Sandhill Crane Migration Fall 2008: Archaic Heights - A Student Production

Having grown up with cranes, this video makes me emotional how can we have such a wonderful planet and so little regard for its magic.....

[horsedesigns]

Everyone I know has very high regard for the planet and wildlife. It's become normal in these times to make everyone feel doomed and to spread the gloom and doom. This behavior casts little regard for all the good in us and makes the planet a more negative place.

thanks for your positive comment...I am optomistic for the planet....

Kaylee,

This doesn't suck. I think you capture the essesne of the cranes in flight. I loved the music you choose and it showed the birds in thier own enviorment. I loved it and if you want any more input I can foward this link to my own film club and see what they say.

Lovely imagery and great shots, it really gives a sense of the animals, place and even the temperature. Unlike the other comments, I thought the music was just ok; the second piece is quite good and suitable, but the first one I didn't like to much, I thought a classical piece might suit better. But that maybe just because I am not too fond of the sort of 80's syntesizer music.

The white text is a bit cloudy and hard to read- maybe switch to a higher contrast? The music compliments the depicted movements and landscapes, and the whole thing is put together beautifully. You should be very hapy with this.

very majestic

Very rarely is so majestic a component of the real world presented on the Internet. This piece of film far outstrips the normal expectations of youtube.

Nice use of imagery. The Music fit with the videos at the time well.

This was very well done and the music and wildlife shots combined to a truly breathtaking combination of imagery. The director managed to capture not only the subject (the cranes) but their habitat in depth them personality. Even with the low youtube resolution this was pretty magical.
