THE FOREST - A Time-Lapse Journey Through the Forgotten Norway 4K

NEW INSTAGRAM: morten.rustad
"The Forest" takes us on a journey through the deep forests and aims to shine light on a landscape in Norway one usually does not see in the tourist magazines. This is portrayed through the magical night, mystical morning and adventurous day. Set to the words of Theodor Kittelsen the film gives associations with the traditional, Norwegian fairytales in a modern visual and auditive setting.
The soundtrack (named "Urskog") is custom composed for this film by Jogeir. Check out his Facebook page ( / jogeirmusic ) and Soundcloud ( / jogeirmusic . Vocals on the track is done by Katrine Ødegaard Stenbekk. Mixed and mastered by Tony Draper. These guys were also the creators of the soundtrack from my last video, "NORWAY - A Time-Lapse Adventure". The voice over is done by the brilliant Norwegian actor Ingar Helge Gimle.
The film is mainly recorded in or nearby Oslo.
Crew on this video:
Morten Rustad - Photographer, director, editor, color work
Anders Graham - Producer
Jogeir Daae Mæland - Composer
Ingar Helge Gimle - Voice
Håvard Halden Sethre - Voice recording and mix (Universal Sound AS)

Never ever give up! 💕

[@ianellis9914]

I feel the same way. I myself am also a photographer and all I ever wanted was to leave civilisation and go somewhere where I can finally breathe for once. I wake up and it’s the same thing over and over again. It’s a never ending circle of routine and the only thing I want is a way out

[@muscarius]

I'm in love with forests. So glad to come across this video. Brilliant job... my compliments

[@IamJohnCarter]

I really want to be able to make some star time lapses like what you've done. But I fear I won't be able to, as I only have a GH4. Even with the speed booster and my good lens I'm not sure if I will be able to make it work. Beautiful work. All of your films are amazing.

[@teddytibbs2032]

John Carter always go for your dream brother. Regardless of whether it works or not, try it and see. I hope to see your work soon
