I Wanna Make A Funny Video, I Can Has Help?

[hamiltonau]

hi Guys, i know this should probably be in the wasteland and might put it there too but then again the endeavor is going to be local as i cant afford to jet around the country for it.

So.... reaching out to Sydney bods!

basically near the end of a thread in the events pages about the video night we have some fun coming up with ideas for a road rage prank. it fizzled out after a few days but the seed had been planted and on this lazy friday afternoon i couldnt help going as far as starting another thread about it.

The possibilities are endless but ultimately just one short clip the might get watched a few hundred times for the lolz on youtube would make me happy and im sure be fun for anyone involved.

main idea was to have one car pull up behind another at a crowded intersection with both drivers acting up in a typical road ragey way. suddenly out jumps some crazy characters and its on for young and old until just before the green when everyone jumps back in their cars and take off like nothing happened.

i know, not too creative but we're keeping it simple for now.

the fun stuff is in the costumes, we had suggestions ranging from superhero's to starwars characters, ninjas to pirates.

this are some examples that inspired me

oh but we gotta make sure this doesnt happen

'it wouldnt allow me to post another media file so just utube 'road rage prank gone bad'

suggest someone stands off to side with a whistle to blow as soon as lights in other direction go orange.

I'm in... buy only if we do it in the middle of George Street on a busy day haha and hold up traffic for a little while for more funny

[bored33]

Bunch of ninjas coming out for road rage would be hilarious

[hamiltonau]

Stagea with tinted rear windows would be idea for hiding about 20 ninjas, very easy to make the costumes too.

ideally i want those giant dog suits or the like but i looked around and they are like 400 $ to buy. still not got a quote from a hire place so still gotta check that out. anyone know of a connect?

as for George st, liverpool st that would be the best spot. about 3-4pm to maximise stupid amount of traffic.

only problem is with holding up traffic properly is u could get in trouble with the law..and funnier if it suddenly stops for now apparent reason with everyone just acting like its all good.

i think..

If it's next week I'll be in

[hamiltonau]

why only next week?

not the week after? not put a time frame to this yet, just sounding out support, so far from this thread i count 3 bods, i could film but just as happy to sweat it out in a ninja suit.

might be the easiest one to pull off first.

need at least a dozen or so more volunteers though, plus who will the ninjas be 'versing' ? a car full of bogans who get a surprise or something equally as theatric as ninjas.? hmmm

[r32-25t]

Cause I have next week off work and every other week I will be working unless you do it on a weekend

[hamiltonau]

oh ok, thanks for the heads up. i will be shocked if i get enough participants by then, thinking about going to fbook with it to see if that drums up a little more support.

as long as we do it on the north shore

i don't want to get shot lol

[r32-25t]

Probably more likely to get shot on the north shore

[Liz]

*golf clap*

[Yo-Yo]

if you do this during the week & it's actually shot in the CBD I should be able to sneak out of work

one of my mates & people he knows uni were going to try one of those videos where everyone starts to randomly sing a musical in a public place but it never amounted to anything due to them being lazy uni students I guess

What would be better is if instead at the point where someone starts to sing, before anyone else joins in that person gets crash tackled to the ground, I'd vote for that

[hamiltonau]

lol, go the crash tackling of the impromptu singer. cant imagine anything worse.

only time it was funny/worth sitting through was the time the Chaser did it, serenading random girls around Sydney uni with full on acapella and roses..

can u get hold of these lazy uni peeps? do they have a facebook group or similar for flashmobs?

oh and good chance of being shot at in bankstown but city and northshore would be fine. i still think liverpool and george for crowd shock or maybe even the carpark entrance of broadway. usually lots of people around there and easy enough to scatter from.

[Yo-Yo]

just people from unsw that my mate knows, they couldn't get their act together to do their own vid I wouldn't hold much hope them helping out for your one

CBD i can do during the week cause I work on castlereagh st, bankstown & northshore ain't in my vicinity

+ depends on the day & if I can sneak out of work at the time so u name a time & place & I'll see if I can help

[hamiltonau]

ok preciate it yoyo

problem is i also need to get my act together and find a dozen or so more people to make it as visually dynamic as it needs to be for even a mild eye brow raise from todays jaded utube viewer.

also was thinking one car full of RED ninjas, one full of BLACK

easy enough to get the blacks from a proper ninjitsu suppler etc reds will make do

at the moment its just finding enough people

tried fbook but no bites, need more friends....ideas?"

[bored33]

Use POF hahaha!

[MaTBoY]

possibly have the ninjas beat a bunmch of pirates in the 2nd cvar?

[hamiltonau]

yeah i like the ninja V pirate idea too.

the possiblities are endless, go with this one for now.

how can i has peeps!?

[Luke_GTS-T]

what about ninja turtles vs power rangers? hmmm endless possibilities

[Marsss]

Aren't school holidays over????
