Monday 12th November (the day before the performance)

Me Ellie and Jason met up today to go finish the work we started last week. We borrowed a proper microphone from the university and went around the Transport lines around Stratford interviewing staff and a few passengers asking their opinions on the matter and got some great interview audio footage.

We decided that we would do our performance as sort of a mini-documentary looking at how the olympics affected london's people and what it did to their general state of mind
 
We asked the people we interviewed to give us 1 word that describes the London transport experience at the end of every interview.

I went and brought some large paper and wrote the words down splitting the paper in 2 (before and after the Olympics and during the Olympics and the build up to it.) and this was to be presented alongside our mini-documentary.

We sat in the  library until 23:00 that night putting together all of our footage and editing the bits that i had done at home onto the final edit of the film

we thought this parody song about the London underground was fitting to put in our piece as it voices the displeasure most people talked about in their interviews https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHu_cfy33bY.

And we had some footage of Jason's time working for the Olympics which proved really useful to explain his story (which came about in the form of and interview we each did about the transport and Olympics and how it effected each of us) which we edited into our documentary.
