This film began as a seemingly simple idea- to create a travel film driven by sound. In film, creative decisions are almost always made based on visuals, with sound being added in accordance to what is seen on screen. So, what if we flipped it? Choosing the PNW for its auditory density and character, I set off to create a travel film driven by audio.
Through planning, shooting, and editing, creative decisions were made based on sound- what do you need to hear to understand the story? Which sounds characterize the Pacific Northwest? This approach to filmmaking was unique from any other I’ve experienced, and after 9 months I couldn’t be more proud of the result. I hope this film inspires you to consider sound design with intention and listen closely the next time you travel.

Sir Which camera used in this vedio 😊

[@Smart_Scrutiny]

I'm totally speechless too good

[@fabioschack]

Can someone help me making my videos better? Like my last video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5mWmGR_mJKHe5o (give me some advices)

[@justhuman2972]

Which camera is used bro ?

[@Ournotsoperfectlife]

Absolutely blown away at the quality of this piece. Aidin - it has been a PLEASURE to have stumbled upon your channel. Subbed, and will now proceed to binge watching and studying your work. 100% top-shelf solid. Can compete with any creator on the entire YT platform.

[@bbilal111]

Can’t believe we’re in a time where something of this quality is on social media. Amazing film.

[@speygeek]

There's so much to talk about, after my first viewing here's what impressed me the most: 0:15 we're dreaming and then boom, we're awake. 0:35 ... no words, just epic. 0:18 feels like the millenium falcon! 1:31 if the drone through the house was not epic enough here's through a friggin jet engine... my jaw dropped. 2:02 again we're waking of a dream, so it was all a dream?!? 2:53 that transition from the feets walking into music is just so sooo crisp! 4:03 composition goodness here!!! 4:14 a big change of pace, everything is slowed down, we're waking up from our tent, was it ALL a dream? Thank you for making this, I will definitely re-watch a couple of times.

[@benbeattie4609]

This is one of the single best pieces of cinematography I have ever seen. Pure, creative genius and utterly inspirational!

[@AidinRobbins]

Thanks so much! Appreciate that immensely 🙌

[@WesleyProductions]

The reason that this is one of my favorite travel films is because most travel films are clips of people doing awesome things but in this one I felt like it told a whole story. it was really awesome, Aidin! Keep it up!

[@RoccoGermani]

Where do I even begin with this one... Holy cow. The immersion is simply unmatched. The sound design was so on point and crisp... The shots were serene, with glorious colors and incredible composition. And the editing... Holy cow dude, everything on this adds up to be nothing short of incredible. You never fail to amaze. Thank you for being such an inspiration to filmmakers everywhere! I'm gonna go and watch this again like 50 more times, probably even more.

The amount of raw content created through meticulous shooting and after that rendering all those selected scenes...themes...sound effects....with a photographic intuition could be one hell of an absorbing process....
