The Dungeon
August 20th, 2010 by matthew
Fortunately not the type of Dungeon you might see Alf Stewart lurking around, for the past 3 weeks i have spent hour after hour locked in this room punching out clip after clip, i have a new respect for all the guys making vids, the amount of time that goes into it is mental, but it seems to be addictive, it keeps you always coming up with new ideas, and new ways clips could work
.
Right now i would say the vid is about 60% done, I’ve had Dylan Lee over helping out, getting a second opinion which has been really good because you seem to fall into one way of thinking when your doing it alone
.
Also if you people out there want to leave a comment, throw out some ideas on anything from Music to what you want to see in the Video, drop a comment below

Lack just keep on doing what your doing mate. Im sure your cleaning up with footage from the big names and it’s coming together nicely…just dont listen to all the hecklers trying to rush the release….just make sure your stoked with the end result and im sure its going to be epic!
Keep it up!
Matt.
My two ideas for the movie are:
1. a DK barool roll….
2. A dk grom… must be 18>
cant wait for the project… so amped
Matt,
Here’s a few suggestions for music. No hip hop, just rock. I have it set as band name, song name, and time of song so you might see if it will work for the video clip.
Really check out the first band, I think you really enjoy it and all of these bands can be found on Itunes and other sources.
Coliseum/ Blind in One Eye/ 3:18
Coliseum/ Lost in Groningen/ 3:18
Sleepytime Trio/ Not Without My(Swimmies)/ 3:35
1.6 Band/ Back in Church/ 2:59
Music, i kno u dont like Hip Hop, but it appeals to the youth now a days which is the future of our sport especially hear in the States… it can just be one or two sections which has everyone one in it because obviously Roachs, Dylan, and your sections going be balls to the wall metal which is fittting to ur guys personality.
WipeOut section
Air section just to show that dk is progressive and going to new places
Barrel section to some reggae would be KILLAs to watch
i just wanna know if you’re still gonna use that crow?…..
Yeh fellas love all the input…
Mitch – Amped on your love for the knee, so your down in sydney now?…next time im down that way ill let you know hopefully get some waves, as for filming, mate get shooting, its the best way to continually improve and tone your style, me and dylan always take turns shooting each other, so grab a friend and put him to work!!
.
Chabbott, yeh im amped on how everything is coming together, oh and dont worry, people wanted this thing out last year, so im taking my time on it!!
.
Jeremy – hows that board going??….really keen to have a grom nailing footage for the vid, just havnt got to much right now, i think Liam Okeefe from west oz has a few clips, i want this vid to inspire all the groms to get out there and push themselves and there dk
.
Winston – ill have a look at those songs! thanks for taking the time to comment them through, ill let you know what i think.
.
Victorian – my aim is not to fit the vid only of metal, ive got some really good mellow songs which fit perfect with nice slow motion barrels ect, its a good change of pace, the reggae idea sounds cool, plus the wipeout section is a guarantee, as for the hip hop, ive got some good footage of the Hawaiian guys which i know are into there hip hop, so that could come together there.
.
Alex – ive actually planned my day to hang around a trash can hunting crows!!!…ill let you know how i go?…you shaved that chest yet?
yeah Matt,
Good luck with the editing.
Definitely amped about the prospect of a new dk movie coming out soon!
Completed aerial maneuvers and big waves are ideally what i’d like to see.
Really interested to see fresh footage of Raffi and Roach, and to check where dk’s at in oz too!
All the best!
haha fuck Mitch sorry man i didnt read your post the first time…didnt know you moved to Sydney…good luck with it all bud.
Chad
Cheers Matt for replying. Yeah would be sick to have a surf with you. Just shoot me an email when you are down here or just sen me one with your email so I can hit you up next time on the goldy.
Can’t wait for the vid dude.
Hey chad yeah man I’m over east now. But when I’m back in Perth I’ll contact you for sure to surf and shoot.
Just Hurry the FUCK UP! no seriously no more circle jerks i want to watch this fucking movie now..
(song- Gorrilla biscuits- new direction or even the raised fist cover)…
Keep it loud and fast for the tail throwing sections!!

Lackey! We’re all really anxious for this project to come full circle… but having friends who edit for a living, I know it takes a lot of time for things to be perfect.
Here are a few music suggestions:
“Living Saints” by Polar bear Club
“Oregon Trail” by The Riot Before
“For Collards” by Shook Ones
“Silverfish” by Shook Ones
“All Talk” by Kid Cudi
“H-U-S-T-L-E” by Murs
“Time Bomb” by Iration
Hey matt thnx for replying.
the board isnt going to great… its a bit warped so kinda hard to ride… so might just put it up on my bedroom wall or watever..
sounds great that theres gonna be a grom in the movie……
Jeremy
Froggies backwash extras section, see who can do the most stupid, high air off that stuff. Make it happen.
Excited about the vid. My humble input is stay away from slow motion and reggae music.
Stay away from cold water please! We want to see great dk with guys in boardshort in great places, and great blue waves! Hope the Raffi section will be long. For me he’s the best.
And reggea + Drop knee will be nice!
