MY INSPIRATION TO MAKE TRAVEL VIDEOS

I have been hooked on making travel videos ever since my good friend Dave Chou made an amazing video to document a trip that I took with him and a group of friends down the Pacific Coast Highway back in 2013!  Rather than taking hundreds of pictures on vacation that I'll likely never look through again, I now prefer to take a bunch of short video clips and stitch them together with music.  The end result is hopefully an entertaining video that helps me relive the best parts of my trip and to share those moments with friends and family.

Below, you'll find a collection of the travel videos that I have made, along with some of Dave's videos that inspired me to get started in the first place.  I want to thank everyone in these videos for helping to make my trips so much fun, and for making these travel videos so funny!  I hope you enjoy!

HOW DO I MAKE THE VIDEOS?

I use Adobe Premiere Pro to make most of these videos because I believe it is easy to use and extremeley powerful.
