We organised ourselves during this project well as we began production as soon as we could with a meeting that took place after the first session. We sat for over an hour and began to come up with ideas which we could do for the documentary before settling on the idea of a documentary about Park Hill and the I Love You, Will U Marry Me graffiti on the bridge. After the third shoot day myself and Connor got to work with the edit as to stay on top of all the work we had and so that we could be in sync with the shoot days so we could get any pickups and extra shots if needed. We then presented a 3 minute rough cut a received some feedback on what we did well, but more importantly what we could improve upon.  The first piece of feedback was regarding the narrator we had decided to use. We were told that the voice seemed out of place as he had a very staged voice and didn't fit with the strong Sheffield accents of Katy and Graham, our interviewees. Luckily this was an easy fix as Conn...

Above is a screenshot of the sound files recorded by Harvey Mountford. The first four files are ambience which was recorded on location at Park Hill of the distant sounds of the city and the inside of Park Hill itself. The second section of the list is of the soundtrack also recorded by Harvey which we end up not using as we though a recording a piano directly gave it a more organic feel and sounded less robotic than these files. Finally the ZOOM files are of the voice over which we had to rerecord using Connor's voice as we had feedback that said his voice better suited the tone of the film and fit well with the Sheffield accent.

(Screenshots from actual shots) Birds flying (shot following)  used this shot when it was more zoomed in on the birds and was placed around when the documentary talks about sheffield which creates a gap between park hill and the city itself. Harvey walking into Park Hill (still shot) Sunset from top of Park Hill (still shot)  shot was slightly unstable so if the stabilizer in post production helps then the shot will be used. 'Claire' lamppost (still shot)  slightly over exposed in the sky so this was reshot on shoot day three from a better angle and lower light. Shot of abandoned bar and rubbish (pan shot) Needles found on floor (still/panning shot) Inside one of Park Hill's empty flats (moving/still shots) shots from inside the old park hill flats were hard to achieve as there was no light inside due to boarding it all off with metal sheets, we also had to move quickly and it was small which meant we couldn't ta...
