:thumbsup: Good work well turned out all around , can I offer a small piece of advice on your next project. That is try realy hard to keep the combat uncos or slow movers to the sides or back ground of your shots .It spoils the over all effect to see someone break contact by just standing up and casualy walk away with their gun in one hand ,keep the action centre front and no one will notice us older slower guys on the edges

Thanks everybody! I had a lot of fun shooting and putting it together.

1601phill: Thanks for the advice! You make a good point. I think the scene in question is when the Indians return the attack and the English are forced to fall back. Part of that is just the ebb and flow of how the skirmish took place. Thanks again! It's always good to get different points of view.

I enjoyed watching the video. The few things I found interesting were the cars and visitors in the background. I know that would be hard to control. Distracting and humorous. :idunno: :rotf:

Thanks for taking the time to shoot it and for posting :thumbsup:

Nice job! Don't let the gripers get you down.

By the way, any relation to Karen Shook, the talented sheath maker who makes Daniel Winkler's knives look REALLY good?

manure!!!!! I totally forgot about this last weekend. I was building fence. Fort Dobbs is about 10 min drive from me. Oh well I guess your video will have to do.

 

[dalejrfan308]

Yeah, I tried my best while filming and editing to keep any "modern intrusions" to a minimum. Sometimes it couldn't be helped.

No, I don't think I'm kin to a Karen Shook. But, if she's a Shook she's bound to be a good'n! :haha:

I'm not sure what his name is. He is one of the provincial soldiers at the fort.
