Video Description:

I’m always looking for a reason to get outside with my camera to capture the mountains, whether it be with photos or video. So when I heard about a film competition in my home town of the Crowsnest Pass, I was really excited to put something together. This is the submission that I created over the course of a few weekends and countless hours of editing (I’m always surprised at how much work goes into these things), and it’s something that I’m really proud of.

When I think of the mountains, my thoughts usually go to summiting crazy peaks, skiing or biking at high speeds, or caving into the deep, dark, depths of the mountains. But these are all extreme aspects of the mountains. On a more day-to-day level, I really do think that the mountains are simply home. It’s where we choose to live, and they are as much a part of us as we are of them. So that’s the idea that I tried to capture with this video, and the reason that I have unofficially named the video “Home.”

On a side note, I’ve recently started a business to do photos and videos on a more professional level, and this is one of my first efforts to put something together that is more along the lines of what I want to create. More on the business soon!
