  • Over the last year, in my spare time, I've been making time lapse videos of scenes around Morgantown, West Virginia, the home of West Virginia University. This video contains my favorite shots from these time lapse adventures.
    Music:

    I’ve been watching this video of Morgantown for the last 12 years . Anytime I wanna visit, but I don’t have the time to drive back from NC I just put this on. Morgantown native, wvu grad. Motown will always be home . Go mountaineers !

    Great video. I'm an Australian, and I lived in Morgantown for 10 years. Back home in Australia now, this brought back some gear memories. Well done.

    I am just a freshman at WVU and I love it! Everyone that stereotypes us needs to watch this. And there were several people in my History class today that were talking about this. Awesome job!

    The shot of downtown from atop the hill in Westover is absolutely stunning. The best shot in the whole video.

    very nice :) for those who don't know morgantown though, the city is huge. this is just the downtown mostly. Morgantown is pretty much a metropolis thanks to the University. the towns incorporated are Westover, Suncrest, and Morgantown. we morgantowner don't even recognize the difference sometimes

    This was an awesome video! Captures Morgantown perfectly! I think that the tourism board would MELT over this! Makes me love Morgantown even more

  • @ShowMeYaTDs
    @ShowMeYaTDs 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love this. Especially as an avid traveler, for most people Morgantown is just a blip on the map but it's more than home to me. I'm so glad I have a brilliant video to share with my international friends! Mountaineer for life.

    This is great. It makes me homesick. After being gone for over 20 years I recognized so much. I agree submit it to WV tourism board. It would be a great promotional tool for them. Job well done!

    I like the one at the top of High Street looking over the Mountain Lair Plaza as the sun sets. It would have been pretty cool if you could have gotten one of them setting up for and filming ESPN College Game Day!
