Here Comes Winter!

A lot of the time I have spent in the field over the last three years has been spent creating content I haven’t been able to share here on the blog – video.

There are a couple of reasons I haven’t been able to share much of my video work.  For one, I don’t market my stock video – it all goes to an agent under an exclusive license.

In addition, I have also spent a couple of years (2011 and 2012) contributing video to be used in a new film at the Begich, Boggs Visitor Center.  I was hired to do what they called the “beauty shots”.  Lots of landscapes, wildlife time-lapse etc.  Now that the production is done (it began airing last Summer), I can share some of my work – they also had an exclusive arrangement.

So here is a short variety of Winter clips.  Some of the things I was assigned were more challenging to capture then you might think – like fresh snow blowing from trees.  As often as I have seen that happen over the years – it is hard to be set-up  and rolling before it happens.  The opening clips which go from Summer to Autumn and then Winter were a lot of fun, and something I hope to do more of in the future.

By the way, if you do get by the Begich, Boggs Visitor Center, check out the video.  I also have a number of photos on the walls of the Center, and in the Visitor Guide – I am proud of the wonderful relationship I have had with the Chugach National Forest over the years.
