  I went along to Hinckley town centre for the @hinckleybid August Classic Vintage Vehicle meet , which sees cars (pre-2000 models) on display by their owners around the town centre. We see the cars arriving and find their places with everything from more modern sports cars to a green classic Austin Martin polished to perfection in the evening sun. There’s also a Mini with a Union Flag roof and a Mustang with a selection of stickers on its back window. Down at the bottom of the hill, we find a vintage French limousine with a fun Pirate Duck as a hood ornament.  

  In July 2021 Hinckley town Centre played host to BID Hinckley`s Classic Vehicle evening meet.  Gleaming polished classics from various years (pre-2000 registration) assembled on the sunlit streets and market place in the town, mirrored chrome shone brightly and owners sat beside them proud of their work. Visitors admired the artistry of yesterday's car designers as they walked socially distanced up and down castle street the main market street in the Leicestershire town. My film features a few of the cars that attended and aims to give a flavor of the event.

On 29th April 2016 as Leicester City Football Club where poised to win the English Premier League the City Of Leicester showed its support by illuminating many city landmarks with blue light. Named #BackingTheBlues day the event was a joint campaign launched by BBC Radio Leicester and the Leicester Mercury and supported by businesses across the city. My short film features a few highlights of the evening including a projection of LCFC players Riyad Mahrez & Jamie Vardy and the city's cathedral all bathed in blue light.

The Salcombe Town Regatta is held yearly in the small town of Salcombe in Devon famed for its local crab and popular with holiday makers. The week long town regatta includes many traditional seaside events such as a sandcastle competition, spot the bloomer and a very popular firework display usually on the penultimate day of the event. My video (filmed from South Sands beach just outside the town) affords the viewer an alternative angle on the 2013 display with Salcombe castle silhouetted against the bright colours of the display.
