This video was shot in Lickey Hills Country ParkWaseley Hills Country Park last week. It was an overcast afternoon, and you probably can see how that affected the lighting and colours of the scenes.
Shot it one afternoon after a day spent in the library, followed by three days of post production. I don’t know why the creative feeling come out extra strong after getting out of the library or class, this is not the first time. It could be because of being free after long hours of staying between the dark 4 walls, or it could be the long hours of reading actually opening some closed channels in the brain, I don’t know… somebody should study this phenomena.
It’s a story of three friends. One of them has chosen to stay behind, and he surly had his reasons. The others couldn’t wait much longer, so they left him, and many unanswered questions; and drifted away.
I’m not into photography these days as you can see. I still haven’t imported any new photographs on my computer ever since I got back from Kuwait. On the other hand, I’m playing with video a lot, which is more fun for me and has always been my true love.. except I never had the production tools which would allow me to make a professional looking videos.. up until now.
I will continue playing with video for a while and -eventually- will try to do something useful with it soon en shaa Allah.
Videos and photos shot through airplane windows usually come out dull and lifeless, but sometimes you get lucky.. mostly when you don’t have your camera 😛
This video was shot over France and the UK on a Kuwait Airways flight from Kuwait to Heathrow on March 2008. I hope you enjoy it.
Watch it on it’s own page in full screen HD if possible… it’s worth it.
