The American West
1 year ago
Holiday clips from last year. I decided to re edit a few of the holiday clips from our trip to the States last year. Full of wobbly hand held nonsense but I only bought the camera (my first) three days before we set off so I had no idea what I was doing. That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it.
Music from Legends of the Fall.
Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park, Grand Canyon, and Monument Valley, with Kay El Bar Ranch in Arizona to finish.
JVC HD7, FCP 6, no colour correction.

I was in Zion in the late 70s, without a camera. I need to go back there too.
One other "must see" for me is Lone Pine California, another area where lots of westerns have been filmed, even the 1939 version of Gunga Din. Don't know if I can make it there next year or not.
BTW, I had searched for Monument Valley videos on Vimeo before, and I think you have the best footage here.
You need to get a slice of that Bumbleberry Pie from the Bumbleberry cafe at the far end of Zion. YUM!
John, I live about 4 hours drive from Lone Pine and I enjoy it as well. I make 2 or 3 trips through there every year. Make sure to visit the museum there, lots of filmmaking history.
To visit Zion, Monument and Bryce, we stayed in Kanab which is a great little town itself to use as a base before heading down to the Grand Canyon.
I wish I'd had a camera for a few months or even weeks before I went to all these places last year, then at least I'd have known about the importance of a lightweight tripod!
I'm getting a hankering to get back there myself. For an Englishman, I feel very at home there.
Thanks for dropping by guys.
sorry I ahve send my earlier comment to the wrong person but a great movie and great places which we will visit next April/May.
Music is also the right one.
To avoid to much moving use plugin from Mercalli from Prodad. this will stabilize.

Check back in a couple of days to see the difference.
seems to work on most shots but not all. The really slow ones go all jittery so I've dumped it from those shots but mist are very good.
Thanks for that
Cheers

The colours look amazing.
Hey that wasn't bad videoing either considering you'd just got the camera!
I don't think once a year with the old hard-earned is asking too much is it?
Petra says hi by the way. AND she says orange suits you.
I wish we were going back sometime soon. I love the place.
Thanks for looking and have fun when you get out there!
