Info
The project recorded the experiences of South Asian migrants who came to Coventry from the 1940s to the 1960s. The focus of the work was an extensive programme of video interviewing and the collection of photographs and other personal memorabilia. In total more than 60 oral history interviews were carried out and more than 600 photographs collected. From this material the project was able to create a book, a website and an exhibition.
Testimonial
. . . Macrojuice have proved to be very reliable and helpful with not only the design process of the website, but also with help and advice on issues surrounding the development of a new website. The team offered a personal and professional service in developing a website according to our specifications, whilst adding their own innovative ideas and suggestions. I would highly recommend this company and I would not hesitate to use them for any future developments.Dr Pippa Virde
