New version with sound

Sorry if the video quality is poor had to make room for the sound effects and i didn't want to wait forever for the video to load on here

info on my clip

In this version there is a shot of the desert followed by the rocket car appearing into view this is followed by an above view then a still shot of the tail fin while . Next is a view of the cockpit from the front portion of the vehicle , then a freeze shot of one of the wheels. The Shot then changes to another camera moving along struggling to stay along the rocket car the rocket car. however eventually speeds by as it leaves the cameras field of view. Then a shot showing the rocket car leaving the scene as a Shock wave radiates from behind at the last second of the clip.

another version

I'm thinking of probably combining elements from the various ideas i posted earlier

please comment on the one that you feel would work out best or what elements in any one of them would work.

1. 
   
   30 seconds .
   A panning shot of the southwestern dessert. suddenly the camera changes focuse to a shadow, The shadow then the camera view changes we see a wheel and then a tail fin, a loud rumble is heard then the wheels start to move. A voice is heard the voice of a announcer There he goes on a quest to break the Current land speed record.
   


2. 
   30 seconds.
   Clip starts with rocket car already moving across the dessert with moments of time freezing and parts of the rocket are appearing. Then time goes back to real time and the car flies by a followed by a Shockwave that violently shakes the camera .
   


3. 
   1 minute.
   Clip starts with shadow followed by a series of stills of various parts of the rocket car. rocket car still image parts of the vehicle are seen before the whole vehicle is revealed then the clips suddenly you see a flame blast behind the vehicle the wheels start to move and a cloud of smoke rises in the back as the car starts to speed up. Camera moves forward several seconds later and the scene changes to the rocket car screaming across the dessert with a blast of a dust cloud surrounding the vehicle as it breaks the sound barrier .
   


4. 
   40 seconds .
   Shot one the salt flats of Nevada quiet and tranquil. Suddenly you hear a sonic boom and see a see a dot in the distance appears as if its still though the dot appears to get closer and a shape emerges, suddenly a close up and you realize that it is a rocket car is moving fast, very fast. Shot changes to another camera that camera moves along struggling to stay along the rocket car the rocket car. however speeds by as it leaves the cameras field of view. Then a shot from the sky shows the rocket car speeding across the salt flats. With white smoke trailing behind it.

A rough sequence of a few of the shots

Here is rough idea of the sequence of shots .

Shot 1
The animation would start as a shot of the desert .
Shot 2
Then a shot of of a shadow, the shadow being that of a rocket car.
Shot 3
A switch is pressed.
Shot 4
Smoke (or steam) slowly billows out of the rocket nozzle at the end of the car.
Shot 5
Suddenly a flame shoots out expands then contracts .
Shot 6
The wheels start to move.
Shot 7
Slowly the Rocket car starts to accelerate.
Shot 8
Picking up speed the rocket car travels down the desert surface .
Shot 9
Inside the car the view suddenly starts to shake.
Shot 10
The car starts to accelerate to over now reaching over 500 miles an hour.
Shot 11
A view of the car from high above the desert floor shows a huge dust cloud trailing behind the rocket car.
Shot 12
another distant shot a few miles away
suddenly a loud sonic boom is heard the car has just broken the sound barrier.
Shot 13
the rocket car then starts to coast down the desert as the rocket motor shuts down.
Or the car vanishes leaving a trail of flames down the desert (kind of similer to what happens in back to the future when the Deloria travels through time).
Shot 14
if the car is still there it A parachute is deployed decreasing the deceleration of the car .

Other shots will be added once i develop it .
