MarkCup's BMW i3S

[MarkCup]

Some i3S love, a short one, a voiceover experiment. Lessons learned, I'll try again.

I watched that when you posted it and thought it was a really good review, informative and pretty snappy in its presentation so I’m not sure why you have reservations.

Thanks for the feedback 👍

I'm quite happy with what I ended up with, but the journey, the production, the editing, was completely different to how I normally operate.

A good few tweaks to my workflow will sort that though.

Main lesson learned is to get at least twice as much b-roll as I think I'll need.

A fairly hard country road thrash, just a few miles, and the power starts being pulled back

 

[MarkCup]

Gave it its long overdue third clean in my ownership. Scrubs up well. Still looks odd.

5,630 miles now, rear tyres haven't got long left 🤣

 

[MarkCup]

I'm 6,000 miles in with the i3 now...and when out for a drive, just for the sake of a drive, the lack of ICE noise doesn't bother me at all...that's a genuine surprise as I thought I would need those RPM sensory inputs to connect with and enjoy the car.

But I've learned that the i3 still has those vital sensory inputs, they're just different, and I've grown to like hearing the road noise, hearing the tyres work, hearing the friction brakes when they're called upon, and most of all hearing the subtle whine of the motor as it spins up toward 12,000 RPM.

I'm a fifth of the way through my lease mileage already and that honestly makes me a little bit sad 🤣

@Cookie 21:9 sleep aid...

 

[MarkCup]

This thing still thumps along nicely at pace, 7,500 miles covered now, and a recent brief venture into the world of public charging...

TLDW: I arrived, I charged, I paid, I left, twice.

One year of 'ownership' now, not quite what I planned for its anniversay

She was on her phone the whole time.

 

[MarkCup]

She was on her phone the whole time.

Yep, well, she was until I called her a c**t.

 

[Djw John]

Hope they Chuck on littering for throwing the fag end out as well 😂

 

[Starlet_gt]

Yep, well, she was until I called her a c**t.

Are you going to send it in to the police? I don't agree with it usually, but she was completely oblivious to what was going on.

 

[MarkCup]

I wouldn't usually, never have done before, but the more and more I watch her, the entire 5 minutes she just didn't give a flying f**k about anything other than her fag and her phone.

 

[McGherkin]

Piece of piss, most forces are running an operation snap page now.

[Naughty Boy]

Any damage?

 

[MarkCup]

Nothing. Completely unmarked.

 

[Naughty Boy]

She’s f**king lucky

 

[Starlet_gt]

I wouldn't usually, never have done before, but the more and more I watch her, the entire 5 minutes she just didn't give a flying f**k about anything other than her fag and her phone.

I think of it from the point of view of being on my motorbike and having someone like that behind me. She's completely oblivious and evidently doesn't give a toss about other road users.

 

[Stefan.]

What a stupid c**t, I'd send it to the police

f**k her, she will only do it again 🙄

There’s a lot more phone usage than that!

 

[Djw John]

Grass

 

[MarkCup]

Yep!

I really tried, but I just can't let that go.

 

[MarkCup]

I'd changed that to "first evidenced at" and described her constant usage in my written statement.

I wouldn't, she was a mess 🤮

 

[Christopher]

Top man. Great work, hopefully it slaps some of the orange out of her.

Terrifying how oblivious some people are to the responsibility of driving.

 

[MarkCup]

F*** yes. Served!

Quick response too!

I'd never snitch like that as I feel karma would be a b**ch when I do something daft.

 

[MarkCup]

I wouldn't either, but someone has to or else sh*t like this will continue and someone will get hurt.

 

[RustyMojo]

You did the right thing Mark, hopefully she will learn as a consequence and not kill someone in the future.

 

[Donny_Dog]

She'd have took no notice of Mark, in his deck shoes trying to educate her at the roadside. Fair play I say. Even if that is just a warning.
Which is probably sufficient you'd hope.

 

[MatthewR]

100% done the right thing, can't wait for her to get the notice and then to find your YouTube channel though 😂

 

[Krarl]

If anything it's an important lesson for her

Imagine if she was driving down the road on her phone and mowed down a kid. Mark could be potentially saving some poor c***s life here. Speeding doesn't kill anymore, it's useless c***s tapping away on their phone because they can't leave it be for more than 30 seconds

 

[Robbie Corbett]

Her (on the phone after); "When he pointed at me, I don't think I've ever been so turned on"

 

[Krarl]

It's a good job he whipped the gloves off because she would have had a fatal orgasm

I'm not disagreeing that people who use their phones whilst driving need their license taking off them.

I just know as soon as I reported someone for absolutely anything I'd have something in the post for some mild traffic light gp 😂

Should be a caption competition here.
Best one, wins a used CS key ring bottle opener from about 2015

"Mark parts flaps"

That's my submission
