Default Corvette // It's a State of Mind [VIDEO!]

My Pacific Northwestern brethren, if any of you were at the track event at the Ridge last weekend and spoke to me, you'd know I was working on a Corvette video for no other reason than to try and convey the passion we all feel for our cars.

Well I only had a GoPro at the track, just like everyone else, so maybe you didn't know. In any case I shot some other stuff in my garage and at a particular point overlooking the Sound. I hope you dig.

Great video! You did all that with a GoPro? I just got one from Santa and am looking forward to using it.

I have a go Pro and I can't do that. You've got talent. Very nicely done. Nice meeting you briefly on Saturday at the Ridge.

Only the track footage was shot on a GoPro, everything else was a Canon C100 which sports a lovely Super 35mm image sensor - a GoPro can't achieve that kind of dept of field and shadow detail.
