TJ Mavani of Leicestershire Police Licensing wanted to commission a film showing the real nightlife in Leicester and how the police professionally deal with problems while keeping the nightlife safe. The filmmakers proposed filming various locations on weekends with the police to ensure safety and success. After their first meeting, they discussed ideas and decided the film would have no narrative, instead being more like a technical police documentary similar to Road Wars.

1. Meeting with PC TJ Mavani Leicestershire Police Licensing Thursday 16th June 2011

2. Introduction We had out first meeting with TJ in which we found out what he wanted from us. TJ told us what he wanted but we also told him what we had in mind and was very open to ideas and said that he would be happy with the ideas which we had which was to go out into town and film various locations. This meant that we had to go most weekends with the police into town to ensure film would be a success and also our safety is not put at risk.

3. TJ’s Brief TJ wanted a film which would go to different forces around the UK to show the real nightlife in Leicester and show how there are problems in Leicester but they are dealt in a professional manner but on the other hand Leicester nightlife will be safe.

7. After the meeting After the meeting had ended we all sat down in a group to think of some various ideas and rough cuts on what we could do and the structure of the film. We all in the end decided that there would be no narrative structure to it but instead it would be very technical such as Road Wars.
