End Of The Line


KINETIC CARNIVAL - The Coney Island Blog: Coney Vid: End Of The Line
Description:
My first completed film, shot on Super 8 in July 2007, the last summer Coney Island's Astroland was going to be open. I had never visited the park before, but wanted to get there before it was closed forever so one summer while taking a course in NYC, I brought my Super 8 camera and spent the day filming there.
