  • I liked it very much, thanks for sharing your experience us! I think it would've been great if you had some footage in there that showed the landscape and environment surrounding the festival too, as most of the footage you have here is up close and it gets pretty full on. Great film though.

  • Good point, I have some others films that i made in Mali with some wider shot's on my channel take a look. Peace

  • Nice video Tom! Was the pantomime fish something to do with the Dogon people?

    Oh.. and i swear that's a status quo cover they are dancing to at 8:09 ;-p

  • Its a fisherman thing, I know that much. Dogans were at the fest some of them live in Segou all year and others traveled from the bush.

  • Turn the volume up!

  • Great stuff! What have you shot this on? It wasn't the Z1 was it?? Cheers. Lucas

    Ps Have you done Mark Cousins yet?

  • hey man this was the z1 , no filters no matt box and no special grade or after effects. yes i interview Mark in cardiff soon
