Trail Building and Cable Cams | MTB Behind the Scenes

[@MarkMatthewsMTB]

Such a wild day!! I can't wait to heal up and get more days like this.

[@ScottBell]

Yeah man, always fun to watch you hit something for the first time.

[@myvideoguy]

8:28 How sick is this shot. The time of day light angle and atmosphere, cam / cable timing and framing! And OF COURSE the rider skill n engineering!! Perseverance boys, yew!!! Plus the cool bonus tree wipe at the end to cut to another angle of the shot right.

[@ScottBell]

Thanks for watching! Glad you liked what we pulled off. Cheers!

[@Viddard]

Technology is a wonderful thing, Scott. You killed this!! The level of passion here is palpable!

[@ScottBell]

Thanks for watching Ed!

WOW ..WTH !!! What a stunning build out. Such dedication to the commitment of a great shot! Worth it. Total respect for you & all the team👍🏻💪🏼🎥 HOLD UP ... Mark’s 4 th attempt - the overshoot. UNBELIEVABLY HOT. What talent & skill. Thank God there were no injuries. He just stood up & thanked his lucky stars. That’s real passion worth an Oscar stuntman right there. BOOM💪🏼💪🏼🎥🎥👍🏻

[@ScottBell]

Mark is a wild man, the amount of work he put into this trail is incredible. Thanks for watching!

[@myvideoguy]

Haha 7:24 "that's way too melow"! I would've mud myself! Haha

[@RyandeMilliano]

Man! That cable cam shot at the end is incredible, great captures.

[@ScottBell]

Thanks dude! The cable cam was being a pain this time but once we got it dailled, ohhh myyyy :)

[@Levi_Allen]

This is so rad. Makes me wanna go dig. I love all the work on the rider and filmer side to pull this off, excited to see the full piece!

[@ScottBell]

Thanks for watching Levi! Stoked to film this project, the forest is so beautiful.

[@ScottSkywalker]

[@ScottBell]

Thanks for watching Scott!

[@jeremy76017]

Wow those shots are amazing ! Always a pleasure to see those bts videos. Can't wait for the whole thing !

[@ScottBell]

Thanks Jeremy. Hopefully we'll get out there to film it in a month or two.

[@bigshedstudios1893]

This is awesome guys! Im loving your channel Scott. thankyou.

[@ScottBell]

Thanks for watching, glad you are enjoying what I'm making!

[@bigshedstudios1893]

I’m trying to improve my MTB filming and editing skills and your channel has been an awesome resource and inspiration. Every time I get my camera out on a trail and video a rider I learn 1000 new things.

[@ScottBell]

@@bigshedstudios1893 that's awesome to hear. Your Tasmania video is dope! It's definitely always a learning process.

[@diesernameistvergeben]

[@MaciejSulima]

Man! Those videos are siiick! Keep doing it :D

[@ScottBell]

Thanks man, appreciate you dropping a comment!

[@alohamaaan]

cool! please, more ride shoot content

[@ScottBell]

Definitely more to come. Unfortunately the main rider I work with has broken his collar bone and I have badly sprained my ankle, so out of commission for a little while. Thanks for watching.

[@alohamaaan]

Scott Bell get well soon 💪🏻

Thanks!

[@valentinowolk1564]

yeeehhh nice video...💯🌲💚👊

[@ScottBell]

Thanks ✌

[@bongerrazo1]

Was camera pre focus on Mark while it was moving with the cable cam? Thanks

[@ScottBell]

Yup, I preset the focal distance based on the most important part of the cable cam (when he is hitting the jump) and hope the rest will be close enough to in focus that it will look good.

[@everywherelocal]

nice clip 👌

[@ScottBell]

Cheers, thanks for watchin'!

[@kylelesage6726]

Nice job, that cable cam shot is sick! What are you shooting with these days?

[@ScottBell]

Thanks Kyle! I'm shooting on a GH5.

[@kylelesage6726]

@@ScottBell Sweet man, great image. Love that cable cam shot. I think I will try to 3d print one and press some bearings into it, thanks for the inspiration!

[@ScottBell]

@@kylelesage6726 Thanks man! Let me know how your rig turns out if you put one together.

[@lukemallinson9766]

So good! Was just wondering why you were using the Insa360? Did you have it in the 360 mode or just the gopro style? What are your thoughts on the camera?

[@ScottBell]

Thanks Luke. Mark had an Insta360 sent to him to test so I wanted to give it a try. I hadn't worked with a 360 cam much before that day so was curious what kind of angles I might be able to get with it on the camera. The mounting wasn't really ideal it turns out. The quality in 360 mode is also pretty low, not to mention a REAL pain to work with. I think in the future I would use it in GoPro mode or just get a GoPro with a static angle locked in.

[@lukemallinson9766]

@@ScottBell yeah that sounds about right. I have one also and just haven't been able to get any decent quality out of it.

[@matthewblake123]

nice!! Whats the song used??

[@ScottBell]

Thanks. First song is Coyote by Wilsohn. Second song is FOLLOW ME Wild Horse by Cospe. Both licensed from Epidemic Sound.
