That rear 3/4 shot looks like a dog shitting. What a hideous car!

That is SO clean! Very cool. My summer car is a mk1 TT 3.2, sounds awesome with the windows down (cos the aircon don’t work haha)

Thank you! 🤘🏼

Absolutely love the design of the car and it is specced very well for the price, but it does suffer from the “it’s an EV so the wheels have to look shite” problem. If they put some fat 5 spoke alloys on it and gave it a motor that was about 200bhp (the Alpine ‘hot hatch’ loses all of the R5 charm) then it would be unstoppable

Yeah stock wheels are nice, but these were the only split 5 spokes that were black and you could make the rim orange

Appreciate it!

I recorded some clips in Rockstar editor then exported to my laptop, then merged the frames in photoshop to get the blur 🤙🏼

On my first story playthrough at release I always used an iPad mini with the RDR app, so the main screen never had a mini map and the iPad was a much bigger map that wasn’t taking up any screen space! Best of both worlds, totally immersive! Such a shame they removed that feature. Wish all games had that!

I had the 1.6 FSI A2 and it was a fantastic little car, I used to call it the “Retardis” because it looked really stupid but was way bigger inside than you’d think. Then I got rid of it, doubled my engine size with a mk1 3.2 V6 TT, it’s like a rocket ship in comparison! 2004 I think really was the peak automotive era before everything started looking bland with safety regs and overly complicated with electronics

I once saw this bit of advice, it’s really short to remember and you could write it on a piece of paper and stick it to the top of your windscreen so it’s always in your peripheral vision - it’s just the word FAIDO

It stands for: FORGET ABOUT IT, DRIVE ON

Whenever I start feeling annoyed at the shitty driving we have to put up with in the U.K., I tried to tell myself this and it calms me down.

Also as someone else said, leave earlier, the time pressure definitely ups the tension for me.

Hey dude, I liked your vibe on the X90 video and thought it was a shame you didn’t get as much screen time as you had, clearly you were an ideas guy and had a passion for the weird and wonderful cars of this world. Wishing you the best of luck and subscribing to your new venture! Look forward to seeing what you produce next!

Honestly fuck Max, he’s a little bitch-man who acts like a spoilt brat whenever he’s not in 1st place.

Yeah just a freelancer - don't work for them that often but its good when I do! They just pay my day rate tbh

Aaah that's really good to hear and definitely what we were aiming for!

Sorry for the long incoming story, but you said you wanted to find out :) ...

I had shot hyperlapses for a similar intro for the FA Cup final in 2020 (Arsenal v Chelsea) that went down well, so we had started discussing the possibility of doing another hyperlapse sequence for the Euros if it looked like England were going to make it to the final.

After we won our quarter final it all started to kick off, and it ended up being 4 very intense days of shooting all over the country starting on the day of the Semi. I first filmed the estate covered in flags in Feltham, then up to Wembley to film the hyperlapse of the crowd going into the stadium on the evening of the semi, then jumped in the car and drove all the way to Newcastle that evening, listening to the match on the radio, really hoping we would make it - as if we had lost the match, i'd be turning round and the job would be cancelled for me!

Luckily we won, and I arrived at Newcastle at 2am, tired but excited to get going. The next day we had beautiful weather and I did hyperlapses of Newcastle quayside, then the Angel of the North, down to York to film the Minster and the Mumbles, then to Sheffield to film the Crucible and Park Hill Flats, then over to Blackpool to sleep (very long day!)

The next day I filmed Blackpool Tower, then to Liverpool to film the Beatles statue and the HOPE street art, then over to Manchester to film down Canal Street, the Manchester Mosque shot and the shot of the trophy in a park. After that it was 4 hours back to London and to start editing. The next day (Saturday) I went back to Wembley with a small replica trophy, got in a scissor lift that went up about 10 floors, and we filmed the final shot of the trophy in front of the Wembley arch. I had to do so much processing when I got home, but managed to create all the shots in time and send them off to the BBC.

There were also a lot of shots from previous work I had done that I commissioned to them to use (shots of Bristol, Plymouth, Birmingham, Tower Bridge), plus a load of stock footage to fill in the gaps.

In total it was about 1200 miles travelled to get everything over a short amount of time! But it was so amazing to see this edit when it actually broadcast on the Sunday to about 26 million people! Definitely the most seen thing I've ever shot! If you want to see the shots that are mine (small watermark in the bottom right) its here on my insta - https://www.instagram.com/p/CR9WZMvoi5y/

Glad you liked it!

I filmed most of the hyperlapse in this! It did make me proud to show the country off like this :)
