Re: UWOL 43 - Tales of wonders and woes
Well i'm home safe & sound. The weather was a bit wild, some of my cooking was a bit wild too!! :)
One thing i did see that was really very cool, & of course pretty wild, was to get a shot of a couple of young grizzly bears walking down the side of the road with a lovely mountain in the background. These guys were heading down my way, when along came a couple of older black bear cubs between myself & the 2 young grizz. That was pretty wild,.. But then along came the mother of the two black bear cubs!! All five bears in the shot at the same time!! Well until a vehicle came along & scared them all off :( Northern British Columbia is certainly wild that's for sure. Hope i can do it justice!! Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with this round, it should be a cracker!!

Re: UWOL 43 - Tales of wonders and woes
Must have been very exciting to see the bears so close. Looking forward to see what you have filmed.
Everyone: Remember the option to upload a temporary "work in progress" film later this month. See the theme release thread for the details. |

Re: UWOL 43 - Tales of wonders and woes
Well I am back! I covered 4,386 miles and drove through ten States (no bears, good for you Bryce). Anyway, I started this trip with a definite story in mind and started to shoot my shot list for my video. However, during the last few days of my trip I decided to go with a completely different idea. I will try to post a short "work in progress" this week. Bob

Re: UWOL 43 - Tales of wonders and woes
Sounds great Bob, I can't wait to hear what you came up with, & how it differed from your original idea.

Bryce, all I can say is that it is 180 degrees from my original plan.

Re: UWOL 43 - Tales of wonders and woes
I've been a bit sidetracked with other projects, including a rushed MyRodeReel entry. Kind of reflects my UWOL efforts in many ways. It's even harder with only 3 minutes to play with.
I have some vague ideas... there is one I alluded to doing as a followup to an earlier UWOL film, in the voiceover itself. Just dicing up if it will work. Maybe I should just try it, and see if I come up with something better in the meantime, Still waiting on usable snow, so I don't know if I can use that this round. |

Re: UWOL 43 - Tales of wonders and woes
I'm down in the tallgrass prairies of Oklahoma this week looking for an idea.
Think I may have finally fond one of I can flesh out a sentence into something thats a few minutes long. Magical place down here. 39,000 acres of native tallgrass prairie. The biggest native tallgrass prairie in North America and possibly the world. |

Re: UWOL 43 - Tales of wonders and woes
Well Kevin, looks like we just missed each other. I was there on my 11 day trip. Fantastic place to video wildlife. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Bob

Re: UWOL 43 - Tales of wonders and woes
Would have been awesome to have a UWOL meet up Bob! :)
Really surprised at all the wounds on the bison. I've never seen that many on the bison in Yellowstone. I sat at watched the bison for a while this morning and they really go after each other. Lots of injuries! |

Re: UWOL 43 - Tales of wonders and woes
Tomorrow is my last day in Oklahoma. Such an amazing place! I think it helped gel an idea but I still need to figure out how to put it together.
When I get home I'll write up my idea and see if you think it will fly Gotta grab a cookie hours of sleep then head back out. It's starting to warm up and coupled with the humidity it really zaps your strength |

Re: UWOL 43 - Tales of wonders and woes
Kevin, this was my fourth time through the Tall Grass Prairie and it still fascinates me. The bison that I saw looked pretty healthy to me. This time I stopped off there on my way to Monument Valley. I have also been working on a theme and will post my idea later. Bob

Just a few notes on my idea for "Once We Were Wild"
My video will attempt to show how our country morphed from a wild open lands and rivers to domesticated civilization. Such as going from wild tall grass prairie to cultivated fields, from herds of wild free roaming bison to domesticated cattle.
