The document outlines various locations to film footage for a documentary on graffiti in London. It discusses filming timelapses in densely populated areas of London to show the passage of time. It also describes interviewing a graffiti artist and policeman, with the artist's identity obscured for anonymity. Shoreditch is proposed as a location with high graffiti density, including works by Banksy. The final locations used were a graffiti tunnel in Waterloo, the Thames river, and streets in Shoreditch rich with graffiti to film behind a voiceover.

Footage
These images are less likely to be similar to the ones
we will actually shoot however these demonstrate
some of the key elements that will make our
documentary work. In order to make the documentary
flow better and to display time moving we want to
include time lapses of densely populated areas of
London that have rich colours that relate to the urban
density that see’s graffiti displayed on many of its
streets. As we are unable to do graffiti ourselves, we
will want to demonstrate to the audience how an artists
or non-artist goes about spraying their message/art on

3. Interviews
For interviewing purposes we want to interview
2/3 people; one must being a graffiti gang
member artist (we might have to use an actor for
this). This member we would like to interview on
the streets which is his place of work and even
darkening his face so his identity is obscured
which will make the subject more interesting. We
also want to interview a policeman or community
member and have their say which would likely be
inside to suit their environment in the home or
office and provide a visual style that isn’t outside
on the street.

4. Shoreditch
For the opening narration we want to be in a populated
area covered in a high density of graffiti which will set up
the core relation between the title and the visuals of the
documentary. We see Shoreditch as one of the most dense
areas of vandalised graffiti by artists and non artists where
its stayed a part of the towns rich culture. We believe the
bright colours and interesting art by some of the worlds
most famous artists (Banksy) covering the area will be
appropriate and visually interesting for the audience and
provide visuals for when the filmmaker is doing voiceover

5. Final Locations
For the opening of our documentary we went to Leake Street near Waterloo in
London. This is a tunnel where its legal to spray any graffiti you like. Most
professional graffiti artists come here to spray everyday – most of the walls get re-
sprayed after a short amount of time. This allowed us to should lots of footage of
different, interesting graffiti from Star Wars characters to Mehndi styled patterns.
This also allowed us to shoot in some dark urban areas for the opening whereby I
shoot Will (a graffiti tagger) walking down the tunnel and then spraying the title of
our documentary on a wall in a short time-lapse-like segment.
Whilst we were near Southbank, we chose to walk along the Thames shooting some
shots of some areas of London people were more familiar with. We also shot
many people walking down the streets and along the river. While doing this i shot
a time-lapse of the Big Ben and the river, however the quality of footage wasn’t
good enough for our final cut.
We then travelled to Shoreditch using the underground. While waiting at the station
we shot some footage of the train entering and leaving the tunnels. This footage
proved to be the intro to the voice-over establishing the urban setting of London.
In Shoreditch we chose to shoot as much graffiti as possible knowing we could want
more than needed so we could pick out the best shots to fit the 2-3 minutes of our
documentary that would play behind the voice-over. This consisted of Will and I
scouring across different streets of Shoreditch shooting still shots, close-up, zoom
ins, zoom outs, and tracking shots. While we were there we spotted a vibrant
graffiti covered wall in a quiet rural area whereby we could set up the camera and
record the interview with Will without any distractions.
