This lady was part of the production team working on the Granada TV production of “Strike” about the rise of the Solidarity movement in Poland, filmed in Manchester in 1981.
I didnt disturb people as I photographed them as I was aware I had to stay low key as I documented the process of making a factual based drama. She is either working with the script team or is part of continuity to ensure elements match across scenes. It was a 16mm film production, sound was captured using quarter inch tape on Nagra recorders. Granada was a unionised company and I was asked if I was a union member by one of the crew, Adam’s dad (the writer) had invited us and we were just students with no intention of profiting from the images so we got a pass. Years later I think the photos would be of value to the crew and I would be very happy to share them, if you know this lady please let her know, would love to know more about her work.
