nice production, thanx for sharing
Truthfully, I had nothing to do with this video, other than driving and doing what I was told. Everything else was done by John.

That's what I was thinking. Haha.

Amazing Car + Amazing Work = Amazingness!
Thank you for the kind words, fellas. I really didn't do anything. It was ALL John.

I have! I just never got around to it because of the curvature of our tail lights...it may make it a bit difficult for the tints to stick onto.

I think I speak for us all when I say we absolutely LOVE the sounds of the C63.

Ooops, Haha. I thought you were referring to me taking my car to a pro to do the filming. Then, I realized you were talking about the tinting of the tail lights. LOL. DUH! I get the hammer for that one.

Yup. But the videographer got paid in the amount of quality time spent on a gorgeous sunny day. Haha.

Also, he was referring to my tail lights getting tinted, man. NOT the filming. I'm sure pro's charge much more than $50 for filming.

What was used to edit that film? Looks like the person who did it had some schooling or training in that field?

Awesome vid.

99% of the time someone posts a link like that, it comes with a video blaring terrible music, a guy driving like an asshat, and a car that isn't done very well.

That was the other 1%. You and your friends have skills.

Thanks! I'll let John answer that question in regards to the editing software.

Haha. I'd like to think it was mostly my friend and not very much myself. Thank you for the kind words!

Thanks, Shawn! I would say it's 50-50 effort. Without your dedication, your great taste in mods and of course your awesome car, this video would not have been possible. I am grateful for how you made yourself available after a long day of work and got up early on a Sunday just for the shoot...not to mention how much driving you had to do considering the distance between where you live & the actual shooting locations (and being in the traffic and all). THANK YOU, SHAWN!

Merc 63 - As far as editing software - Adobe After Effect & Premiere Pro CS5. I pretty much taught myself about video after I bought the 7D 9 months ago. Been using my friends to practice..and Shawn is one of these wonderful friends.

Muskoka - Thank you for your kind words and you're very observant, sir. We tried to be as safe to public as possible...although we wish we could film this on a track... Also if you look closely, Shawn really dressed up all professional, too... nice yellow long-sleeve shirts... I think THAT really sets it apart from the rest of the car videos where they have guys in t-shirts... In addition, Shawn really tried to set a great example of 'two hands on the wheel'......although he does his 8-and-4 instead of 10-and-2... LOL!!!

Thanks again, Shawn and everyone!
