Filming: Archive material (leaflets,provsionals)

We have collected Chris Kelly leaflets and information booklets. As well as, managing to get hold of the generations of provisional licenses. I searched for my grandad's provisional from the 1970s and my nan's booking sheet for her test in Wallasey test centre. We also filmed, my own provisional along with a railcard and disabled persons railcards.

Wanting to make sure we had a lot to choose from, the provisional and railcards were filmed purely to have extra archive material that we could slot in as quick cutaways if any of the interviewees mention learning to drive or if they drive for a profession.

The Chris Kelly material has some good shots and some bad. The zoom on some is not perfect and the surface that the leaflets etc, were placed on wasn't well thought about. However, we plan to use snippets of each zoom to create a mini montage of leaflets and primary research.
