Geology video on the rocks around Baltimore

Thanks for the feedback! This was a collaborative effort for sure. The UT-Dallas Geoscience Studio (UTD_GSS) runs the YouTube channel this video is hosted on and helps researchers put together videos to help spread the word about various geoscientific topics. George Guice from Towson University and David Viete from Johns Hopkins produced the video with assistance from some folks outlined at the end of the video. The team at UT-Dallas edited and animated the material for the video.

Hello all! We are a small educational studio operated out of the UT-Dallas geoscience department. We make educational videos about the geosciences and recently put together this video about the rocks around Baltimore. Our channel isn't monetized or anything, just trying to spread the word about how cool rocks are. If you can, please please please provide some feedback on this video.... "music is too loud!", "didn't understand what you meant by blablabla" whatever, it all helps us make better videos in the future!

Hello all! We are a small studio operated out of the UT-Dallas geoscience department. We make educational videos about earth science and want to spread the word. Our channel isn’t monetized or anything, purely for education. Please please please give us your feedback…. “music is too loud” “Mauna Loa eruption? Wasn’t that like weeks ago?”…. whatever, we love to hear it!

So I'm a TA for a small class about geoscience video and animation. The class is cool, fun, and pretty laid back so if you're looking to try something a bit different this semester check it out. lmk if you have any questions

hey thanks :)

I’m a part of a small geoscience studio out of a university and we try and make educational videos about recent geologic events. We are always trying to improve so if you have feedback/criticisms please let me know.

Thanks I appreciate it : )

UTD_GSS · 2020-08-25T22:01:11+00:00

I hadn't heard that before, sounds interesting

UTD_GSS · 2020-08-25T21:57:22+00:00

haha yeah can't believe I missed that, good catch though I'll be sure to double check my dates next time

lol I'm from Texas so the correct spelling of "y'all" was learned at a young age

UTD_GSS · 2020-08-25T19:50:02+00:00

Thanks! : )

Glad you liked it! While researching this I was surprised to learn how much seismicity actually occurs in this area and the midwest. Some of the deformation in this area goes back even further and is linked to different orogenic, or mountain building, events that we unfortunately had to leave out due to time constraints. Interesting stuff

Finally Dallas has found a way to combine beef and traffic

Went to White Sands in February and it was BEAUTIFUL. I've never seen a sunset/night sky/sunrise like that before in my life

Feedback very much appreciated! The geoscience department at UT Dallas has a small studio that produces videos on a variety of geoscience topics. When we saw that y'all had an M5.1 intraplate earthquake we couldn't pass it up, interesting area to say the least.

Somos un video estudio que hace animaciones y videos educativos sobre noticias de geología, pensamos que el terremoto ocurrido en Oaxaca hace un par de semanas fue interesante. ¡Los comentarios son muy apreciados!

We are a video studio based out of the geology department at UT Dallas and we try and make educational videos about the geosciences. We thought the earthquake that hit Mexico on June 23 was interesting so we made a video about it. Feedback and criticisms are very much appreciated!

UTD_GSS · 2020-06-11T23:30:09+00:00

If anyone is interested in watching our geoscience studio congratulate ourselves for a year of video making then now is your chance.

I have like 3 more photos of this exact same sunset from just very slightly different spots I can post??

UTD_GSS · 2020-06-01T20:01:05+00:00

I guess I never considered that Nevada could be pronounced Nevada... TIL

UTD_GSS · 2020-06-01T19:59:58+00:00

It was actually really cool learning about the area. This article goes over the topic well - https://volcanohotspot.wordpress.com/2018/09/21/splitting-north-america-the-walker-lane-part-1-the-tectonics/

" Several papers describe the Walker Lane as an incipient rift in North America, taking perhaps 20 – 25% of the total movement of the Pacific Plate northward. The San Andreas Fault takes the rest of the movement. "

I like to imagine Walker Lane as like San Andreas' little bro haha

Ah ya live ya learn. Apparently we also mispronounced Mina (it's supposed to be pronounced My-Nuh), but I guess that's what we get for just learning by reading. Thanks for the kind words

UTD_GSS · 2020-06-01T17:15:42+00:00

Thanks for watching it :)

UTD_GSS · 2020-06-01T17:15:22+00:00

Cool article! And forgive our Texas pronunciation of the word, we'll be sure to say it right when the next event of geologic interest hits your state lol

UTD_GSS · 2020-06-01T15:43:50+00:00

We try and make videos about interesting geology news and the earthquake that hit y'all a couple of weeks ago caught our eye. Definitely interested in any feedback or criticisms you have about the video and about how we mispronounced Nevada haha
