Storm Cloud Time Lapse

Leave a comment

This footage was shot in one day. We had a huge number of thunderstorms come and go. Flood warnings were also blaring non-stop.

I live on a high point in our neighborhood, and we just moved back into my house after rebuilding it since April 28, 2014. It has taken over a year to recover from a record setting F4 tornado that took 600 homes and 10 lives in our town numbering 6000. For the full story (pics and video), be sure to Go HERE.

The landscape is completely different and the storm paths have definitely changed. I actually love stormy weather and mother nature fascinates me, but I have a new respect for her wild destructive power. When storm clouds approach, my appreciation remains but with added caution.

I by no means am a pro at videography or photography, but I love capturing beauty and it’s faster than trying to draw or paint it – ha!

I hope you enjoyed the short video, and I look forward to your comments and questions – hit me below!

Tips on Shooting Time Lapse:

I use the Panasonic AG HVX200 video camera with an FS100 drive attached to it. It makes it so easy by simply setting your time lapse using the drive.  Here is a bonus video 🙂

Tornado Damage Update Lousiville MS June 2015 on a Ninja

Leave a comment

Over 1 year later, after April 28, 2014 when an F4 changed our lives, we’re still putting things back together. We’re also discovering that glass shards and debris tend to find the most unique places to hide!

Regardless, another step forward was made this week as I got my damaged Ninja all fixed up. I decided to take it out with my GoPro Hero3 (helmet mount) and do a quick update video on the tornado damage in my immediate area: Richardson Rd., Henry Moore St., Wood St., McCullough Rd., and Hwy 14/E. Main St.

Take a ride with me as we survey the changes since “the storm” as we call it. Many houses are simply gone, a lot of us are rebuilding, and yes – we’re not done! We have about a month until we plan to be back in our house still being repaired.
