A Tour of Guides

Here is an example of a video we have produced recently about tour guides in the beautiful city of Oxford. This was completed during our training at the Oxford Film and Video Makers (OFVM) course in Oxford.

A Tour of Guides is a documentary about tourism in Oxford, with a focus on guided tours. The film shows a range of guides involved in different methods of seeing Oxford: by foot, bus, or canal. But which method is best? On a bus tour, the tourist will get to learn "a little about a lot", whereas if the tourist has a specific interest to learn about the University of Oxford, the porter may be of more assistance. If you feel more energetic, you can get up close and personal with the sites and sounds of the city, or have a relaxing ride on a barge on the canals of Oxford, showing a unique side of Oxford that most tourists do not see, and finally a special interview with a porter from one of Oxford Universities most famous colleges. As you will see, all methods of touring Oxford are explored, allowing the viewer to make up their own mind about what they want to learn about Oxford and how they could go about doing this.You will see some beautiful sites of the city in this short documentary, including interviews with tourists who visit and students who live there. So sit back, relax and get ready for us to give you a "A Tour of Guides".

With big thanks to OFVM (http://www.ofvm.org/), the course advisers Sharon Woodward and Richard Duriez. Also thank you to Dr Sung Hee Kim who was also involved with this production.
