Group Shot

As promised, a smaller episode “2.5″ will be released at some point after 3. Hopefully you will be entertained!

ToTR 2.5 & More to come!

November 19th, 2007 Posted in Update | 1 Comment »

While out in California for work, a few of us had a little bit of time to spare… we had a car, and a camera, and a few moments of driving we managed to fit in.

To keep everyone entertained, we filmed a short version titled 2.5, it should be ready later this week, just in time for your Thanksgiving festivities.  This is a mini-episode, and will not live up to a full show, but it’s just as fun!

While talking of episodes, we will be filming Episode 3 this weekend. It may become a two part episode if we gather enough content on our journey. We decided not to let you pick our choices this time, because we have some awesome directions, even though they’re very vague.  More to come later this week :)

Happy Thrills!

It’s About Episode 3… Hint Hint.

October 27th, 2007 Posted in News, Update | No Comments »

While brainstorming for episode 3, we have come up with another awesome idea. We can’t reveal the secret — however, it does involve history, food, and hopefully a whole lot of fun.

We will be very busy for the next 2 weeks due to SEMA and the LA Auto show, and other miscellaneous job related events.

It will be a few weeks before we can film Episode 3

During this hiatus, we urge all of you to watch Episodes 1 and 2 again, and give us any suggestions you can think of.

Tom

Whether you like seeing more of us on camera, more JF, Tom, or even Ian. Whether it’s comedic drawn out action sequences or more douchebaggery. We’ll change what we can, just for you. (Within reason of course)

At the moment, here are some suggestions we’ve heard numerous times, and we’re going to implement them for Ep. 3.

  • Steadier in-car camera work
  • More Ian on camera
  • More humor/funny conversation
  • Show times and locations more frequently
  • Find more interviews and “cool” things
  • Can you visit me? Can I be part of the show?*

Got anything to add to this list? Don’t like something above? Let us know in the comment form, or email us privately ( thrilloftheroad [at] gmail.com )

*For those of you who want us to visit you or somehow participate, give us your location, email address, and availability. If we’re in the area, we may stop and include in the episode.

JF

We have spent a lot of money on this show so far. It’s not cheap to drive like this, the time spent filming, editing, etc, costs a lot.

We would love to get paid to do this, but unfortunately we don’t. If you enjoy the show, and want to donate something, we’ve added a paypal donation button to the top of the page.

Ian

Feel free to donate as much or as little as you like. If you contribute and let us know, we’ll send you a sticker, and give you credit/get you on the show at some point.See you all in the near future!

Thrill of the Road: Episode 2

October 22nd, 2007 Posted in Episode, News | 8 Comments »

Here it is, the second episode of TOTR.
(Our new codename. Like it? Yeah, I thought so.)

Due to Vimeo’s AMAZING new HD video support, we have put this episode up at HD resolution. If you have a screaming fast connection, or just want the best visual quality, check it out on Vimeo in HD.

Also! (Yes, there is an also… two actually) One, you can now subscribe to us on iTunes! What does that mean? You can download our shows for your iPod, iPhone, or whatever other digital player you have. (Link coming soon)

Two, we now have our own flash player. Maybe it will help with bandwidth for the third party guys. I’m looking at you Vimeo, I know this HD stuff costs a ton. (Thanks Mr. Karp for yelling at me) Anyhow, try it out and let us know how it feels.

Have a great day and please give us as much feedback as you have already, if not more!

Episode 2… coming soon!

October 20th, 2007 Posted in News, Update | 1 Comment »

As promised, we’ve been working day and night to get episode 2 done. (And by day and night, we mean once or twice.)

A few people have been lucky enough to see a pre-screening, and they have agreed that episode 2 is far better than episode 1. We loved hearing that, however we still want opinions from all of you. So, please comment with positive or negative thoughts.

We want to know everything you’re thinking so we can make this as entertaining as possible.

Tune in on Monday, October 22nd at 8:00AM!

We’ll see you there.
