Sacred Valley | PERU

Travelling through the Sacred Valley (Urubamba Valley) of the Incas along the Peruvian Andes was a trip I won't forget for a long time! Flying into the high altitude mountains of Cusco we cruised north into the Urubamba valley towards Ollantaytambo where we spent several days following the Urubamba river filming everything from everyday life activities in the fields to the incredible views of Machu Picchu. Some of the other scenes from this short travel film include the Salt Mines of Maras, making traditional chicha (alcohol made from corn), the Wallata & Qhapaq Qulla dances, Pucara bull sculpture, weaving and various traditional offerings to Pachamama.
I was filming various cultural heritage content for @quantumtemple with the very talented filmmaker @KirilDobrev and this is just a short montage from the trip. I hope to find some time to release a behind the scenes in the near future.
A shoutout to Dan Deuschle for creating this epic track, I love being being able to create something specifically for an edit and working with Dan is always a fun process.

This guy does not miss 👏🏻 That was one hell of a trip dude, looking forward to the next!

[@bryn]

I'm ready for the next one dude!!

[@mikeydelacruz7973]

Holy smokes! This is jaw dropping. You guys are amazing!

[@turnleftrighthere2605]

👏👏👏

[@DanielDeuschle]

never misses!

[@itstommysWorld_]

The dream team 🫶🏻

[@ashikmcr7806]

This man's music choice and sound design is unmatched in this industry 🔥, love how he shows the place and culture rather than just showing the "cool things" travel influencers do.

[@bryn]

I'm never sure if people are going to enjoy this style of content but i'm stoked to hear there are people like you enjoying it!

[@ashikmcr7806]

​@@bryn you are an inspiration for me man. I really want to make films like this, like showing the beauty of the place, the people and culture but because of consuming all the "trendy" contents i often forget what I wanna create. When I see your work like this, it is like a reminder to me that I want to make films like this.

[@FahadRakin]

@@bryn bro i can sold myself for the music choice and how you represent a place and it's culture. still the video you made about my country Bangladesh is best forever. just don't stop making videos bro. want more travel films from you. for me you're the biggest inspiration in my whole travel filming career.

[@andimoraru5539]

I don't see how the music theme is relevant. It has nothing to do with the culture ❤

[@TalesofTowhid]

Very true! Watching his video on Bangladesh, just opened my eyes.

[@etoiledemer99]

THANK YOU for capturing my country so beautifully! I had to drop everything I was doing to see this video

[@marcoghiroshi]

Mr. Bryn North: THE GENIUS. The only one able to describe the life of a country using the most incredibly simple yet ingeniously captured images and sounds. Another MASTERPIECE. You deserve the best.

[@jobgrotebeverborg4952]

Absolute masterpiece. I love how the storytelling is so clear and easy to follow while the pace is so high. Most travel videos are either high paced, but quite chaotic or very slow paced and filled with 120fps slow motion footage to make it look 'cinematic'

[@gititharpaz2509]

This is UNREAL! Literally the best travel video I've seen on KZbin!

[@KeeganBenn]

Not many travel films give me chills anymore... but holy damn! This was a refreshing blast! I've never seen Peru like this before, but the way that you combined colour, sound and composition to deliver this wonderful masterpiece... heck. Saving this one for later! 😉

[@rosendovilla970]

Aaaaaahhh ¡Que belleza! la edición, las tomas, el diseño de audio, el ritmo, lo majestuoso del lugar, la gente. Es como estar ahí. ¡Felicidades!

[@JulioCarvajal]

The level of storytelling you got is unreal Bryn. Probably my fav Travel video of Peru. Congrats on such an amazing work

[@mohsenmoghaddas6406]

you are not a simple person who makes film, you are inspiration to me to go out and shoot thank you so much for all you have done to this day , hope to see more films from you

[@dickielarue1451]

Spent month in Peru back in 2015...The Journey there totally changed my life...Very Powerful Positive Energy in this Area...I am totally grateful to those that shared the blessings and knowledge of such an Sacred place on this Planet...Blessings and Positive Energy from Portugal...😉😇🙏🇵🇪🇵🇹✌️

[@VideoLife_FPV_Wild]

I must say that I am absolutely in awe of the masterpiece you have created with this video. Your eye for detail and ability to capture the essence of the Sacred Valley of the Incas is simply breathtaking. Your shots of the everyday life activities in the fields, the Salt Mines of Maras, and the traditional chicha-making process are truly mesmerizing. Your inclusion of the Wallata and Qhapaq Qulla dances, the Pucara bull sculpture, weaving, and various traditional offerings to Pachamama truly showcase the rich culture and history of the area. The way you have presented these scenes is nothing short of remarkable. Your skill as a filmmaker is evident in every frame of this video. Your use of music and sound effects perfectly complement the visuals and create a sense of immersion that transports the viewer to the Sacred Valley itself. Your attention to detail and dedication to your craft is truly commendable. In short, I am deeply impressed by your work and I can say without hesitation that this video is a true work of art. Thank you for sharing your vision with the world and allowing us to experience the beauty of the Sacred Valley through your lens.

Absolutely sublime.... Truly amazing .... The people, the nature, all in one ....

It's amazing to see there are people on the other side of the world who shares so many similarities with people from my own culture and home (Himalayas). This is so beautiful... It shows how similar yet unique every culture and its people are. Would love too experience this myself someday. :)

Dude I've never seen my city captured in a video like this, such a beautiful and cinematic production. Every frame is a work of art. The time and effort required to create something like this must be as big as your passion for cinematography. I'm glad the youtube algorithm recommended your video to me. The man at the beginning of the video, Jaime Araoz, was my teacher of arts in school, he is a great person.
