as always, Amazing!

what where you using for this one?
Pablo Korona 2 years ago

I'm impressed with the story you've created here.

The lone kite, contrasted with the sardine packed trains.
Ending on a rather melancholy tone by having individualism fail, and end on packed society.

Just saying… its beautiful footage, I just see potential for a great hopeful story where one probably wasn't intended.

Joël Cox 2 years ago

I'm currently rereading The Kite Runner, and this film can easily match its quality.

Really beautiful video! I love that you caught it at a perfect time of day to get the nicest of colors and lighting. I am going to India next month and am so so so nervous! I've never been out of the US before, not even to Canada or Mexico, so any tips from you on the whole culteure shock thing would be greatly appreciated!! Take care, and again, lovely video!

Pls excluse my ignorance but what is a "Red One"?
Jay Shropshire 2 years ago

wow, I really thought this was film until I read it. Amazing. Did you expose for the sun on that one shot or was the smog so bad that you could just actually see it like that with your eye. nice footage mac.

That last shot of the train in the sunset was stunning. That looked like HDR in still photography. Did you do something simmilar?

Superb video. I am from Mumbai so it's always good to the city in all in unique colors. Brilliant video. I am really happy that you have found different vantage points for yourself to shoot from. Sometimes without the smooth sliding shots, a video looks fabulous. . Too good.
