O.K. Well i thought it would be better if this subject had it's own thread...
_______________________________________
NITRO BASHERS - The Movie
A few of us have decided to make a professional movie with our monster trucks doing extreme stuff from jumping to hill climbing..
We have gone through alot of the production costs, and now feel comfortable in doing this movie and making it a salable movie.
We will be keeping cost's to a minimal, as this is our first movie and we DONT want to take to many risks...
And if we end up making no money out of this - well we gave it our best shot, and had a great time doing this. :)
Just remember to enjoy yourselves!!, and don't take this to serious, yet keep it as a professional attempt at trying to make something we all love to enjoy and to watch on the screen....
Any profit made from this movie will go to everyone involved in a percentage of what you did to help out...
So if you have put ya own money into the project, you should be getting a larger share of any profits.
If you have helped out in equipment and time behind the scenes, you will be getting a larger share in the profits.
If any profit is made, some of it will go towards the new web site MONSTER BASHERS, which will be online any day now.
The money in the bashers site will be used to pay for the site and for prize give aways to members.
Stunt drivers who participate in the filming will be rewarded in some of the profits, in a way of gift vouchers from hobby stores or ebay..
So we will try to make this work and do it the right way, and to see if we can make any money in the NEW CRAZE OF REMOTE CONTROL NITRO TRUCK EXTREME BASHING, that is sweeping the world by storm....
And just remember we are doing this for fun, so make sure you keep enjoying yourselves on these bashdays please !!!
________________________________________
LISTED BELOW ARE THE BREAK DOWNS ON COSTS INVOLVED that we see so far :
1) Professional camera use - to be determined on a loan basis from slappy and the hourly rate of the use with it.
2) Your own camera work - Will be worked out as a larger player in helping make the movie, and a percentage worked out for your use of your own camera, and how much footage we use with your camera.
So make sure you have that camera ready with lens cap off :)
3) Cover and DVD artwork - again to be determined by slappy on a hourly rate.
4) Editing - Use of a editing studio and costs of using one to finalise the movie.
5) DVD Manufacturing - The cost to make the dvd from been professionally burnt to packaging with printed dvd.
6) Cover Art Work for dvd - the cost of that from the printers.
7) Copyright - No costs here if we use all are own footage. we can copyright this ourselves.
8) Music Royalties - We have decided the best way for this to keep costs down, is to use royalty free music and copyright free music. more to follow on this subject...
9) Classifcation - $700 for a 1 hour flim.
10) Sales and Marketing - i will be using my experience in this field to maximism the way we sell and market the product.
Some of these cost like classication/manufacturing will be the last cost's involved, and i will be looking at picking this up for a larger slice in the pie unless others want to pitch in :)
Wait to we see a sample of the movie after editing to determand what you think, and if you think we have a winning movie and a salable movie....
Please feel free to mention anything we have missed in all of the above, as all of us do work full time jobs ( well i hope so ), and we are doing this on the side outside of normal working hours.
Any ideas for the movie can be posted here for others to comment on.
Thanks for your time in reading all of this, and good luck to all of us getting involved.
And hopfully we will have a great movie to either watch with some mates and a beer, or something bigger in which monter truck fanatics from around the world will love..

So will this vid be based on the XXX MAIN content ,House jumping,big air, ect ect !devil
so can we submit our own footage?
Propane
09-02-2006, 11:59 PM
Yes ned, just keep ya footage in high quality dvd format..
And YES are video will be based on every other monster truck video that comes out in the market in the near future.. a EXTREME JUMPING VID.. No different than the 500 motorcross extreme videos and bmx/skate videos out there in the market today.
As for the xxx movie.. A good movie.. bit to much bling bling for me, and not enough large jumping in the vid.. half way thru the xxx vid it got a bit boring, watching the same old same old stuff of driving around in parks and on snow or mud..
And dont forget plenty of bling :)
We will be using alot of different methods tho.. We are not there to show bling trucks and driving around some flat surface park or curb jumping..
And we will be using the same theme that most extreme sports video use, Fast heavy music and some serious jumping !!! with a bit of comedy inbetween :)
A few people have said that are backyard vids are far more exciting than the 39 bucks they payed for the xxx vid..lol
One reason why so many decided let's give it a shot, and make something for our enjoyment and maybe others.. If we are going to destory our trucks every week as we do.. might as well make a professional vid of it :)
So from quarry hill climbing to alot of backflips to massive air to skate parks to bmx parks and straight out bashing is our aim... Half those trucks in xxx were to bling bling to jump
!lol
Unless your into small jumping vids !silly

Anyone can be in the vid m8 :) And yes this thing will take time.. and we are in no rush to finish it soon.. if it takes 4 weeks or if it takes 6 months who knows...
And all the footage will be stored on dvds as masters until we get to edit them..
And some new bash spots will be announced as when we need new locations for filming... i got a few new spots up my sleeve to show ya all :)
also we will keep posting new bashdays when we work out times to suit everyone :)

it'll prolly sell to rc entusiests as launching a remote controled car while ur standing comfortable on the ground isnt considered extreme.

BZZZ! Not in DVD Format. Stored on DVD in DV-AVI files, you will only get ~ 20minutes of footage on a DVD in this format but it is of the highest quality. (around 16m/bit a sec)
Storing in DVD Format will degrade the footage. Given that most DVD-R component recorders are set to around 3m/bit thats a BIG drop in quality.
As to the XXX Main videos - Don't judge them all by the XXX Monster_X you have watched, that DVD isn't as good as XXX Main 2

Cmon BB have you been sleeping at the last few bashes mate 'Slylux' goes twice as hard as any of them vids I just watched.....I have watched a few of them SMF vids now and there is only a couple of killer things like jumping cars and other than thet they are quite tame IMO. Unless I have radomly selected the tame videos. This one I just watched they run up down a track with tree roots on it WOOOO HOOO I'm excited!! Then they jumped cars that was the only good part(that part was really good)
Yes they do some sick stuff but not all of it is killer stunts....the other mob I ain't heard of them but I am looking now. I have seen people doing a lot sicker stuff on LST Central.
Just my $0.02
Alright BSC do some sick sick air thats a lot better! I will keep watching.

I have a barbie truck on the way. Will post pics when its all built. Also working on building a truck mount for a small mini dv camera. Something that sheilds the camera completely from mud so that we can use it as a chase camera to follow the trucks around at truck height. Also will demostrate the spped of these things. Id love to drive two trucks through a city mall with chase camera and get peoples reactions etc. Evil plans to be released at a later date.

I want to setup a picnic amongst the families in kingspark with a rug with food and cakes etc, then run a few trucks through and totally trash it. The look on peoples faces would be classic. I would have to get my friends to look suprised like they wernt expecting it. Hope I dont get cheese cake in my airfilter!

I have a better Idea for old Barbie how about a tug of war pulling her apart as Ken Screams his guts out Muwhahahaha now were talking. Even 4 trucks pulling different corners....maybe we need to superglue her together to give her a sporting chance LMAO!

THANKS for the quality tip BB.. Peeps using there own video TAKE NOTE OF BB's quality post above :)
I will check with ya tonight bb if ya fixed slappys ramp.. If not, i wouldn't mind grabbing it for the video and getting it fixed A.S.A.P..
I think we need some MORE kick arse ramps soon..
And the video might take forever to film, but most good videos do take time, and most only produce 1 per year..
Since this is a low budget film compared to xxx main, we should be able to push it through a bit quicker..
And been our first movie, it should set a bar on what we can do and produce.
All fun and games - and let the games begin :)
Speak to u later bb, got to rush out !!!

I think we should include some weird competitions like..
Longest distance travelled on the sides of ur wheels.
Best Wheel stand front/rear.
Smoothest landing.
Messiest Landing.
Best recovery of a messy situation.
Most damage(i'm not encourage you to damage your vehicles here).
Most daring stunt award(same condition as above).
I think it may also be good to include maybe a tuning guide at the very end of the video. Some handy hints for maintanance and repairs etc. Possibly include some recommended upgrades(bang for your buck, and most handy upgrade etc.).
Gotta go!

hey go hard or go home .. i not scared to break my truck ,, as long as its on footage ..
i reckon a tug-a-war footage would be cool .. esp if we could get a mini-t with a big wheelie bar ,, tow off some nitro monster ..
also need to get one to do burnout or something .. smoke the hell out of the tyres . or something .. ( conv 2wd if need be )
hey and also .. sex sells .. chicks in bikini's playing with of even better fixing some r/c ,, .
also truck vs real car drag .. we missed some good footage when i was tailgating slappy in his wrx .. then dragged me off .. , he won .. but it looked great ..
Hey i dont mind being and actor in this movie ..
best mate has a moto-x track in backyard .. there is some awsome MT do-able doubles

OOOoooh, nice backyard. It would definatley be good to get some footage there :)
Good point, sex does sell! On the cover of this DVD we need two hot birds each holding a monster truck.
Oh wait, CORRECTION .. hot birds, big hooters in bikini's, holding monster trucks! - YYYYYEEEAH!
i say do a speed run through a shopping centre. have it running, run in. drive through following it and then out again into a waiting car and leave.
we did that on our fast fiddys for a move were making. there was 5 of us and we each had american president masks on (i was nixon). we rode down the ramps off the trailer and just rode through the shopping centre...did a lap and roade out the door. the car did a lap of the shopping centre and was waiting out front for us. drove up on the ramp and we took off. quite well executed and looks great on film. we had a few guys stationed around the centre with cameras and also had one mounted on a bike.
anyway. how do i know what quality my camera is working at? im only using a 5.1mp sony digi cam so i dont know what bit rate its at.

10-02-2006, 05:38 PM
We should do some footage while following a car :)
Have someone sitting in the back of a ute drivin, another following the car and a couple of extra blokes filming in both cars.

Nice set up there marty at ya m8s home... Will definitly have to hit there on one of the days soon... just let us know which day will suit you and ya m8..
With the chicks and stuff... something i have been looking at... It might change the classification of the movie, and what rating they would give it i guess depends on how much tits and arse is showing.. but we need to keep it out of the (R) RATED classification, or it will be limited to what retail stores will sell it.. I.E. Big - w and so forth might not take it due to the rating of (R) , (MA) It should fall under if just chicks in g - strings...
We need to get this right - as if it comes back as (R) RATED from the classication board, we are stuck there.
Unless you pay another $700 and edit it and re submit it to the board..
Trust me, i use to watch pornos after been edited for my work ( and get payed for it !lmao ) to make sure they fell into the (R) rating, and not the (xxx) rating before they went to the classication board to get the (R) rating :)
AS for the script, I have made some notes of what everyone has sujested and will be putting up here the ideas and bashspots and so forth...
Will keep ya posted...
<span class='smallblacktext'>[ Edited Fri Feb 10 2006, 07:53PM ]</span>
hmm, how much skin constitutes are M rating. i guess that is just bikinis???

10-02-2006, 08:50 PM
I will have to find out from my work ned :)
should get a steady cam sort of thing - its like a camera on the end of a rod - so you can run along-side of the cars and film them. They use one in this movie a bit:

Information on filming
For now we will be just hitting different bash spots around perth each week filming...
We will keep making different days from sat. or sun. each week in a rotation of different
spots. So places like south guildford bmx track will be be hit a few times on a sat. and
then a sun on different weeks through out the filming...
This way if ya miss a day at a bash spot due to waiting on spare parts or a life outside
of r/c, we will be hitting that same bashspot again in say 8 - 10 weeks time. Also this
will help in making sure everyone gets to launch there trucks at these spots, and we get
it on film.
__________________________________________________ ______________________________________
FILMING :
Best bet on the filming is 2 trucks at a time go out and hit the jumps, while the rest of
us film. We should have a minimum of 2 cameras at each bashday, so we can get different
angles of the same truck jump. Cameras to be set up before trucks are ready and we all
decide which angles will work best on the jump....
If 1 of the 2 trucks are been repaired we will send out someone else to replace the
broken truck or trucks...
We need to keep this in a orderly fashion to make sure we don't have 10 trucks racing
around and one camera man...
Any changes to the above method will be done if we see any better ways in doing the
filming.
So remember to wait for the cameras are set to roll before busting the huge air, we don't
want to hear "did ya get that on film" when we are not ready. And then we didn't get it
on film while your sitting there with you truck cut in half from the massive air jump..
hehe
Action filming will be the priority for now... all comedy scenes will be left until the
end of the jumping scenes of filming...
That way we can just concentrate on one thing at a time, and not have these jumping and
then barbie doll filming and then jumping....
All footage to be stored and dated...this is essential to do if we are using different
camera angels of the same jump...
All film copies that are made give to slappy/nitro or me to hold onto.
NO FILM FOOTAGE TO BE SHOWN ON THE NET OF ANY OF THESE BASHDAYS PLEASE, OR IT LOSES IT'S
COPYRIGHT...
__________________________________________________ ______________________________________
Theme :
I have been thinking on the same lines as what marty said in another post.. I would like
to see chicks and truck jumps.. We will get back to the chicks later, as this is just
getting non copyright footage a girls and can be edited inbetween the jump scenes...i.e.
first song and jumping then a few flashes of chicks, and then more jumping all in the
same song... this will work for the first song and near the end of the movie..
I would like to see at the start of the first song each truck close up and name of owner,
and then footage of them doing different jumps.. Then move onto the next driver and so
forth..
Pit of death bash spot might be able to be used as it's own scene for a song, with the
killer name of the place and sheer fun in watching the trucks there...
The comedy side i was thinking it should be at the start of the film and then switching
back to the comedy scenes thru out the film.. ( inbetween certain songs )
I reckon the G I Joe theme will work well, Like at the start of the film we see G I Joe
going to hes truck.. and then driving of causing all sorts of havoc. *( like the barbie
kidnapping part ) and then roll into the first song and us jumping..
Then we can keep switching back to the comedy scenes after the first or 2nd song, and
have another scene of G I Joe doing some other crazy stuff... ( like slappy picnic kaos )
Also we will do voice overs for G I Joe and ken and barbie - anyone good at this put up
ya hand please :) and also sound effects of a v8 for the truck can be used..
I reckon we need a identity body shell for G I Joe.. I have a new truck body shell here
thats black with flames and jack dainels stickers on it that might be the look.. I will
post up a pic of the shell after this thread.... We want to have G I Joe's truck look
different to all OUR trucks bashing in the movie that we will be using !!!...
Spud run - will have to get someone else to explain this, as i haven't seen it..
something that might work well half way thru the movie..
Some other ideas like marty said with a mini losi and a nitro truck doing stuff we can
use G I Joe and some other star like a lego man or something that will go with a mini
losi...
Just take note we will get back to all these comedy and non jumping scenes in a few
months after we finished the jumping filming...
__________________________________________________ ____________________________________
Bashspots :
We will be rotating these from north to south of the river and hitting the same spots
twice or even 3 or 4 times until we have enough good footage at that location..
Bash spots listed so far are :
North of the river
Pit of Death - We have all seen it, its bad its mean its death for ya truck on
some killer drop of jumps. Also there is a massive pile of black
dirt in the middle of the pit, you can drive up there, and we will
have to launch someones truck of there as its over 100 foot down
drop... hehe I got some photos and it has a perfect run up :)
Guildford bmx track - Again we have been there and will have to hit there a few times
more...
wanneroo bmx track - we can get the key to this track.. only one massive run up to a
big ramp.. so still good...
Ellenbrooke area - Heaps of cleared land areas and so forth.. NitroLSt to keep
posting us pics to see whats on offer out there...
Carine open park - And carine high school - both have two huge and very steep grass
hills for air and distance jumping when ramps are set up... i will
get some photos when we hit those spots... WE ARE TALKING VERY BIG
DISTANCE JUMPS HERE !!!
Iluka/carrinbine way - Skate park - huge skate pool and some concert jumps - again photos
before we hit these spots will be posted. Rail grinding i hear you
can do here...
Nth wanneroo quarry - A little hidden secret that motorcross guys love... Will mention
more later about this spot...
South of the river
Coburn bmx track - We have been there once before - it's the spearwood/bibra lake bmx
track.. also it has some huge sand hills one block away we can
check out with a sand quarry that i dont think is fenced off..
Slyluxs mx track - As posted by marty on here the pics...
Bullcreek bmx track - I have photos of this sopt and will post them again when we hit
this spot..
We need a few more places south of the river - so if you live south please have ya camera
with ya and post some spots up here for us to see...
__________________________________________________ ______________________________________
Jumping :
Well you will have to really launch ya truck to make the movie, it's going to be costly
doing this... but hey !!! all for the cameras :) So don't expect to just do some little
jumps and think your gods gift to R/C Monster bashing and expect to make the film..
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !!!!
Hopefully it's just not slylux who makes the film.. !lmao
Also make sure you make the jump on all 4 wheels.. - As you don't want to be the *STAR*
in the crashes section of the movie, that section of the movie will show just crashes and
more crashes and some stylish crashes.... lol
__________________________________________________ _____________________________________
Jumps:
We have some portable distance jumps and that's it so far.. we will use these at
certain spots to boost bmx jumps, or use them for the carine idea of 50 foot distance
jumps while going down hill...
We need to make one massive ramp tho... I have a large trailer that can be use to move
this around.. All we need is some wood.. nitrolst's m8 can make it, unless your a
carpenter on here... so any thoughts on the wood ??? maybe we should get nitrolst to
speak to he's friend and work out what we need and see what the costs are involed..
This large ramp is a priority, as we need it for all the bash spots and need it now..
Also we can jump over cars and other stuff with it :)
The House jump
Well like i said before... it's been offered... who's going to be the star :)
__________________________________________________ ______________________________________
Trucks/Buggys :
Yes buggys are allowed mark... We need something a bit different and the way slylux
drives he's buggy, how could ya not ....lol
__________________________________________________ ______________________________________
Movie Name :
Since we are using buggies in the movie... i think it might need a name change from
MOSTER BASHERS to somethig else... we can all post up some movie names and have a vote
on this later... :)
__________________________________________________ ______________________________________
More to follow on other idea's for the movie, and your suggestions are more than welcome
here or anything you might think needs changing in the above idea's so far....

I know a professional steadicam operator, costs 500 a day plus camera hire and insurance, but he does use a $120,000 digi beta cam and full steadi cam rig. more for high def digital beta. Maybe on the next film...

sorry about big pic .. few post up .. also the part of chicks .. ther no reason why MA or PG cant show bikini 's im not suggesting a porno film .. or anything but just some model looking chicks show and apearance a few times .. eg what u see on cover of HOT 4's or ralph . fhm . etc .. id be a good idea to keep classifaction as broad as possible .. but m15+ would be fine
. also the mx track is in quite bad state atm .. overgrown and in need of repair .. land owner does sorta know about the plans and is keen to make it work .. he also owns a picco 26 powered revo ..

I don't think we will have any trouble with a (M) rating as the crusty of demons videos are (M)...
Just got to find some free non copyright chick vids for the movie.. anyone got a hot looking sister and some of her firends who would like to help us boys out :)
well it just so happens i have the perfect house to jump and also 3 3foot high ply half pipes, also my good mate has a portable mx kicker ramp.also what about every truck put paddles on and romp through lancelin.
blade954
11-02-2006, 09:24 AM
i was also going to suggest Lancealin paddle tyres are the go up there, Also there are some good "over the road jumps" i know of up at Mundering.. And some huge air jumps and i mean huge air jumps up there as well from my down hill mountain biking days......we could do the hloe bbq thing up there ........

sounds good propane.
about ramps and locations. i have a few mates in perth with fast fiddy compounds. 8-9 jumps and kickers in there backyards setup for fast 50's. ill see if we can get a day in there sometime cause theres alot of room and the jumps are well cared for and have ggreat lips.
the ramps, once again a mate in perth i can talk to. has a few wooden ramps for BMX and like and so ill talk to him.
Propane

Sounds good all... We do need that larger ramp on all the bashdays... something that will fit into my trailer and easy for all of us to carry... Also the ramp needs to be wide enough for the little trucks to have no problems with at full speed...
We will just have to work out who does the jumping of the home.. It would be good to see one of us doing something crazy and different to everyone else in the video..
I.E. = 1 housejumper here then 1 pit of death mountain jumper here and so forth...
Also we should leave these crazy jumps to maybe last on the filming to...
We have just got to make a list of who's doing which of the crazy jumps....
so far we have :
1) bazzs house jump
2) pit of death black hill jump
3) car jump
4) over the road jump
I want to do the black quarry jump :)
So we need at least one of these per driver.. any takers on the house and car jumps, or any idea's on what crazy suicide jump you would like to do ???

Well i have changed the heading of this thread from MONSTER BASHERS To NITRO BASHERS, as the name monster bashers is a american web site for real monster trucks and nitro r/c ones..
So NITRO BASHERS is the new name as we are doing the web site on this name..
nitrobashers.com
I have just registered the name nitrobashers.com, and i have just signed up the host..
We will keep ya posted as soon as we transfer the new web site been built over to nitrobashers.com...
Also this might be good with the name been nitro bashers, as we can include any nitro r/c who bashes from buggies and stadium trucks.. :)

What brand and heat do you guys use we should do a bulk order...??? I run os A5 and recon they are great....
Bratt01
13-02-2006, 08:59 PM
You guys have problems with engines, my truck is in two pieces :( after the weekend. Now worries though, farely cheap to fix. Propane - I realised that the "Super Duty" aluminium bulkheads is too strong for the rest of the car, thats why it rips from the body each time. Gonna get a aluminium skidplate, and revert back to the old nylon/plastic bulkheads. They can flex a bit under pressure and wont rip the screws out the chasses. That or I would have to go full aluminium on everything & a new chassis. (Works out to $399, so first option then)
i run OS 8's in the savy. sick of paying $8 a plug but buying over seas dosent turn out much cheaper.
im deffo able to come out for a bash saturday the 4th march and maybe even sunday morning 5th of march. im staying two shops away from PHC so either north or south of river is fine is fine.
Propane
13-02-2006, 10:00 PM
o8s here for most of us i think,,,,
Bratt01 i had the same problem when i used alloy shock towers - bent the bottom chassy plates and pulled screws... now back on plastic and all is holding up fine here :)
i use plastic bulk heads to... one has a small crack but there cheap so i always carry a few spares of them :)

I think i have a show stopper for the movie!!
How about an R/C getting caught by a multinova??
Would need a bit of set up with the cameras on a main road and a nitro able to do over 70 on road.
If we could get cooperation with police to get the picture, would be cool, and not just a radar gun pic.
