Could You Live In The Outer Hebrides?
Back in August I spent sometime on the Isle of Lewis and Harris filming my "Lewis and Harris Series" for YouTube. While over there I sat down every day and spoke about how I felt living in such a remote but beautiful landscape. This video is a collection of the thoughts and feelings I gathered while over there, producing a video sure to make you think about modern day life.
So tell me...Could you live in the Outer Hebrides?

The Outer Hebrides | Scotland's Western Isles in 4k | Drone Cinematic
The Scottish Western Isles of the Outer Hebrides are a chain of inter-connected islands, each possessing their own unique character and way of life. The landscapes of these islands vary wildly; from boulder-strewn mountains, shell-sand beaches, flower-covered machair, countless lochs and lochans, vast watery peat bogs, to monuments built by long-forgotten civilizations. The local communities are warm and welcoming - a defining trait of Gaelic island culture.
Filmed over five weeks in the Summer of 2019, this film showcases some of the most dramatic environments and landmarks of the islands. Fourteen Hebridean islands are featured here; Vatersay, Barra, Eriskay, South Uist, North Uist, Benbecula, Baleshare, Grimsay, Berneray, Vallay, Lewis, Harris, Scalpay and Great Bernera.

The Western Isles / The Outer Hebrides - 1941 British Council Film Collection - CharlieDeanArchives
The sinking of the 'Atlantic Queen' and the survival of its crew is supposedly based off a real series of events where the S.S. Richmond Castle was torpedoed in the Atlantic Ocean, and crewman Angus Murray led the survivors' return to the UK in a lifeboat. Curiously, however, the sinking of the S.S. Richmond Castle occurred in August 1942, after The Western Isles was released.
Severe bad weather hampered the initial filming of The Western Isles, and extra funding was required to account for this.
In December 1941, the Ministry of Information stated that The Western Isles should not be distributed abroad, as it was counteractive to war effort. The Minister of Information, Brendan Bracken, personally wrote to the British Council, claiming that the film was "living proof of Goebbels' statem...

No part of this video should be reproduced without permission.
Technical Stuff
The climate of the Outer Hebrides can be very changeable which makes filming with a drone quite challenging. More so than normal photography. I was also mostly wild camping, which meant I had no way of regularly recharging batteries. I had to pick and choose my shots with care and make the best of the conditions available to me.
The most challenging shots were those of the Callanish standing stones. The site is usually busy with tourists during the day, and I wanted to get shots of the stones, not people! After a week of less than perfect conditions, the rain and cloudy conditions gave way to blue skies and I finally got the early morning shot I wanted. Strangely, the shots which required me to climb a mountain were much simpler.
Some shots are less than perfect as weather and lighting conditions are always in flux. Thankfully, I quite enjoy the post-production process.
The hyperlapse footage was the most time consuming to correct. Ideally you want very still conditions in order to get the most "fluid" motion. This is impossible when filming on islands where there is almost always a constant breeze. I used Adobe After Effects to stabilise all the hyperlapse segments (mostly frame-by-frame), as well as some of the other footage. It is far from perfect, but I am happy enough with the results.
Colour correction and grading is an area I have been trying to perfect. I like to try and keep my colours looking as natural as possible but given the limitations (lighting conditions, the hardware, poorly configured settings...) I have had to do some extensive colour correction. For the most part the colours are real, with a slight boost to contrast and saturation.

The sinking of the 'Atlantic Queen' and the survival of its crew is supposedly based off a real series of events where the S.S. Richmond Castle was torpedoed in the
Atlantic Ocean, and crewman Angus Murray led the survivors' return to the UK in a lifeboat. Curiously, however, the sinking of the S.S. Richmond Castle occurred in August 1942, after The Western Isles was released.
Severe bad weather hampered the initial filming of The Western Isles, and extra funding was required to account for this.
In December 1941, the Ministry of Information stated that The Western Isles should not be distributed abroad, as it was counteractive to war effort. The Minister of Information, Brendan Bracken, personally wrote to the British Council, claiming that the film was "living proof of Goebbels' statements that the British are frivolous, or that they are fighting the war to perpetuate a way of living long since outmoded, or that they have lost the intellectual, moral and industrial lead which they once held." The British Council distributed the film nonetheless.
The film also examines the story of Harris Tweed during World War Two.
This film has been made available by the British Council Film Collection for non-commercial research and educational purposes . .

Note: I'm sorry the info boards in the video don't stay up longer. This was one of my first YouTube videos and I honestly made it for ourselves, when we had no subscribers, and didn't think anyone other family would watch. I would change it, but unfortunately YouTube doesn't allow you to re-upload videos.
In August 2019, we travelled from Edinburgh to the Isle of Lewis & Harris in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. There are no words to describe how much we love these islands and their people. We only had a few days in Lewis & Harris, but hopefully this video will give you a good idea of what to expect. Lewis & Harris are incredibly beautiful and completely unspoilt and we must keep it that way.
Please leave no trace or mark behind, except your love and wonder for a very special & magical place.

This week we get to spend some time on the stunning Isle of Barra, where we explore the sleepy town of Castlebay, the wonderful beaches of Vatersay, and the only beach airport in the world. Oh - and have a minor health scare as we paddle out to an uninhabited island. Not far off a standard week for us...
This is the last of our vlogs in the Outer Hebrides, so if you haven't already watched the others theres a playlist for your viewing pleasure - go and take a look.
We have a new Instagram! Find us at @kieran.and.alice
