Title: Right Now - Xtramus.
Post by: Xtramus on August 11, 2007, 12:27:33 PM
Right Now
A VC/LC Parkour Video

Yes, another one of my parkour videos.

This one includes more combo's than the previous three I made (Ascendancy and the Reverses), and unlike any other parkour video I've made in the past this isn't made in 24 hours.

Although some people may think this isn't all that hard, they'd be surprised about several things if they'd try it; however, that is not the point I'm making with this video. I don't want to make a great video, with a lot of good stuff in it. I don't want to any award for best editing or whatever. I made this video for pure fun, and the process of it revolved around experimenting, mainly in terms of terrain, about finding spots that make you go "cool, I can do this here if I go that way".

I wanted to make a video that I watch and say "damn, that was fun to do." I don't feel the urge to read comments saying "OMG great vid", I feel the urge to read comments saying "great vid to watch". Stunting is too competitive right now, I feel people should focus on fun, not "fame".

You're so right mate.

That was a funny video to watch, a bit bored too, due to the music i think. I liked the last stunt.

Cool work mate .

Nice  You're really skilled at this stuff. I tried it once and could never get the timing right for the jumps. The Stuff near the film studio and the last one at the airport were propably my favourites =)

I remember doing the last one as a challenge Brulla posted a few months ago .  Great video, I've always loved the parkour/GBing side of Vice City, people should be exploring it more.

I like seeing VC parkour videos from you, atleast theres someone who isnt as lazy as I am.

Although there was the same old problems you've always had. The biggest one first, you hesitate way too much when you parkour. Its not appealing at all when a person is tapping forward and backwards and waiting to do the jump/next move. VC parkour can be very challenging when you step up and really get rid of all the hesitation. I like to parkour with confidence. I also like seeing it, but in your videos I don't see it.

Second problem is that you take the easy way, very often. You use grenades to skip challenging parts which would be a lot harder to do naturally. I actually counted the useless nades in this video, they were about 9. Thats pretty much for a video of this length  I especially were dissapointed to see the Film Studio route at (01:25). That route (actually the destination roof with the two small ramps) is possible to access without any nades, its hard though, its my hardest spot. I was also dissapointed to see couple of those old spots, some of which I showed you the clips of a year ago

And yeah I know, as you said in your post, you didnt do this do impress, you did it to entertain. And I respect that, I just had to get that off my chest. I also apologise if I came on too hard, I guess I'm a bit dissapointed that you get all the public attention as the "parkour creator" or the "parkour expert". But I can only blaim myself for not doing any videos back then, or these days.

Anyhow...atleast theres someone to put out these videos to entertain the people, I respect that.

Good watch. I'd like to see some more jumps focusing on precision and height rather than distance.

I didn't really like the vid, but that's only cause I don't like that way of stunting. It always come out a bit boring in videos. The last stunt was very cool though, great creativity.

I liked it a lot. That last stunt was awesome.

Also, credit for the last stunt idea goes to Brulla as it was one of his challenges.

I pointed that one out because a bunch of people mentioned that one specifically, and yes it contains some of your challenges and spots you sent me.

Though the challenges I don't think are worth mentioning really cause everybody could've included them, but with the BB gap I added another ledgeboost before it, and I honestly can't think of any other spot you sent me privately that I used.

Post by: Brulla on August 12, 2007, 08:50:28 AM
With the challenges you are right, they were the majority of the spots I'm talking about. But I have to say the little ledge boost addition to the one stunt wasn't very much  The other spot I noticed was the NP mall vertical ledge boost. But yeah, I shouldn't be that hard, considering its pretty hard for you not to do the spots I showed you back then, there arent that much parkour spots in VC.
Title: Right Now - Xtramus.
Post by: Xtramus on August 12, 2007, 09:01:56 AM
I don't think you ever showed me the NPM one lol. Maybe infested, but not me.

I got the idea of the twist around boost from your completion of that lightpole challenge (first stunt in Right Now), and saw that ledge and thought it'd make a nice stunt lol.

Also, sorry if I came over angry or anything, that was not my intention.

Post by: Brulla on August 12, 2007, 09:03:51 AM
Oh...its ok, I thought I showed you that. I first did it in January 2006, I just showed Ostits a clip of it which was done in April 2006  It was the first stunt with that method I created.

Post by: Torque on August 12, 2007, 11:31:37 AM
Haha the last set was sick dude! My personal favorite was that really long jump at 1:02.

Dling the Remains right now.

Edit: A boo and a yahh, another great video - my personal favorite was that "bump" off the chair set inside NPM.

Keep it up

Post by: CJD on August 12, 2007, 12:58:43 PM
Enjoyable sorta video to watch recognised some of the challenges all pulled off really well though.  
Title: Right Now - Xtramus.
Post by: Ostits on August 12, 2007, 02:25:59 PM
I guess it's cool... Don't really know what all these things with Brulla and stuff is, but if you've been doing spots that he's sent you and stuff, then I dunno. Still not pointing fingers or anything. As I said, I don't know the whole story so who am I to say.

That aside, the video was actually quite enjoyable, I like it when people do it THEIR way and doesn't give a crap, just wanting to entertain. Thats what stunting is about, to entertain people, and to entertain yourself. You entertained me, which is very entertainable. Entertaining is fun, as entertaining brings people into entertainment!

Stop saying entertaining!

SA GBing is so much easier due to the fact you can climb.
