Have decided to borrow a friends roof-rack and attach it to that, get a better vantage point and should be able to hold it a bit more securely since the camera isnt mine!
It records to an SD card max 2GB. does 1 hr on the highest res but seeing as i have to compress it anyway im gunna decrease the res and hopefully get more footage.
then edit it and add some music.
Any suggestions as to what would be the best music?
I was thinking the self preservation society? the theme from the original italian job could be fun.
any others?
I really want to make it something that everyone could enjoy so it would be better if i had some ideas of what kinda music, ill only end up choosing some rubbish :P !

These spring to mind

Next year I'm looking at doing a webcam, 2 second updates or something on a 3g connection, how cool would that be?

why not use some music without lyics. A lot of skate videos use this, kinda hiphop but dubstyle.

Are you going to place the video to distribute to DVD?

Or upload it to the Internet?

Thats good, using the roofrack means you could probably see the bonnet of your car as well.
I dont think the italian job theme would go well, maybe when arriving into brighton, but not all the way down lol!

Hope to go past your mini on the way lol, or i could stay in front of you the whole time - but i wouldnt do that

Oh Dear, Unfortunately after 7 miles (just past the Tesco, before the AA service stop) we broke down! Called Green Flag who i am with and they did nothing so took it to the AA people and joined the queue! By the time the car was drivable again we missed te convoy and had to make our own way there with the help of TomTom!
I haven't had a chance to look at the footage yet but i will edit what i have and see what we get!
Again, it is a great shame but these things happen!

yeaaa really cool! smooth & looks rad, only problem is the noise! no way you can filter the audio, or put something over the microphone to make it less full on.
