Part 6 - Source to Sea down the River Thames WITHOUT Leaving it
Added 2025-03-04 17:27:37 +0000 UTCThe Rivers Trust fundraiser: https://www.justgiving.com/page/edprattriver
I hope the length of this one explains why it took a little longer to release. Initially I’d planned for this to be two videos, but I realised halfway through editing that the story worked better as one single feature-length monster! Enjoy!

2025-03-10 06:42:09 +0000 UTCAmazing series, loving every minute, but why is the cast button disabled on episode three? Vimeo says the creator has not allowed casting. Doesn't seem to be a way to cast episode six either. Or is that just me?

2025-03-06 20:49:37 +0000 UTCGreat video Ed. Feature length was a real treat. Can't wait to see the final parts of this (even though it's already happened, good luck!) Great work editing all round, compiling all of the footage in to a clear narrative. Keep it going, you're creating golden media with this series.
Samuel Shepherd
2025-03-06 14:45:59 +0000 UTCEnjoying the latest instalment. And I must commend Ed on being the first person in over 20 years to use the phrase 'take a chill pill' when confronted by a grouchy swan.

2025-03-04 21:54:38 +0000 UTCEd, this series has been an absolute masterpiece. Everything from the music, editing, visuals, narration, storytelling, and interactions feels perfect. With everything happening in the country and the world right now, it’s painting such a beautiful picture of the UK. I loved the daily videos last summer and thought I didn’t need more, but this series has completely captivated me. I’ve been counting down to each new upload. You're a real inspiration mate. I genuinely want to go buy a kayak tomorrow and try something like this myself. Obviously your channel has blown up and rightly slow, but I’m still shocked you don’t have millions of subscribers. This is some of the best content I’ve ever seen on YouTube.

2025-03-04 21:21:44 +0000 UTCThe majority of the audio is just from the GoPro on my head. The windmuff surrounding it is a game changer. Doubles up as a kind of lab mic. I then sync it to other footage. The audio chatting with others can sometimes be a little rough hence the decision to subtitle the integrations. But I kind of like the rawness off it. I also do a light amount of audio processing to get the voices more audible over the background noise
Ed Pratt
2025-03-04 21:21:28 +0000 UTCThank you. I always appreciate people catching these errors. This one’s quite a blatant one annoying haha. Don’t know how I missed it. Hopefully there’s nothing else major
Ed Pratt
2025-03-04 21:16:41 +0000 UTCbeen looking forward to this - great adventure ! . I hope to finish my goal of paddleboarding 100 rivers by August this year
Richard
2025-03-04 20:10:47 +0000 UTCYou are an amazing editor and storyteller. Seriously! I watch a lot of visual media and the pacing, the humor, the shots, the music, the subtitles: you're doing everything really well.
Caitlin Nelson
2025-03-04 19:17:19 +0000 UTCHey Ed, at 42:59 it looks like a missing clip issue just before you upload to the public. Brilliant as always. You're so well spoken, polite and friendly. Always willing to help, I hope your parents are very proud of you! They raised you incredibly well.
Tom Davies
2025-03-04 19:09:38 +0000 UTCThe sound is very good, how did you do it so well?
