The novelty of films often draws huge crowds of tourists, one of
these major films for the city of London, England is the Harry Potter
series. There are dozens of tours pointing out and taking fans
through the different areas of the city that were used in the
shooting of the films. These include site such as Platform 9 ¾ at
King's Cross Station, which now has its own sign and a trolley bolted
halfway into the brick platform divider. Thousands of tourists flock
to those sights for a chancce to touch where their favourite movie
was made.
London is said to be hard to do on a budget, but it is very
possible if you go smartly. And for the aspiring filmmaker it is one
of those cities to use, if only for inspiration.
If you're like me and you write your own stories, there is always
a need for good inspiration. London will give you need, and then a
little more; from the tube, to the museums, to Londoners themselves,
this shy city loves to tell its stories to people who find them.
London is a wonderful haven for creative people of any sort. From
Camden's crazy markets to the reserved streets of Kensington and
Westminster, it is hard to go anywhere and not see someone with their
own unique style. They bring even more attention to themselves on
the weekdays among all the men in business suits that fill the city
to the brim.
The tube is regularly the home for tripod carrying artists, as
well as musicians tucked away in the subway tunnels. You can hear
the music echoing down the concrete tunnels, musicians working for
their way in the world. And that is what London is- a home for those
who don't mind being a little different than everyone else.
I'm going to take you through some of my favourite walks, spots
and tips for people who want to take awesome pictures, write stories
and especially, make films.
