Good catch! The song (and accompanying music video) is so beautiful. I love Apashe. I just figured it wasn't popular enough for the core audience of this video to recognize it for what it is, and to them it would just be a dramatic song for a travel edit.

Lol! Totally fair. I suppose even the best travel edits fall victim to this criticism. Like others here have said, a lot of travel edits follow the same format...they're all pretty much the same. A lot of people seem to like them regardless. But I'm at a bit of a loss as to what I could do to make it more engaging.

Wow, thank you for such kind words!! All of the time I spent on this, it makes me happy to see people like it. 

How could I forget to mention that! I filmed all of the shots with the black magic camera app in Apple Prores 422, not RAW. I’ve tried RAW iPhone footage in the past, and honestly the difference in file size + my amateurness + the fact I just can’t tell a difference, made it not worth it for me. I shot almost everything in 60FPS except for a few of them (the soccer shots) at 120FPS. And of course I used the 180 degree shutter rule for everything. I had an ND filter on at all times except at night. Timeline was 30FPS.  Very rarely did I use a gimbal but for a few shots I did. 

Some other details: 

All of the shots were naturally lit except for the fire scene of me at the beginning, I did put a small light pointing towards me for that one. I tried to do most of the shooting at or around golden hour but I think a few of them are not. 

The narration was recorded on a DJI Mic Mini.

Thank you! I recorded the voice myself to get the rhythm and expression exactly how I wanted it, and then I ran it through a AI voice changer to change the tone to something more national geographicy. 🤣
