The Elstree Project

The Elstree Project is a unique oral history project. Over the past two years we have recorded 32 interviews with film and television industry veterans from the studios of Elstree and Borehamwood. The interviews showcase the rich and fascinating history of the studios; telling the stories of how some of the world's most well-known and best-loved film and television shows were made, from the people who helped make them.


One of the great benefits we have been able to offer is regular work experience for film students and allow them to not only participate in the filming and recording of these interviews, but also have them meet the veterans from the very industry they are looking to work in and hear first-hand what it was like.

They're running a Kickstarter right now.

Edit: I just realized they used a quote from jambedavdar in their pitch video. =P

Will it include people working at the Tesco supermarket now?

Dang that does sound like a really cool project... always loved seeing interviews and such. I hope they meet their goal.
