The London Map Fair is the biggest of its kind in the world and attracts hundreds of antiquarian book and map sellers, buyers and visitors. The organisers wanted a video record of the 2016 Fair to promote future events. We were commissioned on Saturday morning and were able to 'drop everything' and provide camera and crew to film at The Royal Geographical Society on Sunday!
Produced as 'The Video Team'.
