Attempting some video editing

I enjoy doing a little video editing. I wouldn't say I am any good at it, but I just enjoy it. I have an action camera that I use on my motorbike helmet and I thought I would try doing something with the footage I have collected so I cracked open Sony Vegas and made a couple of videos. I used a mixture of clips in them from slightly amusing things to your typical road ragy things. In the first video I thought I would try throwing in a few rage faces to the mix to see how that would go, I'm not sure if they really worked though so the second video has none (would like an opinion on that).

I'm just looking for feedback, so let me know what you think of the videos whether its good or bad feedback (as long as its constructive).

Episode 1:

Episode 2:

Also at the end of the second video I put a much longer clip of some riding through a bit of countryside / forest. Its something I am thinking of doing at the end of each video, it might be interesting for some of you American's to see what a corner looks like (I joke :P ).

Thanks in advance for any feedback

I can't do crap in terms of editing videos. You're lucky you can even figure out half the things that you have to do in the program you're using.

i weatched episode 1. audio levels are all over the place :S i had to constnatly change my volume so my ears didnt bleed from the loudness at some parts :S

otherwise everything else ull just learnm to do yourself and improve naturally.

Yeah, the problem is that the audio comes from so many different places. The general audio comes from a pin hole mic in the front of the camera, its to quiet most of the time, until you go over 50mph, then you're deafened by wind noise which is made worse by the fact they decided the mic should go right on the front of the camera (no idea what the thinking was there), then the music is much loader because music just is :P and the despicable me audio was to quiet (I actually made it louder in the editing software but that's as loud as it would go). Eventually after trying to adjust the audio on all these different clips I just thought 'You know what this is getting worse and worse, this will have to do and I will think more in advance with the next video before I throw loads of different audio tracks on it'. Hence the second episode is much simpler :L

The biggest problem will be the wind noise, I don't think I can do much on that in editing, I can buy a thing to put on the camera though but it will make it look like I have a dead rat attached to the side of my head :L
