A talented Derry film-maker and a Derry journalist have collaborated on a video which perfectly captures the mood across the north west as people try to come to terms with the impact of COVID-19 locally.
The stunning footage for the ‘Covid-19 Ghost’ was shot by renowned videographer Charlie Oundo (Simba) who runs Simba Star Media.
Charlie teamed up with Derry Journal Senior Sports Reporter Simon Collins, who wrote and vocalised a narrative over the footage (full text below).
The film contrasts the city we all know so well, and all the things that we did and took for granted we could do up until a few short weeks ago, with the haunting silence of the streets today during the coronavirus lockdown.
The result has struck a chord with local people, and has now been viewed over 30,000 times since it was uploaded on Simba Media’s Vimeo channel less than a week ago.
