Here's the teaser to our newest film. I always get the answers to my questions, couldn't survive without Cafe La. Cheers Gang!





COMING IN JULY 2009! From the directors of the award-winning motorcycle movies "Choppertown: the Sinners" and "Brittown" comes a new motorcycle fabrication documentary.



Two years in the making, The Harbortown Bobber follows the ground-up build of Scott DiLalla's '69 bobber as various backyard masters put their hands on it creating a unique custom motorcycle and telling their own personal stories as they work. Featuring Irish Rich (Sinner Nomad), Earl Kane (Earl's Bikes), J-Bird (Japanese Jay), Jonathan Smith, Todd's Cycles, U.S. Kustoms, Dennis Goodson.




Thanks as always for the support. Stay independent.

Zack,

A little feedback:

It's WAAAAY too long, bro. That song and the content gets very repetitive after 1:30 (stopped watching it after that). I would pick & choose the best of the best clips and cut it way down. Also...avoid trying to match action to the beat (hammering to the beats in one clip). Looks cheesy IMHO.

Good luck!

When life gives you dilemmas...make dilemmanade.

I think length is a symptom, not the disease.

The fact is, I didn't see a single true story element. All I saw were shots, shots, shots...I didn't get the point. And the prospect of watching that for even three minutes (the length of your teaser) made me want to go to sleep as early as the 45-second mark.

Take out the music and cut this like a two-minute story. Get some real content in there. Even the best music couldn't make this piece work if you don't have a real structure and message. What's the conflict? What are the characters? What's the story?
