long live Halloween Adventure! thanks for making this great short

Very interesting! Thanks for documenting an important part of NYC culture. Loved how Stitch’s nephews liked the in-person shopping experience over Amazon aka “online”, so very true, especially for stuff like this. It’s a shame COVID and Amazon led to the closure of Halloween Adventure. New Yorkers are resilient, glad to see the store reopened for Halloween 2022, way to go Stitch!

Really good job at the interviews and the shoot. Its a bit distracting from the story, when the cameras keep shifting between digital and film, would have felt seamless and unnoticeable if it was one format, but otherwise, all the film segments look gorgeous and horror and film is the perfect combo

Hi guys -- great work! Really fun doc. What stock did you shoot the 16mm film segments on? Really impressed by the exposure you were able to get indoors with it. Thank you!

[@gerardsfilms]

Thank you! We shot 250D for the outdoor and 500T for the indoors. Just about everything was available light.
