Digital News - The Idea We Went With

The idea we decided to go through with was Troys idea to create an online news show about art. The initial idea was to film at The Other Art Fair, which is an art event held for emerging artists looking to break into the art scene. The event was due to take place in London from the 6th to 9th October. We were also looking at going to another gallery to film the second half of the show.

However the other art fair organisers never got back to us resorting to new ideas. Having discussed the idea with the group a little more, we came to a decision to narrow the idea down to contemporary art so it's not so broad. To narrow it down even more, we decided to keep it to the south east so there's less traveling and not such a wide scope to look at. Sammi then brought up the Highgate Contemporary Art Gallery, a gallery owned by one of her former students and good friends, Hannah.















When looking into the gallery a little more, we saw that there is an art exhibition starting out around the same time we had planned on started filming, Jonathan Davis' Panta Rhei exhibition. On deciding to film both the gallery and the exhibition, we decided on a basis for our show, the Artist and Gallery of the month. We got into contact with Jonathan and the gallery to see if it would be possible to do an interview with Jonathan and to film around the gallery, which they allowed us to do.
