Wadi Rum – A Majestic Landscape

This video about a part of the vast landscape of Wadi Rum is the second of four time lapse videos shot in Jordan this July. The whole project was shot and edited for the Jordan Tourism Board.

Some background: Shooting the desert in the mid of July was quite a challenge. It was very hot, even at night. And it was quite dusty. During the 2 days of shooting I’ve tried to capture images of the majestic rock formations but also people enjoying desert live for a glimpse of a few hours on a jeep trip or on the back of a camel. A highlight was the balloon trip shown at the end of the clip.
