DVK is legit, been learning from him since the days of Adams Forums. Dude answered so many questions I had and helped all of us learn so much! THANK YOU DYLAN!!!
Thanks! That was something I was reeeaaally passionate about incorporating into the show to make it feel more like, you know, a SHOW! Plus I’d been watching a lot of Winning Time and Succession over the last year or two and wanted to create an intro and an outro with that sort of vibe. Between the music & editing I pieced together along with Glyn’s motion graphics for the blue line and credits you see, we were able to conjure up something retro and fun!
Thank you Ron! I really wanted people to feel like it truly was a *show* and a unique intro/outro with a particular “vibe” was something I wanted to bring to the table. Between my editing of music and clips and Glyn’s work on the motion graphic line and text that go over them I think we nailed it! As for the “live” factor- this wasn’t a livestream so don’t feel bad. All “Main Shows” will be prerecorded now, I just wanted this one to be a RU-vid premiere to get people engaged with the first one in the chat. People who want livestreams can always tune into our weekly q&a’s, but the main show is all produced now to really make it feel more special.
You guys should interview Adam . His story from the beginning how he started is an amazing story . Another great story is how Adam started wiping down cars at Barrett Jackson auction
