lightout 0 #1 August 7, 2011 Hey guys and girls, I'm building a personal portfolio website and need a kick-ass skydiving video (and I don't feel like paying $50 for one on iStock). I've only been skydiving a few times and I'm kicking myself now for not paying for video. Eventually, I'm hoping to replace it with my own. I'll give you credit in the video as well. If anyone could help out, I would appreciate it a lot. Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lightout 0 #4 August 7, 2011 My name is Nick and I'm a web designer. I live in Raleigh, NC. The website is to showcase my designs. The video will be used in a flash intro where the background cracks and breaks apart with the video playing underneath. Featuring music by Pretty Lights. I can also provide the finished video which would be cool for any collection. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightout 0 #5 August 7, 2011 Like I said, I've been skydiving 3 times. I'm not sure how many times one has to go to be qualified as a "skydiver", but I'm certainly not trying to impress someone with that. I'm trying to impress them with my flash development skills by utilizing a video. Never expected such animosity here... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 4 #7 August 7, 2011 QuoteNever expected such animosity here... It's not animosity. It's quid pro quo, or rather lack thereof. You're asking for something for free and offering "credit" which doesn't exactly cover the cost of what somebody else did to get their video you want for free. See the problem? You may, in fact, get somebody to give you a "a kick-ass skydiving video" for free on your web site. Then again, most people who make "kick-ass skydiving videos" spent a lot of their own time, money and energy to make it and they do it for money.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
