Grosse Point Lightstation

This short video is from a shoot we did early morning last week to fill in some footage for a section of The Sweetwater Seas - North America’s Great Lakes documentary. In this section we will talk about traveling around the Great Lakes, and as this footage captures, some of the lighthouses along the Great Lakes.

It was a cold morning after an unusual snowstorm on Halloween. The cold - around 25 degrees - and the early morning light made views of the top of the lighthouse very interesting with the frost on the glass. We also shot from the ground of the lighthouse and the waves. The sand was frozen already so our footsteps barely registered in the sand. The waves we beautiful in the morning light and we shot some slow motion clips of the waves as they rolled in.

Enjoy,
