In the last edition of Phoenix Asshole Drivers, I explained why I use music in the videos.
This time around, I decided to experiment:
There is no music.
None. Not even on my car stereo.
Why?
Because balancing the audio levels, and clarity, of in-car dialog versus lyric-heavy tunes is difficult. I have to select and time dashcam bits to fit instrumental breaks. 🎶
Also, I am essentially forced to constrict my Phoenix Asshole Driver videos to the only those Phoenix Traffic Stress Disorder-causing incidents I can cram into a four minute video (five, if I use teaser and trailer segments). 🎞
Shorter videos help maintain “pressure” in my production pipeline, but by the middle of April I already had three videos in the can, and over 15 minutes of raw PTSD waiting for assembly. That means that by the beginning of May I could have produced biweekly videos through the middle of July. 😳
My primary thing is hiking videos — many of my dashcam captures are going to or from hikes — and I didn’t want to overwhelm that by going to a weekly schedule of Phoenix Asshole Drivers. Ugh.
So, I figured I should produce a long-form, no music, Phoenix Asshole Drivers. Let me know how you think it goes. 🤔
