An afternoon in the Pisgah National Forest with Taylor Davis.

Hi, I'm Ed Litoborski's son, Ben Litoborski......
In the past I really enjoyed anything that had to do with film. I'm starting to rediscover my interests and looking to grow as an artist. I would appreciate any and all criticism.

And my father shared his post and the suggestions to brighten up the dark areas. Got it a little better. Thanks!

This was done with the DJI Avata2 and DaVinci. I'm still learning how to properly adjust the colors and all that good stuff.

Beautiful scenery for your video. Welcome to FocalWorld.

I loved the fall colors. I am a waterfall nutcase so your subject had my attention from the start. Nice flying for the various segments in your video - I'd love to try flying with goggles sometime. I like the segments flowing the streams and paths through the trees.

I fly a Mavic 3 Pro but with an RC Pro controller and the camera view screen is not as immersive as the view through goggles. Not as conducive to the kind of flying you were doing with your Avata2. I shoot almost entirely still photos with my Mavic 3 Pro and readily admit to having no skills whatever for cinematography :)

Welcome to FocalWorld Ben!

It's great to see more video work in here.

Wonderful work. There is something cool about the smoothness of a drone. I really like your cuts and transitions, as I told your Dad, they are very professional looking. It's something I should do in my video's but I am stuck on trying to make most of my video's one long capture. I need to ditch that and do it like you did here.

I find editing video to be much harder then editing a still image. Davinci Resolve is a good editor. @Kyle Jones is using it I believe. I had downloaded it, but never really used it. For video editing I am using the Video Editor in Adobe Premiere Elements. I have just been keeping my video editing to simple adjustments. For the Video Assembly I use Movavi. I like how simple it is to add music and titles to my videos.

It's great to have you here and look forward to more of your work!

Jim

@JimFox @AlanLichty @Jameel Hyder @Comet Hunter

Thank you all so much for the thoughtful and kind messages.....I truly appreciate it. This doesn't come easy to me at all. I'm a very closed in type of person and have been trying to push myself out of my comfort zone due to age and recent events in my life. Doing this is the therapy i make myself do for myself and its working. I work 3rd shift hours and sleep is often elusive to me, so please forgive me if I'm not always the best in communication lol It is what it is i guess but I mean well. I'll be responding back personally because I feel like that is appropriate. I'm interested in a lot of different things and will try to be creative with how I share in the different channels.
