Travel Videos: ‘Density’ – An Aerial View Of India
Filmed and Edited by: Matt Horspool
After watching the new ‘Extraction’ Movie on Netflix, I was inspired to go back and piece together this small number of aerial clips I took during my project in India, 2019.
Never before have I seen such density and organised chaos in one single country. I was also totally blown away at how rich the culture and landscapes were. Yet, there were moments (desert scene) where it felt as if we had been transported from India to another country, as there were literally no other people around. A stark contrast to the cities.
