A truly beautiiful video

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

A truly beautiiful video

Post by phuketrichard »

Fantastic!! :good:
Roberto Serrini’s film, CAMBODIA • AERIAL CINEMATOGRAPHY • ROBERTO SERRINI, describes the country in ways we’ve never witnessed before. The video, which features aerial footage of Cambodia, provides a unique perspective on the everyday landscapes and sights that we are used to seeing. However, when viewed from above, a typical day in the country begins to takes on new life. From this height, the world seems bigger, more encompassing and larger than life. From this altitude, our perception of the world is not so limited, or restricted.

Good find! !

I personally think he didn't capture much of anything interesting, it was poorly edited and went downhill towards the last half.

That said, I love these drone vids, especially of Cambodia! Hard to make a bad one. And he also says he's just trying to capture everyday stuff, and that's just what he did, I guess.

I remember it being posted on K440 when it first came out. I think the whole point is to show mundane stuff, only from a different (aerial) perspective.

Yeah, it does what it aims to, I guess.

mundane stuff, village life is what makes Cambodia special in my eyes
not the hostess bars GM loves to frequent.

Zing! Pukhet the pure ofbheart strikes again! Haha, but seriously I found it cool. Unless you've flown in a chopper or ultralight, it's relatively rare to see shots like those of Cambodia. I've seen some when on mountain tops, but it's not the same when you're static. Nothing extraordinary, just different.

I didn't even know there were villages in Cambodia before I saw this video. Thanks for sharing, Richard.
