London Tube difficulties

Whilst doing our research major difficulties and complications have occurred already. One of the main ones being the restrictions on filming on the tube. For example in order to film on the tube, you need to apply for a permit, which comes at a cost. 

Filming finances ranged from £40 to £400, also we the added financial fee of £150 if you wish to publish or broadcast the footage. Me and Amelia can not afford these finances and are very reluctant to pay these.

Also, the guidelines on the London underground website ( http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/corporate/media/lufilmoffice/ ) also present further problems for our filming:

For example the restriction on begging, busking and anti social behaviour will mean we will have to jeopardise some of our content to our video, and wont be able to film it to the best of our ability. These restrictions made me and Amelia re evaluate our plans. We came to the conclusion to change the location. Instead we decided to use Cambridge to film.
