I went and shot the walk with Sara and it was as tricky as predicted lots of on the move, recording sound was an issue and there were technical issues throughout. However I got the best footage that I could. I should have tried to prepare more take a second camera-person and also find a better audi solution. I may n=be able to go back and shoot some pick-ups though.
My thoughts were right from the offset it will be very flat if I rely on just the footage from this and need to experiment to see how that can be incorporated into a different piece. This footage alongside other shoots would enliven it but I must not lose the atmosphere and feel of the walk.
The walk itself was really interesting and opened me to new ideas that I had not come across before and it was also enjoyable and informative even with a camera attached to me. The background on Jane Jacobs was really interesting and I will do some more research into her as she seems to have been fascinating character.
