Definitely the vibes of the two videos are completely different, mostly due to the camera and song choices, but tilt 2's was not that much worse. Some riders (especially monky) are more suited to being filmed with a vx, but some of them I thought benefitted from the camera choice (Dylan, Jon, and Jordan). As for the song choices, you can't really blame Dylan for that, because the riders got to pick their own songs. Either way, the songs weren't that bad at all. The only one's I can think of that sound generic were Isaac's, Jona's, and Tom's, and those songs weren't even that bad. I do agree though that Josh and Tyler made Tilt 1 a lot better. Ralph and Erik will definitely be similarly missed in the next one. As for what you said about the filming, I can't really see much of a difference in the two videos.
Thought I'd give some input.
It's a little hard to compare the two, for a couple reasons. Obviously format switching from SD to HD completely changes the vibe (or is supposed to). Tilt 1 was a homiecam VX video. Tilt 2 was a homiecam video pretending to be a high production HD video. Scootering isn't at the point where we can have one filmer film the majority of the video to keep things consistent, which sucks. So the filming on each IMO was pretty much the same, save for B-Roll that was virtually nonexistent in Tilt 1.
The other difference was that for Tilt 1, none of the team saw ANY of the video until the premiere. Conor edited everything and we had no input on our sections (and yeah I did not choose my song!). Tilt 2 we were able to work with Dylan to make adjustments in our parts. I had like 7 or 8 drafts, going through a few songs until I found one that both Dylan and I were hyped on. Dylan in general does tend to pick the "safe" song choices, which is strange because he used to kill it with song choices. Also Tom's song is Tilt 2 was tight af and if you think otherwise you're dumb and I hate you. It just fits him so well.
For sure it sucked not having Josh and Tyler, and will suck without Ralph and Erik now. But everyone still on the team is rad so anything we do should be cool.
There was some talk on if we get paid or not...we get a small amount monthly, compared to what the envy/phoenix/grit/etc guys get. We also do get a payout for each production run of signature parts. Nowhere near close enough to live off, though. However, this year is going to be a lot different for Tilt so we'll see what happens.
ps buy my sig wheel it should be out in spring?? it makes u have godlike balance and swag
