London Resources


   London Film has a link on their page if you are interested in hiring local crew members. Understandably, this may not be an option for a low- budget filmmaker. However, it is good if you suddenly would need a replacement or a special technician for a problem on set.


   Tours are a great to see the city. Have a pen and paper so you can write down places to revisit and explore deeper behind the main tour guided area. You also have the chance to learn interesting snippets from your tour guide. While taking pictures around Big Ben a tour group stopped near me and I learned that Winston Churchill's statue is the only statue not facing the Green because he was once quoted as saying that he would never turn his back on parliament. If he faced the Green like the other statues he would have his back to parliament. Interesting right?



   So be a tourist, go on a couple of tours and learn something quirky about London (and there are lots of quirky things to discover.)
