What is a good way to film a sponsor me skate video?

I am okay at skate boarding, and would like how to know how to film a good skate video. I would like to know what angles to film at, if I should be moving with the person thats skating, and additional information.|||If you're okay, it might be hard to get sponsored by some of the bigger companies. If you're as good as the pro's, then it won't matter how well edited your video is or if you use the most expensive set up out there. What the companies want to see is you skating. If you can blow them away with your tricks in a video that's all that matters.





I would recommend that rather than paying someone to film you or on buying expensive equipment, you get out there and market yourself. Go to the big comps, get to know people who run companies, maybe small ones to start...local skate shops, etc. Get yourself some exposure.





Just remember how huge the skateboarding industry is and try to imagine how many videos these guys get of kids every day. Make sure that your skating will stand out and speak for itself!





As for the angles, it all depends on what you are doing. It usually looks better when you are being followed, but the angles all depend on what you are skating. Again, the tricks should say it all.





Good luck!|||dude when your done making video, send it to the main skateboard distributors. this site has all the contact info for the major brands http://skateboarddistributors.blogspot.com/
