Here is one of the warmest spots in Canada

A few people have told me that the music does not go well with the video. Can anyone recommend a good place to get free music? I'm starting to run out of options

That was pretty good! I find my free music on the youtube audio library. You have to try to match the type of music you use to the people are going to watch the video and the mood of the video aswell. For a nature video that is slow like this one, I would suggest a track with some piano maybe a simple drum beat... it is all personal preference though!

Looks awesome! I'm from Kamloops but lived in Vernon for awhile. Loved shooting Kalamalka lake.

Ya Kal lake is a beautiful spot forsure. I think we are going to go right to the top of Enderby cliffs next week and do a shoot up there..

---Happy Flying---

I watch drone videos of the Okanagan just to make myself home sick. I miss that place so much. Thank god for vacations.

Great video!

Question, what editing software did you use? And how did you get the typography to move with the movement of photography? Thanks!

I use Adobe Premiere for editing and Adobe After Effects for the motion tracking text.

Nice one mate!
I understand the comments that said the music might not match the footage, but I know the struggle to find good music, and I actually liked it.
Question; when you say you use premiere... is that elements or pro? I use premiere elements, and I kinda liked the stuttering effects that you used after the "jumping" when following the rapids... could you give a hint on how to do that? Thanks in advance mate!

I use Adobe Premiere Pro

Those were just really fast jump cuts done the same as the jumping when following the rapids. It was a pain to do..

Jump Cut: Lay your clip on the timeline and cut out small pieces of the clip to the beat so it quickly jumps to farther frame.

This video should help you see how I did it

We don't live there anymore but try to get back a few times a year. It's a pretty easy location to miss

I found this site not too long ago for music. They do ask for a small monthly subscription of $15 but I think it's worth it..
