STORIES FROM CHICAGO

OH CHICAGO…

I’d just graduated and was asked by an ex tutor if i’d like to go to Chicago. The challenge was to capture as much audio and video content as possible in 5 days! I flew from Birmingham Airport on route to the Windy City. Why the trip? Well, Birmingham is a sister city of Chicago. I was there to interview people involved in the sister city project and capture as much content as possible.

The result was that I brought lots of content back for students to use in their projects.

200 GB of content – It ranged from interviews with ex rock stars, tours of Chicago through to footage of pasta being cooked.

A Chicago pizza has about 3cm of cheese.
