Project update

Project since presentation has gone a bit slower. I'm trying to bang out another video dealing with the more non tangible aspects of theft. Having computer issues just now but hopefully will be sorted tomorrow and get one up asap. I am finding that filming parts of my project is helping me understand it a bit better and will hopefully help others aswell

Theft1.0

Heres a small intro video that I have made using footage I have been collecting throughout this project. Its a basic intro as to what the theme of my project is about.

Food alert

I recently found some stolen goods parked beside a fire exit beside a local shop on george street. Meat Theft seems to be on the rise at the moment and this evidence shows it. 4-5 packets of chicken, along with scotts porridge oats, several packets of eggs and muller rice. Lets hope this wasnt a failed attempt for a spot on "ready steady cook"! £30 quids of goods lying in a pool of what smelt like human urine...i hope this aint sold on....

This picture truly shows one of the 2 main causes of shoplifting, alcohol. People nicking to help feed their habit..

Progress report

Over the past week iv been ripping a video which should be on the site monday or tuesday reflecting on theft and the areas which surround it. Currently doing a powerpoint for tuesdays minI presentation to the dragons.

Main areas picked up this week.

-Meat theft!, seems to be on the rise, scumbags nicked meat from markets and selling it in dodgy pubs.

-Eastern Europe culture, Knife theft, i'm going to have to look into this more as there seems to be an issue with this culture bringing in knifes into the U.K when emigrating, using them for self defense and also force.

Update

Things are at a crawling pace just now. Although I was contacted buy an agency regarding an interview with them so thats a bonus. This could give me a big boost with my primary research and could point me in the right direction.

Bicycle tree

Heres a small video I found whilst browsing 'youtube' for ideas. It seems to be very effective and looks pretty sweet within its surroundings. Although I find it might be a bit of an overkill to for its intended use and there could be a better way of securing bicycles.
