Above are still screen grabs from my most recent Vancouver themed Documentary Video Series. The footage I captured was all at the Hastings Racetrack in East Vancouver.
I’ve always been fascinated by the track, and the people that go there. Some go to the track for the spectacle and the show. Others go to gamble large amounts of money. On the back stretch behind the track – I met owners that have invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in their horses, trainers that have spent countless hours preparing the horses to race, and jockeys that have fulfilled lifelong career ambitions as professional athletes.
This video will be posted on my Vimeo Page very soon! In the meantime, here is an earlier video project from ‘a day in the life’ in Chinatown, Vancouver — http://vimeo.com/4098503
