I want to use my sony handycam HD that i bought last spring, I bought this with the intention of documenting the car scene in upstate NY, however it has sit in its case with the extra batterys i bought and i have yet to touch it… but i would really like to start getting use in and make a youtube to follow my video ventures with, car shows, cruises, drift, drag, and even autox!!! maybe even one on one with cars, my overall goal would be make a full length feture over a summer in 518 area lol, i will need some practice behind my cam, and people who want to be filmed, so if you have any request? i work for free and get paid in experience only:) help me with ideas please?

Alright well if someone wants to buy me a better camera i will gladly take it, but seeing as i worked hard to earn the money for that camera, and if it sucks at taking videos I wont take videos of you to make your car look bad… I really dont know what people expect for free videoing… This site is something else sometimes, If someone cant afford the nicest thing or there car is not what someone else likes they make a big deal about it? If you dont like my cam simply dont have me video you! Im new here and dont want to piss anyone off cause you all seem to be good people, but somethings here are pretty damn aggrivating…

i know, you’re probably a little edgy because of my comment about your tailights in the other thread, maybe not.

Let it all out, scream, cry, hit something soft etc. You’ll be okay and realize this is just a forum and 90% of the time its just sarcasm and jokes. No one is out to get you, esp me lol
