Austin – It’s Still in Texas from LindsayT on Vimeo.

Join me for my first travel video in a series I hope to do over the next year as I embark on a 6 month around-the-world-trip. Before I set sail, I’ve been circling the US to see friends I haven’t seen in a while!

First up is Austin, Texas. I was there December 9th – 16th, and while I had been there once before, I saw the city with totally new eyes. It’s terribly charming, creative and inspiring. It’s also filling!  You can’t eat enough food there!

For that reason, my mom says I’ll never be a skinny girl because this video was all about the food. Even the signage was about food!

Playful Austin from Lindsay Tabas on Vimeo.

I started to put together my video on Austin yesterday. It should be my first “here’s what I see” in a series from my pending 6-month voyage. While I’m 75% finished with the more “reporter-like” video, I found myself compelled to set these bird shots to Bibio’s Weekend Wildfire. Once I started down that road, I ended up with this. It’s definitely experimental, but a friend of mine made a comment that I like quick transitions and short clips, so for this I slowed it down.

Is it any good? That’s for you to tell me.
