VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!
After many requests, I am making an elevator enthusiast submitted EPIC TRACTION MOTOR compilation!! This video will feature traction elevator motors at their finest, and the videos used in it will be contributed by all of you! If you are interested in contributing to this video, please read the following directions about what to submit VERY CAREFULLY or I will NOT use your submissions!!

1. Pick THREE clips from your files of TRACTION elevators with the best motors! This compilation is strictly dedicated to TRACTION elevators with epic motors. That means NO HYDRAULIC ELEVATORS please! These three clips should be elevators with the BEST motors that you have filmed.
2. TRIM YOUR VIDEOS! I don't want your entire elevator videos-just the part with the epic motor. Please be sure that there is VERY LITTLE TO NO TALKING (no talking at all is preferred). Videos with too much talking will not be accepted.
3. Please make sure each of the two videos are in LANDSCAPE format (1080x1920). NO VERTICAL VIDEOS! The highest quality is preferred. Grainy or choppy videos will not be accepted.
4. Once you have THREE TRIMMED VIDEOS of epic motors, email them to me at elevator2848@gmail.com. In your email, make sure to put your YT USERNAME IN THE SUBJECT BOX. This is the name that will be displayed in the final compilation. If your email does not contain this, I will not accept your submissions.

Please be sure that you follow all of these directions. I look forward to your submissions! The LAST DAY to submit your videos is August 21st!!

NOTE: This will be the final elevator enthusiast compilation until next summer, so if you want to be featured, now is the time!

Q&A
Q: Can my videos be inside/outside of traction elevator machine rooms?
A: Yesm although a ride in the car is preferred.
Q: Can I submit only one clip? What about more than three clips?
A: It is ok to submit only one or two clips, three is just the max.
Q: What if my files are too big to send in a single email?
A: Send each clip in its own email. Just be sure to follow the directions by putting
your YT username in the subject box for all emails.
Q: What format do my files need to be in?
A: MP4 or Quicktime Movies work best.

@ElevatorAdventures_with_Baron

I have plenty of epic traction motors I wish I could've submitted, but too bad my channel didn't exist at the time. I hope there's a part 2 eventually. The first one was definitely an epic compilation

@ZZ9ProductionsOFFICIAL

here's one i can contribute to XD the big question is i wonder if i should submit a *very* bad condition europa 2000 motor in, the deceleration sounds good and the brakes screech like mad when it stops XD

@alexanderselevators

Did you get my email about the floor indicator trip up and down clip? It’s about an old 1961 Haughton L-Series / black button traction elevator at the Elkins Inn & Suites in Elkins, West Virginia. It serves 5 floors, it has a loud generator, and there’s no fan on.

@MrEngineer20051

Sadly, I won't be able to submit to this compilation because I have never ridden a traction Elevator with an epic motor. (I've actually BARELY ridden any traction Elevators.) Looking forward to watching the premier tho!

@wryt19

Probably won’t do this because I don’t have any epic traction motors, and I haven’t filmed any traction elevators lately lol

@livionaves

Damn I was thinking of you doing this just yesterday... An important question: What will count as a single clip? Only one ride going in a single direction, or one clip going up and another down? Can I send just the motor stopping/brake release, or both combined counting as one clip?
