Stomp around with us as we explore Rhyolite, a ghost town in Nevada. See the original train station and guess how may years the walls of the old bank building has left. Sing 100 bottles of beer on the wall as you count the number of bottles (beer, wine or hard liquor) in the recently restored bottle house. This sequence was shot with a Canon HFS-100 and edited in Adobe Premier CS5.

  • Hello, nice video, I actually lived inside the depot in the early 80's, upstairs south end. The general store was the HD&LD Porter store. The Town had 28,000 people at it's peak. You also show the School, next to the bank.

  • @bheagle65 WOW! You must be an expert about the area. I was there for two hours one afternoon and loved it. I wish I could have entered the station to see what the interior looked like. A grand old building it is! Thanks so much for watching and commenting on my video!

  • If I were to shoot a movie their is it on gov. property? Permits?

  • @happyfoxproductions Thanks for asking. I believe it is on property overseen by the Bureau of Land Management. You may want to check with your local BLM office for more information.

  • Thanks for asking! This particular sequence was shot with a Canon Vixia HFS100 HD camera with a Canon directional stereo microphone, DM-100 set at 120 degrees. I routinely use my Bogen tripod with a fluid head to provide an enhanced viewer experience.

  • I’m glad you enjoyed the video and commented. It is always fun to stomp around ghost towns and envision what life was like. It was a simpler time indeed. You may also enjoy a video I shot at Garnet, MT, a ghost town a few miles from my hometown. We visit Garnet every few years.
