jib bmx: tape number one

"jib is a project that focuses on creating footage of riders that are living and riding in the philadelphia/greater area. the first jib was filmed in standard definition and entirely in philadelphia/some surrounding areas nearby. the riders include nick bott, jonathan schimpf, pat schlitzer, chris fuzz ware, steve tassone, joe kirschenbaum, joby suender, and dan bob. (summer 2011). the last video from some members of this group was the least most feature back in february (https://leastmost.com/features/best-pizza-in-miami/" (that least most link is no longer active lol) --- i started playing with sd cameras for aesthetic purposes, as many in the bmx & skate communities do. for some reason i got distracted by the 16:9 aspect ratio that was turning into commonplace. i made the mistake of buying a japanese vx-1000 that allowed you to change your ar from 4:3 over to 16:9. after two tapes i called it quits, realizing that if you're going to shoot sd in an hd world, that it would be best to do it all the way and let the black pillarboxing automatically added to each side take care of things. shared for nostalgic reasons. --- originally uploaded on the old jib vimeo account: august 11, 2011 @ 12:48am the storage on the old vimeo account is currently fairly full: (184% of the 5gb limit, totaling 9.2gb) in january 2018, vimeo introduced a 5gb total storage cap for basic (free) accounts, replacing the previous weekly upload quota. existing users exceeding this limit were grandfathered in but could no longer upload new content without upgrading or removing videos. the jib account was grandfathered in, which preserved the old uploads but restricted further additions. to release the fifth and final tape i migrated to this yt channel. i happen to like it here.
