Kalimari Desert/Dry Dry Desert - Mario Kart Hot Wheels Episode #15

Kalimari Desert/Dry Dry Desert
Or do I just call it Dried Kalimari Desert??

First off, special thanks to ‪@DJMykah‬ for the audio for this video. Make sure to check out their amazing channel! I was given permission to use this amazing music.


So some fun facts about this one!

I actually started filming this one in October of 2022, but I got too busy with work and it snowed early and it was just too cold to work in. I think I basically just tossed all of that old footage. Initially it was going to be a race with 4 characters. Mario, Lakitu, Dry Bones and Dry Bowser. But this was about the time I realized that it is too much work to have 4 characters at once and the I'd always separate them in to two groups of 2 anyways. So I split the footage up and used some of the footage in Peach Beach with Mario and Lakitu.

This was filmed at the St. Anthony Sand Dunes in Idaho. Fun fact about these sand dunes. Remember in Napoleon Dynamite when Grandma Carlinda goes to the dunes with her boyfriend...well, these were the dunes!

This is the first time I used the Squid/Blooper. I accomplished this by painting a Bowser character completely black. Then I was lucky enough to find ‪@dralezero‬ had made a green screen effect which took away HOURS of editing for me! He's got some great stuff on his channel.
