It turns out that the internet connection in Stone Town isn't much better than it was in North Zanzibar, but I did manage to get one of the two videos that I've finished uploaded to Vimeo. There is a link to it on FishTalesFilms.com in the "Shot On RED section". The video's title is Green Africa and it includes sample footage from Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda. The National Parks and Forests in this region are generally above the level of the great rift valley and at a high enough altitude (7500 ft or more) that they are cool and green compared to the Savannas on the floor of the rift valley. This film was mastered in 4K on RED and has been scaled down to a size that is presentable on the internet. Most of the footage was shot with a Sigma 50-500 lens (Bigma) and a Sigma 17-70 lens. This is a rough cut and will be updated at a later date. Editing 4k in the field on a MacBook Pro can be challenging and time consuming. Also, I don't have access to some nice footage shot at Nakuru that is on the disks of a failed Drobo Mini, so I won't be able to access that footage until September. At that time, I'll re-edit and upload a cleaner version, but for now, this will have to do.
