First Youtube Attempt

My first attempt at making a youtube video. I know it's kinda rough but I've never done any sort of video editing before. I used a gopro hero 3+ and iMovie to edit it. Any feedback and tips would be appreciated.

Keep in mind that using music will make it impossible to collect ad revenue later. I make about $150 a month from my YouTube channel. Some of my older videos have millions of views but I was using music back then, so I'm missing out on the revenue from those. Get in the habit of not using music in case you're offered a partnership at some point in the future. I would much rather hear the sound of the rx-8, and the GoPro should be able to capture it nicely. I used one inside the car for a while and it works great, but now I have a dedicated dash cam... slightly better quality.

Well this was literally my first video ever, I made 2 subscribers lol :P. And only have like 300 views or so. Hopefully it blows up that'd be cool aside from making money. And it's my personal GoPro so I plan on making more videos exhaust related and interior cruising through some cool roads. I'm taking a trip in a few weeks and it involves very mountainous roads so I'm hoping to get some cool footage.

Yeah it's supposed to be 1080p but my MacBook won't show it to me and YouTube kinda screwed the quality some. The raw file looks 10x better than the YouTube video.

Collinsville is so far. That's why I didn't make it to your last shindig. We should roll around downtown after dark or through Jeffco roads like Adam did.

You didn't see Adam's vid going through back roads? He put it up on FB right about the same time you posted this one a few days ago.
