| Description: | STEPPING HIGH Two women do a Charleston on top of a very tall chimney - very cute! United States 2 women painters wearing overalls stand on ground beside the bottom of a wide pipe in front of brick wall of building. One sits on board hanging from ropes, with a bucket and a brush on a stick also hanging from the seat; the other woman pulls on a rope to haul her partner up. LS tilt up woman on the board being hauled up alongside the tall pipe. Shot from almost directly underneath her as she continues to rise; can see another worker already at the top. WS 2 workers painting at top of smokestacks. LS cameraman climbing water tower, with camera and tripod hanging from his belt. WS same. POV cameraman - WS the 2 women standing on top of smokestack, which seems to be the highest thing around besides the water tower; houses scattered around in BG. Zoom in shot of the women dancing on board laid over top of smokestack. They wear impractical heeled shoes (not just for the dancing part, they had the same footwear on while working). WS tilt up building with smokestack beside and rising above; women workers are still on top, still dancing. | |
