Self-shot documentary
« on: February 28, 2018, 10:05:56 am »

I like the way he maintains the look and feel of a "normal" documentary even though it's self-shot: .

Fantastic. That he shot this all himself is incredible.
It looks like it was shot by a crew.  Superb film making. 
Damn kids!  :)

He should produce another video showing how it is possible to shoot a film by himself that looks so much like it was shot by an accompanying photographer or crew of photographers.  ;)

For example, to get the distance shots of himself cycling across the terrain, he must have placed the camera on a tripod at some speficic viewpoint , then cycled away a few hundred metres with remote control in hand, then cycled back later to retrieve the camera and tripod.

What a talented film maker.
The story is compelling.
But for me, the key skill is the weaving of the intensely personal and intimate with the full breathtaking scope of the wild north.
Superb stuff.

Excellent work!! Exactly how he did it...This type of film making is back braking. Very physical production, not for the weary...Like me!
