried by most of the nonsense i read online and the Ego filled thinking that seems to be a driving force these days ....remember i warned you its a rant !

    More importantly perhaps i might touch on some topics for a healthy discussion I purposely tried to stay away from style and linage and sifu-itus LOL

    have a great day and train hard but have fun

    Sweet job for self proclaimed novice E. Im a prof Editor so i know what im on about .

    Not sure what gear your using but if you want to improve timing ect with gfx and sound tracks do a help search using the keyword 'keyframes' may help you out a bit.

    If your software is any good you can enable an 'Audio Waveform' function which illistrates the peaks and troughs of any music track which you can sync up with you gfx using the keyframes i mentioned..... its a little more refined than using your eyes and ears for timing etc

    Anyway good job and goodluck with it all bruv.

    Word of advice - put your camera on the fastest shutter speed or you may need to slow those punches down to catch them on screen lol

    More than happy to help with whatever mate, some projects can do your head in so its good to bang ideas around etc specially when it comes to editing it all together.

    In my spare time ive been drafting an idea for a NZ martial art doco focusing on how things got down here from thier country of origins and even have plans on showcasing our indiginous maori peoples own martial arts.... they have h2h and weapons approaches unique to thier culture....

    Its one hell of an effort, but very fun.

    Nice one Ernie. I liked the line about surviving, not winning. The only problem with the clip is that you're not ranting enough - no foam flecked lips!

    LOL man I would sock some one before i got that worked up LOL

    as for the thinking '' Surviving not winning ''
    I find this to be a much more honest and adaptable mindset in the ''real'' world
    not the ''bling bling '' look at me and tell me im great bizzaro world people like to pretend they live in

    or the .. no way dude it's not real and hardcore unless you take it to the ring and film it LOL .. i would rather crack you in the head with a brick while were heading to the ring ...I will take the disqualification and let the other guy win

    Hey Ernie,

    Great Rant! I agree wholeheartedly...too much unrealistic expectations out there regarding Martial Arts training, and what it is good for. Just train hard, stay out of trouble and understand why you are training in your choosen art, while enjoying the process, cause if you don't enjoy it I highly doubt that you would be doing it

    James
