Test of Intro to my Races, first 9 seconds only
Just the first 9 seconds of my intro that I am working on. Still needs a minor tweak, but I think it's a good start. I'll add about 20 to 30 seconds more content after this part. Let me know how you like it.

Not my cup of tea but I know the feeling of being limited when it comes to editing and producing video. Have to work with what you have.
Yeah, I was just playing around with the green screen ghost thing and wanted to see if I could make it work.
I will make an overview video of the track first when I am ready and then do races. I have some ideas on an intro that will be all race oriented.
Sounded vibraty (is that even a word? IDK is now). Also it doesn't need to be fancy. I recommend putting some track highlights set to music then @ the end a ghost with your voice over saying something like... "Welcome to WidowMaker Run"... In a scary voice with an evil laugh like... "HAHAHAAAAAA!!!!!".
Just my 4 cents$$$$
- Great...thanks! Yes, i want to keep my logo somewhat dark and sinister. The ghost is a woman crying, so basically I am showing a Widow because her husband just died on the track. So you have to think about it for a second, it's not just a meaning that's handed to you and in your face if you don't get it. Anyway, I will mix things up and add highlights, after I do some races, right now i just don't have any footage yet other than my current videos on youtube. it's taking me much longer than expected to finish all the tweaks of the track. I have to add sidewalls everywhere, and then wire in my traffic light and control panel, build camera mounts and determine camera locations. I will have 9 cameras. Eventually I will add lighting for night races and decorations/maybe scenery somehow. — WidowmakerRun
- That sounds like it’s gonna be a great track. Can’t wait to see where it goes — BlueLineRacing
2nd Attempt at an intro....I think this one is much better. ...Let me know your thoughts. Enjoy !
FYI..this is MUCH harder than it ever seemed to make a decent video. I spent 3 hours making this 9 second intro, just to get it as good as I can.
I'd rethink the first 6 seconds. My first reaction was "what the hell am I watching" If you're trying to grab new viewers, give them something that really catches their attention. I'd also scratch the computer text to speech voice and do the voice yourself or find someone to do it for you. You can hire a voice over artist on fiverr for $5-$10. Just my 3 cents.
