Documentary: Second Contact Visit

To continue the preparation for our documentary unit, Cheyenne, Saskia and I visited our contacts for a second time to set everything in stone and gather more research.

SECOND CONTACT/LOCATION VISIT

When we arrived at the site we met with Martina, the Veg-box and communications coordinator. She told us where we could find Jamie, the project grower, so we could ask him some more questions about the allotments.

We walked up to the second plot and met Jamie, who was working with a group of his volunteers. He introduced us to his volunteers, who were all willing to take part in the documentary.

Cheyenne, Saskia and I had a little walk around the top plot to note down any filming locations, and possible risks for our risk assessments. Whilst there we had a chat about style and storylines.

After our tour, we spoke to Jamie, who told us about his opinions on the loss of farming land over the years, which was great because we wanted to feature that in our documentary. He also told us about his schedule for the shooting days, so we knew when and where he would be.

Finally, we walked back down to the bottom plot to meet Martina. After a quick chat about the schedule for shooting, we left the site.

Here are some photos we took during our visit:
