Yellowstone Hike Route Animation
Budget: $10 – $50 USD
I have a detailed topo map of Yellowstone’s back-country that I will supply in high resolution, and I need it turned into a short, clear video that traces my 7-day backpacking loop. As the red solid line progresses from the trailhead to each night’s stop, a blue tent icon should pop up and number itself “1”, “2”, “3”, all the way to “7”. While the line moves, please overlay the name of any nearby waterfall or stream that I provide for that campsite and briefly flash the distance just covered so viewers can follow our mileage day-by-day.
The finished piece should feel smooth and engaging—think of the classic Indiana-Jones style travel line, only with a backpacking twist. A simple top-down map animation is the must-have; if you can also create a secondary Google Earth–style fly-over that follows the same red line across real 3-D terrain, let me know your added cost and timeline, as I understand that step is more involved.
Deliverables:
• 1080p (or higher) video file showing the full seven-day route with solid red line, numbered blue tents, landmark names, and daily mileage.
• Source project file (After Effects, Premiere, Blender, or similar) so I can tweak dates or camps later.
• Still frame or short loop that I can post on social media as a teaser.
Please factor in two quick rounds of tweaks for pacing, spelling of landmark names, or tent-number timing. If you’ve done map animations before, links or a quick reel will help me choose fast.
