Fort Phantom Hill, Abilene, Texas
This is my first video shot with the Canon 5D Mark ii. I recently purchased the camera, have shot a few images and a few other clips but this movie represents the first real attempt to shoot video with the camera.
I also used the Zacuto Z-finder to shoot the clips in this movie. Can't imagine doing it without the z-finder. Being able to clearly see what you are shooting and being able to focus are critical to the success of any shoot. The z-finder allows the camera operator to focus and frame to a higher degree than can be done without a device like the z-finder.
There was no color correction or other effects used in this video.

A bit about the fort:
Located in present-day Jones County, Fort Phantom Hill is one of the most pristine historic sites in Texas. It was one of the second line of forts laid out in the early 1850's to protect the westward-moving frontier of Texas settlement.
Today Fort Phantom Hill is part of the Texas Forts Trail, a 650-mile highway tour of historic Texas forts in West Central Texas. Originally known as the Post on the Clear Fork of the Brazos, the fort was occupied by the U.S. Army from 1851 until 1854. Shortly after the army abandoned Fort Phantom Hill, fire destroyed most of the log walls and thatched roofs of the post's buildings. However, much remains for visitors to the old fort to explore, inspect and study, including three original stone buildings (an intact stone powder magazine, a stone guardhouse and an almost-intact commissary or warehouse), more than a dozen stone chimneys, and stone foundations from the original fort.

A short video tour of Fort Phantom Hill a US Army and Confederate Army post located on the Clear Fork of the Brazos River in Taylor County, Texas. Mostly all that is left are some building footings and some stone chimneys that stand like monoliths on the Texas prairie

THE PARANORMAL FILES is a web series which explores all things paranormal, including spirits, religion, cryptids and even extraterrestrials. Over the years, lead investigators Colin Browen (of Verizon/Go90’s web series “Teen Spirit”) and his significant other Payton McWhorter have captured a number of extreme paranormal events on camera, including bloody physical attacks, crystal clear spirit voices and even what appear to be apparitions on camera. The bi-weekly show has taken Colin and Payton across the world, traveling state to state and even country to country to investigate claims of extreme paranormal activity, and to check out famous locations alleged to be haunted are really as active as people claim. Their serious, no “B.S.” and at times darkly funny and dangerous style of investigating has been changing the way people think about the paranormal for years now, and begs the question- do YOU believe in ghosts?

This was the next stop in Texas - Abilene at Sea Bee Park on Ft. Phantom Hill Lake. There are only a few campsites there, but they are free. The area was well patrolled and we had a nice, relaxing time. Well, at least once I got over the shock of finding a skinned bear-pig in our campsite. Details in the video. Enjoy! :))
Lake Fort Phantom Hill is mostly owned by the city of Abilene, and is governed by US Marshalls while the public boat ramp belongs to Texas Parks & Wildlife (TPWD) but maintained by the City of Abilene. Wow. Try sorting all that out! But it sure makes for a wonderful stay.

THANK YOU TO MY SUBSCRIBERS AND VIEWERS:
Admittedly, some days out here, I get discouraged. It is challenging to let go of who I used to be and accept my limitations as a TBI Thriver, while at the same time acknowledging and moving forward in the knowledge and faith that my world, my goals and abilities are unlimited. KOKO! Thank you to each one of you for being here, lifting my spirits and offering the positive support you so freely give.
I started this journey with Bentley and Nonni, my two furbabies, and now it is Nonni and me (RIP Bentley) forging ahead in Fancy Free - my beautifully renovated, luxurious home on wheels. I love my rig, and this life I am so blessed to enjoy. No assisted living/nursing home for me! I love my AWEsome supporters, subscribers and viewers.
THANK YOU!
SEE YOU DOWN THE ROAD!
