Jungle Vlog

Rare clip of a ritual to bless the ancestral spirits at the biggest Kapok tree I've ever seen in my life. Most people of the Upper Suriname River believe in a traditional Afro-Surinamese religion. The Kapok tree (Ceiba pentandra) plays a huge role in this religion and is like the "Mother tree". It is said that the ancestral spirits reside and guard this tree which is mostly closeby to a jungle village. Like a birthday, there is a special day in the year when all family members come together and celebrate and consult their ancestors with many different rituals between the roots of the enormous tree. I was not allowed to film the rituals, but I felt blessed that I was invited to come by and to make a very short clip of the happening. The family also allowed me to witness a few rituals which was truly amazing to experience. Some were calm and others were very intense with rhythms and beautiful chantings.  #DJI #Footage #JungleVlog #DJIOSMO #TestFootage #Kapok #Kankantrie #Tree #KapokTree #Winti #AncestralSpirits #OsmoZAxis #ZAXIS #jungle #rainforest #sunset #southamerica #ameriquedusud #ameriquedosul #südamerika #selva #oerwoud #regenwald #wanderlust #osmo #akaso  #suriname #uppersurinameriver #maroon #ritual https://www.instagram.com/p/BsCbSCEjBto/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ejg1h88h4mfe

Sunset at the Upper Suriname River. The hut with the red roof is from jungle resort 'Kwai Kwai' (close to Atjoni). The clip was filmed with a DJI OSMO Plus fixed with a clamp on the boat. I am controlling the camera with a KAMARAR cable extension. On my head I am wearong an AKASO EK7000 action camera. In the beginning of the video you can see the set-up. Initialy the OSMO shots were filmed in D-LOG. Do you like the grading. #dji #djiosmo #testfootage #footage #junglevlog #jungle #rainforest #suriname #vlog #uppersurinameriver #surinameriver #akaso #ek7000 #actioncamera #scenery #nature #southamerica #sudamerika #ameriquedusud #ameriquedosul #südamerika #regenwald #selva #oerwoud #jungleriver #jungleresort #junglevillage #sunset #kwaikwai #osmo #dlog https://www.instagram.com/p/BsCWvA3Dlk6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gdkcntq64fbe

Driving down the Upper Suriname River at sunset...This is a render test for my upcoming Jungle Vlog. In this one minute video I am trying for the first time a DJI OSMO fixed with a clamp on a boat. I am controlling the camera with a KAMERAR 2m cable extender. In the beginning of the video you can see the set-up. On my head I am wearing a AKASO EK7000 action camera. Initially the OSMO shots where filmed in D-Log.

Some test footage filmed with the DJI Osmo Plus fixed with a suction mount to the roof of the car. I am controlling the camera with a Kamerar 2m cable extender and my smartphone. Although the jungle road is very rough, the gimbal of the DJI Osmo balances the images wonderfully. I was surprised with the result. What do you think of the stabilization? The clip was filmed in DLog in 1920x1080 at 59 fps. The LUT is the DJI Osmo V1 LTR with some additional saturation and a little tuning of the color curves. #junglevlog #jungleroad #junglemountain #jungle #rainforest #nature #dji #djiosmo #osmo #kamerar #carmount #gimbal #gimbaltest #carmounttest #testfootage #footage #suriname #bergendal #southamerica https://www.instagram.com/p/BrijDJdDFo_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nbjf82h78nnk
