We are the Driftprod Team composed of 6 international UCR students. The members are Alexis Ostrovick, Alexandre Collat, Jean Phillipe Carquet, Siva Sivanesan, Philipp Lomme and Thibault Torrecilla.
This project we'll talk about is part of our assignment for the Video production class of Ms. Kim "Kat" Shepherd. She is not only a teacher but a real coach from who we learned a lot about practicalities of video production. We would like to thanks her for her amazing job.
So, what is the project about? The class has been divided in different teams, each of the teams had to choose a subject and make a short video of 6 minutes about it. The video could be an interview, a presentation as a TV add, a documentary, whatever we felt like doing.
So, here we are, the Drifting Prod team decided to introduce you, public and readers, what Drifting is.
I'm pretty sure all of you have heard, at least once, about the movies Fast and Furious, in which bad asses drives tuning cars going crazy. When you see a lot of smoke coming from the tires, which is part of the drifting experience.
For the formal definition, here you the Wikipedia one :
"Drifting is a driving where the driver intentionally over-steers, causing loss of traction in the rear wheels, while maintaining control from entry to exit of a corner".
Our video will be documentary oriented. We want to show to the public what is drifting in real life, what are the risk, how to do that, the sensation it gives to the drivers...
In order to show you the best of it, we contacted Adams Motorsports Park Company in Riverside. They invited us as guest on their racing/drifting track during the drifting night’s shows, it allowed us to meet the drivers, try the cars, shoot the drifts and so on...
That's it for this post, we'll be back soon to give you a feedback about our experience at Adam's track.
Driftprod Team.
