Spot The Inconsistency

This was one of the more difficult episodes to put together and in the process of collecting all of the footage, I ended up with a consistency error [a film making term]. It happens in movies and TV shows, why not a Scooter Sunday episode. Leave a comment if you spot it. No prize, just the happy feeling inside that you caught a film making glitch.

UPDATE: the other associated term for errors in film and production is continuity.

    I loved it. Absolutely loved it!

  2. Penelope says:

    I was too busy spotting the name on the side of ScUtah! She looks gooooodddd ;o)
    You are bonkers riding in that weather though!

  3. Rachel says:

    didn’t people think you were crazy I always look at people on motorcycles like they are mentally incapacitated in some way if they ride in the rain. I was cold just thinking about sitting in wet clothes all day (or because my air just kicked in )

  4. kapgar says:

    It was hard to say for sure, but it looks like most of the action footage was shot before you put the name “scUtah” on the side of the Beast. Is that the inconsistency?

  5. Sybil Law says:

    You misspelled “believe”. Other than that, I got nothin’!
    Still enjoyed the video, though!!!

  6. Dave2 says:

    This video makes me miss my motorcycle. :-(

  7. martymankins says:

    robin – Thank you.

    penelope – The name does look good on it. And yes, bonkers describes yesterday’s ride in the rain. All for the fun of making videos on the ScUtah.

    rachel – I’m sure I turned a few heads. Actually the day started out nice, but this rain storm came at the right/wrong time while heading home from work. I got pretty wet and had to change once I got home.

    kapgar – Nope. All footage except for one scene was shot Monday. Hint… it’s at the end before the credits.

    sybil law – Thanks for catching the misspelling. It’s now corrected. Look above to the hint I gave to Kapgar.

    dave2 – I bet. You loved your motorcycle. :-(

  8. Ren says:

    Not the magical umbrella!

  9. “It’s a bit slick”

    Good lord man, you’re braver than I am. As always, an excellent video.

  10. Alex says:

    Gonna take a stab in the dark that it’s the drier patio when you’re under the umbrella. But in any case, a great video!

    *applause*

  11. martymankins says:

    ren – Nope. But it’s that final scene.

    kevin – Thank you. And yes, it was brave. The pelting on my eyes was the worst part.

    alex – Close… very close. That does point to the fact that the final scene was filmed at a different time.

  12. Alex says:

    it’s your shoes and/or your pants

  13. martymankins says:

    alex WE HAVE A WINNER!!! (and it’s also my jeans, too)

  14. Alex says:

    Yay! Let the warm fuzzies begin…

  15. Karl says:

    I was going to say you changed your Wonder Bra, but apparently that wasn’t it. You’ve got to watch out when your bra gets wet, or it’ll chafe.

  16. martymankins says:

    karl – Chafing is bad… very bad. Especially down under when the water can flood the boxers.

  17. delmer says:

    I don’t ride in the rain. I’ve been out in 18F temps (on a bicycle … and my goal was to hit the road before the temp climbed to 20F) but I stay in when it’s wet. I’m too afraid of sliding.

    Wait, I rode in the rain once. I did 12 miles on the bike path. It’s free of those thick road markings that are so slippery when wet.

    I don’t know if I’ve said it before, but that’s a fine looking scooter. The addition of the name dresses it up a bit.

  18. martymankins says:

    delmer – When I used to road bike a lot years ago, I rode in just about every kind of weather, except for extreme icy conditions. My friend Kris (who comments here as breakaway9) rides a lot and rode through most of the winter time. This was the first time I’d ridden the scooter in pretty much any wet road conditions. It wasn’t bad, except for the pelting rain on my eyes.

    Thank you for the scooter comment. And yes, the name does add a touch of class to it.
