| Video Discription | Tim is a designer and illustrator who set himself the challenge of documenting 2014 through reportage. Reportage is an art that captures real events and situations through drawings, and dates back to the 1800s when 'special artists' would go out on to the front lines just as photo journalists do now. How has the project made this year any different? "I remember everything...perfectly." 1000 LONDONERS This film is part of 1000 Londoners, a five-year digital project which aims to create a digital portrait of a city through 1000 of the people who identify themselves with it. The profile contains a 3 minute film that gives an insight into the life of the Londoner, as well as their personal photos of London and some answers to crucial questions about their views on London life. Over the course of the project we aim to reveal as many facets of the capital as possible, seeing city life from 1000 points of view. www.1000londoners.com www.youtube.com/1000londoners www.facebook.com/1000londoners Twitter: @1000_londoners 1000 Londoners is produced by South London based film production company and social enterprise, Chocolate Films. The filmmakers from Chocolate Films will be both producing the films and providing opportunities to young people and community groups to make their own short documentaries, which will contribute to the 1000 films.

Back in...I think it was about 1842 when illustration on London News started and there was a lot of wars happening at the time and photography wasn't quite good enough then to capture any kind of movement so they used to use these guys called 'special artists' who used to go out onto the front lines and experience everything that the soldier experienced. I think most of the time, if you're out in the public, people don't really notice. If you try and hide it, people will come over and see what you're doing but if you just go for it then most people don't ever realise. It's weird. I quite like busy situations where there's lots going on. Like things happening in the foreground, lots happening in the background. So I think you've just got to get up close and get involved in the situation. If someone realises I'm doing them they usually smile and be quite happy about it. Sometimes they'll come over and have a look and they really like it. It's made the year go super quickly. Like I could look back at a drawing now from the start of the year and I can kind of remember the whole day, things that were going on around me at that time. And I guess it's because, when you're drawing you're kind of using every sense a lot more. This year's been a lot more interesting. I couldn't remember half the things I did last year but I can remember all the thing's I've done this year...perfectly. |
