    this was wondeful giovanni. i truly loved the music choice in that you didn’t have music going the whole time, which made the silence stand out in such a pleasing and calming way. i just watched this video with my girlfriend and we both truly enjoyed experiencing your work. u have a new subscriber!!

    Beautiful stuff. The cinematography, sound design and editing is all so well put together! Thanks for commenting on my post, it's great to find like-minded creators out there. Just as a side note, I'm putting together a little documentary about nature, and was wondering if you'd be open to using any of these shots in the movie! I think they'd go really well. Pat.
