Best Viewed in Full Screen (with scaling turned off)From meandering streams and forest-dwelling organisms to the grandeur of high mountains above tree-line, this short film wanders through the contrasting wilderness of Alaska, North Carolina, Georgia and California. WANDERMENT is the result of a 12-month collection of 4K time-lapse sequences captured while backpacking. Countless miles of hiking in the Appalachian Mountains and adventurous backpacking in California and Alaska provided no shortage of opportunity to capture the planet’s poetry in motion. Further juxtaposing these contrasting landscapes is the use of both color and black and white techniques throughout the film. Each time-lapse sequence, comprised of hundreds of still images, represents a chance to share these reflective moments far away from urban epicenters. It offers a simple reminder to step outside with your friends and family to experience and respect nature first-hand.Produced by The Upthink Lab [Atlanta, Georgia] - upthink.tv/timelapseCinematography & Direction by Doug UrquhartIn-studio Funghi Cinematography by Doug Urquhart and Erik HuberFilm Score by Curtis Schweitzer - curtisschweitzer.com/Color Correction & Editing by Doug UrquhartHigh five to all my friends who shared the path less traveled and hauled extra equipment along the way:Karen Urquhart, Guy Thorsby, Chris McClure, Greg GunterA majority of this film was shot using a 3D printed motion control dolly by Doug Urquhart.
