Lindheimer, Phoenix, Costumes - Action!

Lindheimer (actor) at the Lindheimer Home

We began shooting last week for the much anticipated Cultural Heritage video tour.  This follows the meeting last week to finish up the new Cultural Heritage brochure.

We shot at the Lindheimer mural, then at the Lindheimer home, and at Conservation Plaza.

We also shot at the Phoenix.  

These will be our two pilot videos and we will see how it goes and how the content is received.  You will be able to access online and on any smart phone or pad device.  They will be short, interesting, and informative. 
Lots of folks want to know more about the guy on the mural at Naegelin's Bakery and this project should do it. 

Challenges have included noises from traffic, diesel engines, and motorcycles.

(Actually one charming motorcyclist purposely gunned his engine when he saw us shooting.)

Getting ready to shoot at the Phoenix

Anyway, back to the task at hand.  Our friends at Smiling Eyes in Gruene loaned us period costumes and we are eternally grateful.  The New Braunfels Conservation Society has been more than gracious by providing access to their facilities that make the perfect setting.  The Sophienburg Museum has been gracious with their information and photo archives.  Heritage Plaza ultimately was the best location for the horseback Lindheimer shot.  Thanks so much to the family that came and helped us with their fabulous horses. 

So, if you see us shooting - wave - don't honk.
