My son and I are starting to do some YouTube videos geared to people that might be new to the Hills. Hopefully by next years D3WR we will have a lot more out for people to look at. I'm just wondering if we are on the right track to maybe peak someone's interest if they were looking for rides to take. Any input would be appreciated. thanks

Sounds like a great idea. The whole area is beautiful. What is everyday stuff to you will be great for those who have not been to the area before.

Been there many times and there was nothing that we did not like.

Most stuff showing the area does not usually mention Badlands National Park/Wall Drug or Devils Tower Wyoming.

We always go to both with any Black Hills trips.

The pros: Nice camera angles and set-ups. Drone shots nice and not over done. Music in the second video much easier to take than what was in the first one.
The cons: Too may cuts way over 5 seconds has your audience's eyes inventorying the ceiling. No need to show the entire train passing by. Road scenes need crisper editing, remember the 5 second rule. The rock song in the last half of the first video had me fast forwarding.
I look forward to seeing your next efforts.

Thanks for the feedback. I think this endeavor has given us a new respect for those who do this for a living.
