Concept Manual  This is my final concept manual for my Northern Souk Project. I wanted Sheffield to run through the heart of the manual especially the locations as this is what our concept focused on. The manual is quite personal, as explained I'm a proud northerner so I felt a strong connection to the places we filmed, the concept and the movement itself. I wanted to create something people can feel a connection to. The manual is heavily image based as I believe they say a lot and give a mod and up north feeling. Overall I am happy with the way this turned out and believe it works well with the concept and the brief!

Up The North Final Film from SALLY OCALLAGHAN on Vimeo . This is our final final for the Northern Soul module. We decided the for the characters in the film to have similar interests, both discovering the best areas in their city and feeling proud to live in Sheffield. We wanted to create a feeling of relatability to northerners watching the film. The two characters embody the modern mod and they have a common interest in music towards the end of the film. This is how they meet, outside a popular mod club; The Leadmill. The two enter as a means of escpapism and excitement. The film is a celebration of being northern and all things Sheffield and how this can bring people together. We're so happy with how the film turned out. Changing the concept, we had to make sure we got Jacob filmed as soon as possible to start editing so we could perfect this for the best possible outcome. We used 35mm filters and simple cuts as well as transitional effects. We cut this so the pair would...

We spent around 6 and a half hours setting up and preparing the images for the exhibition. We hung them all up with fishing wire and has to make sure they were all ready for 6pm. It was a tiring day but extremely worth it. It was a very rewarding experience to see mine and Macy's work that we were proud of up at a public exhibition for everyone to see! I was nervous at first about the exhibition but overall an amazing experience and a very good end to my first year at university.

Promotional Materials and exhibition for Kommune  This is the promotional poster made for the Kommune. I wanted a northern based image as the main asset of the poster. It has a northern soul sign and the Fred Perry jacket as Main elements of the image. It showcases the working class in the image and a mod aesthetic. This is the displayed images and final film mock up in Kommune. The images are placed in relation to locations in Sheffield as this is what I wanted the exhibition to focus on. The film would be played on a film projector at the back on the room. There will be a description next to each location on what it means to the locals and the sentiment it holds to Sheffield.
