    do you know of a forum or a site that deals with video techniques, like bluescreen tricks, stunt creation, video splicing, digital manipulation, etc ?

    I want to videotape myself doing a tripple backflip, where you start with both feet on the ground, jump up, do 3 backflips in the air and then land on both feet. This is impossible to do in real life, but it can probably be done with video tricks. I have a camcoder, tripod, trampoline, flood lights, but no real experience or knowledge of techniques that can help me with this stunt. Can you direct me to a good place ?

    Well can you do at least one backflip and land on your feet?

    no, I can't.

    However, if I use a trampoline with ropes, I can probably do all 3 in the air with a bit of practice.

    If I use trampoline without ropes, I'll probably manage to do one backflip eventually. Currently, I don't want to push my luck without ropes.

    ok. Suppose I can find someone who can do one backflip. It doesn't have to be me doing it. A stunt double is okay. Will this help ?
