Chasing the Storm

Chasing the Storm is the labor of love and the results of my 2018 chase season with 14 days in May and June along with a day in August. We caught storms and footage in 7 different states, tested the rock climbing abilities of a Jeep Renegade in New Mexico, took a RFD tossed softball to the windshield in Wyoming, slept in a few random Wal-Mart parking lots as well as some of the sketchiest motels money could buy. In a word, 2018 was perfect! I spent the last year committed to improving my craft and I think this movie shows that growth compared to my fledgling effort Passion in the Pursuit from 2017. On the technical side of things, all sequences were shot with my Nikon D500 and Tokina 11-16mm f2.8. Editing with LRTimelapse and Lightroom along with Shotcut (because I'm still cheap!). The music is Fight For This Planet by Bobby Cole provided by Audioblocks.com. Special thanks to the 2 guys I chase with for always being willing to teach me the art of chasing and forecasting and giving me the time to get the images that I love to get.
