My wife and I shot this 5 minute short "film" about hunting last year. It started out as a poem that I worked on and completed while on stand hunting here in Georgia. It was our first time attempting a project this immense and having our 2 small children with us during nearly every outing made it even more of a challenge. In hindsight, there are many things I would do differently today. Some of the clips would have coincided with the poem better could I have had the means to travel to wilder country. It was also my first time editing audio. Some have told me the poem is hard to hear in a few places. You can find it in the description if there's a certain line or word you can't make out. Anyways, I hope it resonates with some of you. Most of my videos are goofy and playful but this project came straight from my heart. *But The Wild Lives In Me (a short film) - YouTube Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

Great short film. My only criticism would be that the audio needs to be clearer,it is such a well-worded poem it deserves to be heard. Absolutely incredible writing,really speaks to the true feelings of an outdoors-man.
Great video! I really enjoyed it. The fire helps tie us to our hunting ancestors. I would have liked to see a flint arrowhead in there somewhere. The narration was good,but for me the music was a bit too loud and drowned out some of the words. And (really nit picky) at one point you draw your bow and when the scene changed I expected to see a deer or some other prey, but it went directly to children playing which gave me a start as if the bow was aimed at the children. That was obviously not the intention, but others may be similarly disconcerted. The cooking of game was a strong image and I especially liked the coyote/moon scene. The repetition of the theme of not living in the wild ,but the wild living in you was well done and not overstated. Outstanding job!
