Hello, steemit! I am continuing my story about filming in Asia. In this post i will tell you about my experience in Vietnam.
After shooting in Laos we went to Vietnam - Da Lat. We arrived in different atmosphere...everything around seems to be very chaotic.
Rules on the road are just crazy! Everyone is driving on own trajectory!
The weather was way colder than in Laos. In Vietnam was around +15 C during the day and +8 C- at night.
Most of the time we spent in small villages , where local farmers are growing coffee.
In this area of Vietnam - Da Lat, developed agriculture. They are growing here strawberries, coffee, flowers, cabbage , cauliflower and ect. Because in this area the climate is way cooler than the other parts of Vietnam.
We were filming here 2 days with drone. But in the end of first day, because of the wind, local drone operator lost control of the drone and it crashed against electrical cables (((
Damages were not so big. So, our operator fixed the drone in the end of the day.
On next morning we went to film some beautiful nature around Da Lat.
And next to very nice waterfall , drone operator lost control and the drone crashed again against the palm tree very far away from us.
The battery was still alive , so we went with GPS spot of drone to look for it. We spent few hours by searching...was very hard to see anything...because drone crashed in the middle of jungle on the big hill. In the end we found out that the drone is on the other side of the river and it will be impossible to get it ((( So, drone gone and whole video material of the day gone also. ((((
Afterwords i made some filming from my camera to have at least some video from this beautiful nature of Vietnam.
Afterwards we went to another village to film harvesting process of coffee and local life.
Local people were so kind and smiling . They were very hospitable.
Here they are helping coffee to dry and removing bad beans.
We were at female community where women almost are doing all work , and man is serving them.
I love colors of them clothes. It was so bright.
I will upload more photos in my next post from this trip.
Thank you for your attention.
