After a bit of a weather failure on the day we filmed James May revealing his new car, we regrouped and had another go at filming his first drive in it. Check out my DriveTribe profile: bit.ly/3e66Dec And my Instagram: bit.ly/LBinstaDT
The relationship you and James have is like that of a single, childless uncle and the slightly outcast niece who's parents don't get her passions but the uncle does and it works really well
@@nvtschip I thought I was the only one who noticed this. I actually first noticed this months ago in one of his Foodtribe videos from the bunker kitchen. I'm not a doctor, so it may be nothing at all, but still I'm a bit concerned.
What I like about how DriveTribe is developing is that Lucy, Mike et al are gaining confidence and their personalities are starting to shine through. Drive Tribe is fast losing its fawning fandom of the 3 old guys and that's a wonderful thing. The technical quality is also improving and all this is a good sign of things to come.
I agree, it's awesome! The trio are legends, always will be. And they'll still be the main attraction, but like you said, seeing the others start to shine is awesome. Someone has to pick up the mantle eventually, and I think they'll do a great job in future!
@@ajolillen True. But unfortunately there are still a lot of people who complain directly if James, Jeremy or Richard don't appear in a video. But I think the whole team is doing a great job.
@Sandy LK Actually that is exactly what I said. When Drive Tribe started, there was a lot of fawning over the 3 but it has started to grow beyond that and all the better for it.
Amen. I like the big budget TV magic shenanigans with editing and music that you'd need to pay license for. But the behind the scenes is something else. Love how chilled out it is. And I love watching the tech. Not just the car itself as a machine. But the fact that it only takes six people and there's drones and types of cameras and microphones and copyright free music that works well and isn't boring. Back in the day, there'd be 30 people milling about, you'd need to shut down a segment of the road, you'd need tracking cars and cranes and jibs and the behind the scenes would be full of chaos and noise. Now you've got ambient environment noises, no meed to scream so the mics can pick up the words. I can go on and on. Its awesome.
There seems to be really great chemistry between James and Lucy, that kneeling down thing shows some of it! Great stuff here, trying to learn something myself while watching the pro do it.
The entire time I watched the video you shot, I appreciated the drone work, and the camera work. It was so refreshing to see this video explaining it all. So many folks just take things they view at face value and don't appreciate all that goes into the production. Thank you for sharing your efforts with us.
I really enjoy the back scenes and B rolls more than the post edited videos as it is. Mr May seems a lot more relaxed and just speaks his mind and that's gold in itself. Also the backdrop music selection by Lucy is immensely apt for the video footage put up. Looking forward to more of this clips.
lovely little video Lucy, your looking more relaxed every time, any chance of spoiling us with a couple of extra smiles, you look so good when u smile.
I’ve come across you channel Lucy, through DriveTribe and I absolutely love you’re style of vlogging. I’m going through some of you’re previous ones and I can really see the progression in confidence. Plus the chemistry between you and James is amazing and wholesome. 🙏🏻
I commented the same on the main video, but it was just really nice to watch. The scenic shots were fantastic, and that poppy/linseed field is stunning, really great job. On a related note, if you’re interested, I recently started using the “PictureThis” app to identify flowers and it’s really good. In fact, it was a linseed field I used it in first - I had no idea this is what it would turn out like so I’m going back this evening to see how it is now!
Always enjoy these behind the scenes look. Gives some people a small glimpse of what's involved to bring us what is essentially a 10min car review. Took basically all day! Keep them coming Lucy!
Nicely produced video, thanks Lucy/James /Mike and others, very enjoyable with lovely scenery and an ending with insightful comments from James, well done!
Absolutely love your channel Lucy, my current favourite. I spend 12 hours a day behind the wheel, and then more time trying to cook decent food!! Drivetribe and Foodtribe feel like the best thing on RU-vid for me, educational, relaxing, entertaining, and just the right level of funny and a bit daft and silly!! Its great to see your confidence in front of the camera grow too. I couldn't do it, but your delivery is very understated, and totally right for what you're doing. Just great stuff. thanks to you, and the team for hours of fun and laughs.
These videos are actually better than the "real" ones. Honestly, most of the fanbase cares much more about the trio than we care about any specific new car, like this Hyundai or whatever. It's a lot more interesting to see James acting like a normal person taking a photo of a flowery field than it is watching him talk professionally about a car we don't care about. We've been saying for at least a decade now that we want more of their real personalities, not the scripted ones. This even translates into a weird paradoxical feeling that you're becoming more interesting than James as you make videos about something we care about (James) while he makes videos about boring stuff. If that makes any sense...
Can't think how many times I've filmed on those roads for cars and M/Cs, but I have to say you've found ways to shoot them that I haven't so congrats! Kind regards John
Loved the drone shots, LOL I watched the actual Drivetribe video first this time. Would have been good to have a look at the car's fuel cell 'engine' - never seen one before.
I really wish RU-vid created an option to use different length of edits for videos. So you can can select the video from e.g drive tribe and watch the extended version which already includes more shots. Kinda like a directors cut.
