Critical to the success of Derwent London has been the ability to meet occupiers needs. A vacancy rate of 1% on available space and successful pre-letting of various schemes in development, is testament to delivering space which meets the occupiers needs.
Occupiers' needs have typically centred around location, rent and rates. Other factors, such as volume, branding, flexible occupation, amenity, health and sustainability are becoming increasingly important.
Three Derwent London projects, Tea, Buckley and White Collar Factory, are reviewed to illustrate how Derwent London have evolved to meet changing occupiers needs in the past, present and future.

I've tried to do something different with my c.v. Using photos that I have taken during walks in my local countryside, I have created a "walk" through my career. Enjoy and let me know of any job opportunities!
1. In What Ways Does Your Media Product Use, Develop Or Challenge Forms And Conventions Of Real Media Products?
2. Titling Your Production – Use, Develop or Challenge Using Your Research Findings – Note Typical Generic Conventions Normally, films use a dark, if not black, background with a bold white font to show that the film involves ‘hard’ men and violence. The titles are not on screen for a huge amount of time (about 3-5 seconds) to show that the film is fast-paced and action-packed. We did the same as most films and used a black background, to show the amount of violence in the film, with white, bold font. They only lasted for about 3-5 seconds like most other British Drama films like ours to show that our film will also be fast-paced and full of action. Titling for Green Street Hooligans
3. Camera Movement And Camera Angles Your Production – Use, Develop or Challenge Using Your Research Findings – Note Typical Generic Conventions British films will usually use panning shots at eye-level to make the audience feel as though they are in the film which will therefore make them want to continue watching. Our film uses these same techniques, we have many eye-level shots and at one point, follow the main character from behind (tracking) to give the feel of someone watching him, like he is a wanted man. Eye-level shot/over-the-shoulder shot from Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels
4. Framing Of Shot Your Production – Use, Develop or Challenge Using Your Research Findings – Note Typical Generic Conventions Most of the time, the films will use medium shots to show the character’s costumes and personalities, yet still being able to see emotions in their faces. It’s also used to show that these men are part of a gang or club and to show their surroundings. When a fast-paced scene is shown, long shots are used to focus on the actor’s movements. Close-ups are only used to focus in on violence or weapons. In our film, we also used many medium shots for the same reasons but used a lot more close-ups to focus in on props which help give the audience an idea of the character’s personality. We also used an over-the-shoulder shot to show how the character views things which will then help the audience make a connection with him. Medium shot to show surroundings and that these people are in a gang
5. Mise-En-Scene Your Production – Use, Develop or Challenge Using Your Research Findings – Note Typical Generic Conventions In all the films I have seen, quite dull, warm colours were used to portray a dirty, lower class area. Locations are usually run-down towns with rubbish filling the streets. We used the same type of location for our film. We filmed the first part in a council estate which brings up the stereotype of people that live on council estate are rougher and un-educated, we also filmed in a pub to show that they are really English men and not young teenagers hanging around on street corners. The colours that we used were also warm and dull, the pub was lit perfectly for us and the council estate had worn-out walls. Use of dull and warm colours in Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels
6. Editing Directions Your Production – Use, Develop or Challenge Using Your Research Findings – Note Typical Generic Conventions When there is a scene which is considered fast-paced, the cutting rhythm is very quick and the camera is looking around everywhere to portray a person looking around nervously (see Snatch opening). This will engage the audience as they feel as though they to are in the film. The only editing techniques that are used in typical British dramas like ours are when actions scenes are on screen. Because there were no action scenes in our opening, we stuck to the conventions and used hardly any editing techniques. The only one we did use was creating a CCTV-like shot to show that this area, or even the character, is being watched. This makes him seem much more dangerous. Slowed down shot in Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels
7. Sounds Techniques Your Production – Use, Develop or Challenge Using Your Research Findings – Note Typical Generic Conventions When a weapon is shown or fired, the sound is exaggerated to focus in on the violence. A monologue is occasionally used to give the audience a feel of what the main character’s personality is about. This also shows who the main characters will be. As there were no weapons shown in our opening, the only sound techniques that we used was placing a monologue over the opening. We used this to give the audience a good idea of the character’s personality and to let audience know what the film will be about.
8. Actors Positioning And Movement Your Production – Use, Develop or Challenge Using Your Research Findings – Note Typical Generic Conventions When the actors walk, they tend to push-put their chest to make them seem bigger and therefore more violent. Actors movements are focused on and used as a way to give away more of the character’s personality. Our character hunched over slightly and looked very cautious of his surroundings to give the audience the sense that he is very secretive and clever. Once he is with his mates, we see him laughing and be more open to show that as a group, these men are not afraid of anything. Actor’s Swaying arms and pushing out chest to seem more violent
