INITIAL D RX7 MOUNTAIN RUN | LIVE ACTION

Follow me on Instagram: roninprojek...

[@RoninProjekts]

Fun fact: This particular FD is extra special not just because of the likeness of Keisuke’s RX7 from Initial D but because it was actually fully built by the man who designed the very car for the anime. It’s a 1:1 recreation using only authentic parts from the anime fully built by Amemiya himself 😈

[@AustinTheAmerican]

That is so awesome 😂 I'm jealous

[@lncstr01]

You forgot your premix lol

[@RoninProjekts]

@@lncstr01 I genuinely have zero clue what you’re saying

[@pierceswan87]

@@RoninProjektssome rotary guys think that premixing oil into the gasoline helps lubrication and performance. This is just a myth, the wankle rotary has oil inlets next to the E shaft that make premixing redundant. However my SA FB still requires regular oil refills if I drive it a lot so I see where they are coming from :/

[@RoninProjekts]

@@pierceswan87 thank you for the clarification! I was initially thinking he was talking about my sound design audio mix lmao I’m not entirely sure what the owner of this rx7 does but I know the car came fully fueled before filming so the gas station scene in the video isn’t actually “real.” If you notice he never actually pulls on the lever to release any gas. I visually hide the pump clicking with a crash zoom and sound designed the fuel pumping and clicking to give the illusion it was a real fuel stop. So if it did need a premix it more than likely already had one. Considering Evan (owner) is a genuine enthusiast he definitely would’ve taken care of that prior to filming so no Dorito chips were harmed in the making of this film :)

REMINDER to pre mix your fuel before driving anywhere, its a 13b afterall, pre mix is gasonline and rotary oil mixed in the gas tank as clarification

[@RoninProjekts]

Car had a full tank before shooting.The intro scene was just for show and I sound designed the sound of gas flowing and pump clicking for the sake of the video. No rotary’s were harmed in the making :)

[@CrustStarGaming]

@@RoninProjekts thats amazing to hear, also, i have a ultra wide monitor, so the whole video was a perfect fit with the perfect music with the perfect EVERYTHING, you honestly killed it and this is the type of cinematic videos i have in mind to make i just dont have the crew/equipment to take rollers like that

[@Bojangthe4th]

Honestly, I would let certain shots linger a little longer. You're not trying to hide anything in the cuts. Bouncing around does add a bit of dynamism and engagement and attention grabbing, but when you've gone through the effort and bankroll to bring Keisuke's FD into our reality, bask in it a bit more. Savor the cool thing you did. That's my feeling anyway. I'm so totally in love with rotaries though that seeing this has inspired me to go down to the garage and spend some time with my FD.

[@RoninProjekts]

I get it but my filmmaking approach is to come from a more immersive/driving perspective. I want you, the viewer, to feel like you’re the one banging the gears and tearing up the road. I’ve driven a lot of cars and I’ve driven a lot of cars fast and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen a video from inside or outside the car and I’m left so disappointed because it just never feels the same way when you watch it back. So my approach is to try and give that feeling to the audience because when I drive I’m in my head feeling like a movie star turning the wheel and gripping the road so i want you to feel the same way I feel when these cars are being driven spiritedly. I could incorporate more moments of reflection but if it isn’t organic to the narrative I’m trying to create I don’t wanna include it just to include it.

[@Omgwatan00b]

This is great! Keep up the great RX7 content!

Haha I feel that but I have a very limited time to film and get the necessary shots to keep the video fun and exciting. Could the video be longer? Sure, but in my opinion I don’t think I could really pace out something that doesn’t feel like it’s dragging in certain parts with the amount of footage I had. Something I would love to work in into the future but that would require more time and a bigger budget. Definitely the goal for the future!
