Wheels-a-Rollin - Highlights of the Chicago RR Fair EDDO on 2008-09-18 15:29:30.
This was obviously shot on 16mm film. There are certainly some odd camera angles: shots that should have been wide were close up; portions of the film were in black & white --not really a good thing. The finale (the Diesel and the steam engines coming together) should have been shot from the center and near the top of the bleachers so as to encompass the whole picture. (Note: I was a guest in the cab of that Diesel, blowing the whistle during one performance!) The narration was lacking in some spots, where it might have been useful and informative. Some of the color should have bee brightened up -- it was darker than other shots. (It is really a shame that this was not shot with sound film; the PA announcing would have added a whole perspective to this DVD. In short, this presentation is decent enough; I do not feel that I spent my money foolishly. |
