The Ruby-throated Hummingbird

2015

I made a mini documentary about hummingbirds. I took a bunch of cool slow motion hummingbird footage and some close up live action footage. When I started putting it together, a friend suggested I add narration. Liking the idea, but not having the time or energy to put together some hummingbird research, I hired a voice actor to read the wikipedia article on ruby-throated hummingbirds.

A mini documentary.
Narrated by Rik Tyler.
Filmed and edited by Philip Wels.
Special thanks to Amanda Quist and BLC Studios
Shot on location in New Ulm, MN.
Script modified from wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruby-throated_hummingbird
