I headed down to the market in North Cross Road in East Dulwich one Saturday morning a few weeks ago to hang out with my camcorder and see what shots I could grab. I had such a great time chatting with the local traders and their mates – everyone was so friendly and seemed to enjoy mugging for the camera.

What was really distracting throughout was the wonderful smell of the hog roast you see at the start of the film. I couldn’t wait to finish shooting and get some take-home boxes for lunch. And I can tell you – it was as yummy as it looked….

The soundtrack is “Hotcake Syrup” by Derek K. Miller from the Podsafe Music Network at http://music.podshow.com

hey that’s great Yang May, really captures the v groovy northcross road saturday market vibe. It really has blossomed into a thriving street over the last few years. Your film is a great reportage piece – and makes it seem as big as Camden market! from cheese, hats to records and retro furniture.
