Filming music video shorts in the Cleveland metroparks. Part 1

If you live in Cleveland, Ohio then you know about our metroparks! http://www.clemetparks.com/
If you are not from or have not been to Cleveland, let me tell you about our little escape from the city. Imagine your city, any major city then try to imagine a valley full of trees and a flowing river that sits 500 ft below the city. There is one major road "valley parkway" that starts about 2 miles south of Lake Erie and winds back and forth, with the natural geography, southwest and eventually southeast all the way to Akron. It's like the first subway, in the way that you can enter or exit the valley at numerous points along it's path and follow the major road to get from point a to b. But, while enjoying the most scenic route. Of course the valley is for way more than scenic drives. There are tons of organizations and hiking groups, activities, music, swimming, chilling, notorious frisbee, dog walks, soccer games, sun bathing, people running,biking, couples walking together, stopping by the swings, fishing, picnics,late night drives, I could go on. So these are the metroparks, they are great and I live 2minutes from one entrance way. Down a hill with about a 45 degree angle for just a minute, immediately surrounded by nature, trees older much older then us reach up to the sky,as I descend the hill, then a quick turn onto valley parkway. From here, for the past few days I have met with a friend, amazingly talented with his video cam. We have shot some amazing nighttime footage of me playing original songs in a few different locations. Just
finished shooting some tonight( the waterfalls in Berea). Thank you the metroparks for
providing such an inspiring location. Video coming soon. Listen to original songs now at music.glassaudrey.com
