Sheffield - A City of Regeneration

Filmed November 2010. I filmed, narrated and edited the entire video myself, the only assistance I had was for the moving shots which were captured from inside a taxi. Looking back at the video now, August 2011, I wish I would of done certain things differently, tidying it up here and there, but I am still pleased with the final product.

@SanSpiral So hows the overall teaching quality at the university of sheffield, specifically the engineering department? and what do u generally feel, are the students satisfied there?

[SanSpiral]

@SanSpiral ...I don't think I could choose between the two cities to be honest, they're both different. If you want a more independent, diverse atmosphere then you should choose Manchester. On the other hand, if you want a more compact city that is very student orientated then you should choose Sheffield. Hope that helps.

@ninjaturtle205 Thanks for the comment. Sheffield is a great place to live, especially for a student. It's only a medium-sized city but has a huge student population which means the social life is great. It's very safe and clean too. I'm actually from Manchester and I'm currently doing my Master's there too. Manchester's a very vibrant city and huge in comparison. Everything is spread out whereas in Sheffield everything's in close proximity which means it's easier for travelling around...

Simply satisfy..at all

@traceradam Thanks for the comment. I know what you mean about Park Hill. During research I asked numerous nearby residents their opinions and 95% wanted the flats demolished, including the current regeneration councillor in the video. It's the first notable sight you see when arriving in Sheffield by road and rail, I just hope the developers do a decent job for Sheffield's sake.
