Final Film

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 be living similar lives in the same locations and happened upon each other at the end. The music fit the concept as it was Joy Divison (A northern band) but still listened to now. The film is modern, a celebration and shows a lot of love for the north. Were pleased with how it turned out in the end!
