Awesome job, Al et al.

Very good job Al. Good interviews, nice use of the old photographs.

was this all done with the HMC150 camera?

Yes. It was entirely done with an HMC150. The camera performed great.

Amazing!

Exceptional encoding. What was your workflow? NLE?

This video, don't remember how I happened upon it, but I'm glad this video's out there. Honestly, to hear these people talk about a time with more abundant natural resources, wildlife, and a greater sense of public life (when we weren't all "bowling alone" so to speak) makes me wish I'd grown up 40 years earlier. I hope I would have done a better job of preservation, and, I realize I need to do a better job right now--so the next generation doesn't feel the same way I do.

Thanks Mike, for the kind words. Yes, it was a different world, better in some ways, yet harder. There was little environmental awareness and no ability to change the status quo as it destroyed these resources. These folks were all pretty middle to lower income folks, truck drivers, prison guards, housewives of mill workers or fishermen, high school teacher. They lived in a paradise of place, yet watched it vanish in front of their eyes. The fact that so many are so hopeful of the future, was a very special gift in doing the film. In my mind, they are very much of what an American is. Involved in their communities. And very independent.
