Video: Ridgetop Landing Above Clouds

I finally broke down and decided to try some narration. Here's my first effort. Judging by how much work it was, it may be my last! After trying to tell the story of my magical morning, rather than just doing a standard flying video, I have a whole new appreciation for the amount of effort that goes into the magic Z shares with us in his videos.

Hope you enjoy.

Great looking video. I'm sad about the glitch, it was about to hit the pinnacle of the vid! I can't wait to see the full one. Thanks for uploading it and keep up the good work. =D>

Re: Video: Ridgetop Landing Above Clouds

Your narration is fine and actually adds a sense of connection to the video - until 4:30 in when the audio stops and the video slows way down. I tried going directly to YouTube but found no joy. I guess the complications with adding narrative didn't stop with the original compiling effort. Still, I'm jealous of the serendipitous environment you found yourself in - even if you didn't get up at zero dark thirty. I actually admire your sanity as well as your videos now!

Another great video. Like others, I thought the narration was a real plus.
Thx

Really nice.

I watch some of those outdoor shows on Sportsman Channel in the winter. You're "amateur" production and editing puts 99% of those programs to shame.

Re: Video: Ridgetop Landing Above Clouds

Nice work, Darin! It definitely makes a story out of footage, that's the key. And what footage that was...

Great job on the video ..... amazing views. Where exactly was that? I flew through that area in April - pretty country. Hope you're planning more videos =D>
