Brixton Riots 1981 - Social Media Reporting - Day 4
November 19, 2008 Specialist projectsThis blog has been written by participants of a social media reporting project.
Day 4
It’s the day of the interviews and we’re all prepared. Some of us are up and out interviewing on the streets of Brixton on the front line reliving the experience of the 1981 riots.
A few of us admitted to feeling nervous, but speaking to the interviewees prior to the interviews really helped to calm the nerves and provided valuable information for the main interviews.
Our official photographer Frewine Solomon was joined by another photographer from Time Out magazine who took pictures of us in action, and some of us were interviewed – it’ll be interesting what they say about us!
After doing our interviews we sat quietly and did our logging – hopefully this will help us with the editing process.
