Blasting Downtown

Massan for Leader Bikes from Brandon Finks Video/Animation on Vimeo.

Fuck me sideways.  The first 90 seconds felt like an SF version of the X-Men mountain bike messenger movie of the early 90s, but wait until you get to 1:30.  Bombing downtown without feet or brakes.  Crazy.

From the Vimeo description:

Project I worked on with Macaframa films for Leader Bike commercial featuring Massan Fluker. I was one of three editors on the project and created all of the motion graphics and title sequences (check out the animation at the very end of the video, it's pretty cool). This was another project with an insanely short deadline, all motion graphics work was created in one night. Produced in early 2010, camera work by Colin Arlen, Colby Elrick; edited By Colin Arlen, COlby Elrick and Brandon FInk, motion graphics/animation by Brandon Fink, music by Massan

Also, if you haven't seen the X-Men doc yet, check out this clip.  The movie is screened every year in Boston but I have no idea where you can find it in SF.  Sorryboutit:
