The Grand Documentary of 2021

| 3 views

From more than 235 GB of footage (1409 short clips per year), I was able to produce about 48 minutes long documentary.  As every year - the documentary is made in a style of a home video, filmed with a DSLR camera, DJI Mavic drone and since April I've replaced the DSLR camera with a mobile phone.
