Video and photo album: Bank raid re-enactment

By Griff Wigley, on July 8th, 2009

I took video instead of photos of the bank raid re-enactment at last month’s Taste of Northfield. I discovered that the camera can take low-res photos of video frames so here’s a dozen. My favorite is the one showing gun fire. Who is that guy?

See the album, the large slideshow, or this small slideshow (the 7-minute video is below):

Move over Martin Scorsese!
All that is needed now is a dolly for the camera, to smooth over the lumpy retreating shots…or some moonwalk lessons.
