The Project
Highlight the important stories of the dedicated runners fundraising in the 2019 London Marathon: why the NSPCC's cause is important to them, and the mammoth 26.2 mile journey across the capital.
The Challenge
• Capturing footage that embodies the exhilaration, energy, and exhaustion of running the London Marathon (no small task and is almost as much work as running the marathon itself!)
• Quickly identify, frame up and film a selection of specific runners (out of 40,000) to be interviewed later in the day.
• Safely move equipment through hundreds of thousands of spectators, across London.
