I had the opportunity to direct, self-shoot and edit this film for St Mungo’s 2017 Christmas Campaign which aimed to highlight the cold conditions that rough sleepers face particularly in the winter.

 

The subject of this film was man named Jim who has been a rough sleeper on and off for over 30 years. Before filming I met up with him in his home and got to know more about him and his story. As you can imagine it was no easy task to take his incredible experience and script it for 2 short videos for Youtube and for Facebook.

 

For the film Jim took me round to different locations in London where he had slept rough talking about the cold dangerous experience he had. It was an eye-opening experience to say the least.
