“Travel With Me”, is an Ethiopian documentary that I and other film editors created to teach people about the tradition, culture, and history of Ethiopia. Creating this documentary helped me feel much closer to my identity as an Ethiopian and I hope this video inspire others to look at their own culture and background. I created this documentary in a way where people are going on an adventure and seeing, beautiful views that Ethiopia is known for like Axum, its mountains and much more. In this video, you're expected to see, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, which is a capital city, and Tigrai.
In order to create this project, I went on a two-month vacation to Ethiopia where I traveled to Addis Ababa and Tigrai and I visited historical monuments and buildings and interviewed people who are familiar with the history in order to educate myself and my viewers. Creating this project was very rough, when I was in Ethiopia, my camera was stolen on the last day that I was getting back to America. My camera contained a lot of important videos that I wanted to put in my documentary. But thanks to my outside mentor who works in film editing in Ethiopia helped me to capture those missing footage. I had some hard times in creating this video, but it was an amazing adventure. I hope you enjoy my documentary as much as I had creating it.
