    ---------------------
    It’s hard to believe it’s been five years since I made my first Vorticity film. The one goal I had that year was to get a tornado on time-lapse for the first time ever. That happened and it’s been a wild, incredible ride since. The storms I’ve witnessed have been moving, stunning and a few of them, legendary (at least to us chasers!).
    The 2021 season was no different. The number of supercells we saw and the level of structure was absolutely amazing. From Sudan, Texas to Malta, Montana…the chases were a blast and the time-lapses I caught were just fantastic fun. So many supercells, so many chases…I think I counted about 27 days we chased from late April to late June. Definitely one of the more active springs in recent years. It was good enough that I felt I could put out another worthy entry in the Vorticity series, so hopefully you agree!
    I worked once again with Péter Nánási on the music, it's 100% custom for this film and it's so dang good! Appreciate his artistry and vision, not to mention always busting these out quickly for me! Hit him up if you need a score for your film!
    My buddy Brett Wright was along for the ride most of the spring and we’ve made a pretty darn good team I must say. He started helping me on tours a few years back and since then we’ve just gotten really honed in on our chasing strategies. I’m so thankful we’ve been able to do this together and am so grateful to have his help with the driving, the forecasting and decision-making.
    As always, I’d like to thank all the supporters over on my Patreon page! If you're not a member yet but enjoyed this film, I encourage you to join up. I'm so honored by the folks over there who spend their hard-earned cash to support the work I do, it means so much! They all got to see this film a week ago, so there are some fun perks!
    Finally, to my wife Jina and my kiddos…thank you as always for bearing with me during the crazy few months I’m gone chasing for huge chunks at a time. I miss you always and it’s definitely getting harder to be away from you all. Being married to you Jina is the best thing I’ve ever done, and I thank you for your constant support all year long, but especially these few months. And to the kids, you all are so sweet and kind to ask me how chasing is going, not to mention joining me this past June on a three day chase adventure…you all mean the world to me and it’s a joy being your dad!
    I hope everyone enjoys this film! Some epic storms in there, some bucket list moments like the Sudan tornado with unbelievable structure above it, or the incredible quadruple downburst that ends the film…I enjoy so much capturing these scenes, these moments, and sharing them with the world. I know storms can be scary, and deadly, and definitely can be devastating for many people…but they are also beautiful and mesmerizing…and hopefully that feeling is conveyed in the films I put together.
    Everything in this movie is time-lapse photography, captured at various intervals, entirely on Canon cameras and lenses. I use LR Timelapse, Adobe Lightroom, Premiere Pro and After Effects to put it all together. The cameras were two 5DSRs and an R5. All scenes were captured across about nine states in the central United States.

I am overwhelmed by how many reactions and emotions well up in the course of viewing them... THANK YOU (and those who support you) for the incredible dedication in bringing such amazing scenery to us! This artwork is nearly as timeless as the weather itself-

    This is AMAZING!!! Excellent footage & a really cool soundtrack. Our whole family loves storms. My dad would take us to a higher area on a county road when storms were coming & we’d all sit on the car or in the back of the truck & watch the clouds & lightening, until time to take shelter, of course. Nature’s drive-in, right?! To this day l still take pics of clouds & videos of storms moving in. My husband (not a native Texan) gets so frustrated with me when he’s thinking it’s time to shelter in the bathroom & l’m outside taking pictures. 😂🤷‍♀️ Thanks for posting! Hitting the share button…

    Another masterpiece. That microburst was a fitting end. Saw a side view made the final cut as well. Just watching this I realized I couldn't ever do it because if I saw 9:18 coming at me I'd most likely die waiting too long to get out of the way.

  • @lemonrev
    @lemonrev Před 2 lety +1

    Thank you once again for the Short sweet film, What i took away with this is that rain comes either before and after storms, not during the mid section, Also lightning tends to be in the center of the storm rather than outside of it, but it can and will strike out side of that.
    LOVED the shot in the evening / House scene.
    All those different storm types, its always interesting to watch in time speed, and see all the ways air does what it does best.
    Thank you again for sharing.
