Markets have always been an important part of city life, bringing together trade, culture, and social interaction. Unlike large retail stores, they provide a space where small businesses, independent traders, and local artisans can thrive, offering handmade goods, unique products, and a more personal shopping experience.

This study aims to explore why markets continue to survive and succeed despite the rise of online shopping and big retail chains. Camden Market has been chosen as a case study because of its rich history, a diverse range of vendors, and its role as both a local favourite and a major tourist attraction.

Our videos, which have been split into two different “teams” will have a different feel for each of the videos directly, this will be done not just through the editing style and the images shown, but by the content being shown as well. Each group will focus on a different part of market life – with one group focusing on the food and the experience of the food itself, whilst the other is focusing more directly on the vendors, people, and the market's history directly.
