A closer look into the efforts made by volunteers to give military honors. In this video the Honor Guard of Barksdale Airforce Base practices for funeal services and members talk about their experiences with families who have lost loved ones that served our country. One shot uses overcrank, all video shot on the Panasonic P2 AG-HVX200 photos courtesy Barksdale.
This video aired Independence Day 2007. The video was considered a "Nats" piece which means I only used natural sound and interviews with no script or voice work from a reporter. This allowed great flexibility during the editing. The public information officers with Barksdale and the Barksdale
Honor Guard were very generous with there time and extremely helpful. Although it was not feasible, I wish I could have included an actual ceremony. I do feel this takes you there without disturbing the family who has lost a loved one.
