cambridge folk festival
super8 film

Having grown up 5 minutes away from the Cambridge Folk Festival site, I jumped at the chance to film the event in 2001.

I filmed lots of footage during the build up to the festival as well as the weekend itself on two Super 8 cameras. It was a rather expensive way of filming but worth it for that Super 8 ‘feel’.

BBC Radio 2 (sponsors of the event at that time) stumped up some money for me to edit the film professionally and eventually the film got shown at the prestigious Cambridge Film Festival as part of the short film programme.
