London Minutes

The 'ideal' Dogme -
1) Shots should be 1, 3 or 6 Seconds - either combinations of these or all same (e.g. 20 shots 3 seconds each). 1 shot of 60 seconds also allowed.
2) As far as possible, edit 'in camera'.
3) Minimal, preferably no use of filters and non-natural sound.
4) Minimal, preferably no use of artificial light (especially set-ups) or staged scenes.
5) Should be shot in one day.
6) Try not to add a commentary, let the video speak for itself. Just show.
The reality -
1) Camera doesn't always stop exactly at whole second (and neither does real-life) so as near as possible to it.
2) 'As far as possible...'
3) Unless really enhances, but should be avoidable.
4) See 3).
5) As near as possible to same day and time.
6) At very least no spoken commentary.

#1:


So basically one-minute videos of London, aiming to just show what is happening, just hopefully give the feel of it.
