The travel diaries 2011
1 month ago
Loneliness, detached, overwhelmed, fascinated, homesick - a year of travelling around the globe on business trips.
I flew 6 times around the world, spent 1.5 weeks (net) in airplanes 2011 and collected shots the whole year for this project.
I walked for hours around airports to get the one shot, got nearly arrested at Chicago O'Hare but had some good luck too!
Filmed at Seoul, Shanghai, Beijing, Chicago, Houston, Dubai, Frankfurt and my home - airport Vienna.
Shot on Lumix GH1 and GH2 (both hacked), by making use of the ETC mode on the GH2 I was able to get up to 3200mm equiv. focal length.
Hope you enjoy this!

Thanks for sharing!
Cheers!
I am amazed how far you push your GH2 with your bag of rice :-) ... I almost can't believe you still don't use a tripod ... beautiful work all around!
As I mentioned before, would be great if you tried another more subtle music track to illustrate the loneliness of traveling even more. This is very bombastic and doesn't 100% fit the message you want to convey.
Will you try the Driftwood Hack for the GH2? Philip's shootout showed that it is absolutely amazingly sharp ...
Thank you very much for your feedback already during post production!!
I agree about the music track. I am thinking about a second, very different version using also the comments from Peter.
At the moment unfortunately I cannot try anything as my GH2 is for repair at Panasonic for more than two months already.
Hope to get it back soon....
Is this a warranty issue?
Those Lumix are great in your hands...
Toll!
Simply beautiful !
Thanks for sharing.
All the best from Spain.
I personally really liked your choice of music for the piece...well done Gunther.
Happy New Year to you and I look forward to seeing more of your work in 2012. Best wishes.
I was going to ask how you how you kept the camera so steady in the cars and on the trains but i guess from an earlier post its it's a bag of rice!
Cheers

are the scenes after 0:39 time lapses or normal videos at higher speed?
which lenses did you use?
Ersatzweise hättest du deine hübsche Frau nehmen können, die du filmisch bereits in Rom eingeführt hattest.
Aber ich versteh schon, was du meinst.
Ach ja: die Berge finde ich auch sehr toll.
Kudos!
:-)))
Toll geworden, tolle Schüsse, aber mir persönlich ist der Score viel zu episch, passt nicht so ganz zum urbanen drumherum. Oboen passen halt besser zum Grand Canyon;)...dennoch....-> Film gefällt:)
Ich tendiere halt gerne zu den eher kitschigen Songs.
PS: I like epic soundtracks too ;-)
When are you going to stop messing around with your other job and just take up filmmaking for a living?
Thanks for the inspiration.
haha, thanks for the nice comments!
My problem is (the typical one), that I don't think I would earn enough as a filmmaker to feed my family. But it's definitely something which is somewhere back in my mind ;-).
I would have really loved to meet you back in O'Hare. But we'll definitely have another chance someday!
Where were the misty hill ridges in this video (2:10) ?
The misty hill ridges are close to Salzburg in Austria.
