Filming at the SEND Conference in Nottingham

I was recently invited up to the SEND Conference in Nottingham, by Nottinghamshire County Council to film some "vox pops" (voice of the populi - i.e. people expressing their thoughts and opinions) and keynote speakers.

The content of the conference was around the same topic my previous animation was based on, and it was really nice to see my animation being played at the conference to help delineate the new EHC plan.

The event presented me with some great experience in the area of filming. I found the vox pops looked the best, and I think a DSLR is well set out for this purpose. Since the conference I have put together 8 seperate videos (3 vox pops, 3 keynote speakers, key messages and a summary video.) The summary video was fun to make as it was an amalgamation of various cutaway shots taken thoughout the day with selected bits of the speakers and vox pops. So a nice mix!
