In contrast to my other portfolios, this contains quite a lot of content - the objective is to capture the mood of the event - so single images don't give a fair impression of the work.
Typically, there is little time for editing as a fast turnaround is needed for social media, but there are may be other requirements - to provide a documentary archive, or to produce promotional material for future events, or just to provide a memento for participants.
I've included a number of examples here, where I was involved and briefed by the event organisers.
The images shown represent a representative edit of the overall images produced.

Sandwell Arts Festival, 2013
Covering this event as a photographer for Sandwell Council, this week-long event involved creative initiatives with youngsters in the local libraries, a performance by "MotionHouse", and - the main event - the Parade of those "Sandwell Giants" through West Bromwich town centre (including the "Birmingham Reds" mime troupe and "Granny Turismo").
