WILTON MANORS, FL– A Wilton Manors based photographer and filmmaker has created a music video to commemorate the 2011 Stonewall Street Festival and Parade. Scott Allan roamed along Wilton Drive with a video camera during the June 19th event and then edited the footage to the classic gay dance anthem “Proud” by Heather Small (the Josh Harris Pride Extended Remix).
The seven minute video contains over 300 shots, from the circus performers in front of the Texaco station to the dunking tank at Sidelines, and just about everything in between. Also included are shots from inside the temporary Stonewall Museum and the fabulous parade of community groups, businesses, elected officials and special guests marching to the cheers of thousands of happy onlookers.
“The vibe and energy from this year’s Stonewall festival was extremely positive and I’m proud that I was able to capture it on video for the community and the world to see,” said Allan. A link to the YouTube video is on Scott Allan’s website at www.ScottPhotoVideo.com/videos, and you might also see it played at Alibi and Bill’s Filling Station. Some of the hundreds of parade participants have already commented on how exciting it is to see the rest of the parade that was in front of and behind them as they marched.
