Clifton Hill Ghost Town Mini Documentary

Text:

With this whole pandemic going on, and seeing all the photos from people on Facebook and news paper articles. I thought we would go down and take a drive to check out the Hill for ourselves. Knowing the circumstances of going out, we just wanted to get out for some fresh air. We stayed in the car and just drove around. We just couldn’t believe how much of a ghost town it looked like. We were really in shock and at a loss of words...

It gave me the idea to take a couple video clips and make up a little mini documentary. The information I used in the voice overs was from the St.Catharines Standard article “Pandemic dimes down the lights on Niagara Falls tourism district”.

The first couple aerial clips with it being busy, are used from Clifton Hills YouTube channels videos. After a nice friendly chat with them they gave me full permission to use some parts. Which I couldn’t thank them enough for.

Hope you like it and everyone is being safe out there!
