      Because I've seen this kind of comment quite a lot, I might pin it and leave my response here.
      I like to do this for fun, I try to go out and brave my own anxiety. I HATE going outside and speaking to people. But I do it for my own personal development. It hurts a little when I see comments like this, but maybe you can show me your vox popping and maybe I can learn from you! Feel free to send a link to your work ! I'm always looking to improve.
      I speak to double the amount of people that I put in the video, since most people don't want to be filmed, but I have a nice chat with them anyway. The people that are okay with being filmed are put on camera. A lot of those people who didn't want to talk were from Sheffield.
      I cannot help the fact that some of the individuals are from other places visiting Sheffield on the particular day I chose to do this. However, I still wanted to find out what they thought about Sheffield. Their opinions are very VERY valuable to me. Outsider perspectives can be so useful and interesting. I wanted their voice to be heard, especially when they seemed to love Sheffield as much as I do.
      I really hoped this cleared a few things up. If you want to write a comment like this, please PLEASE ! Get in touch! YOU could be on the next show ! I want Sheffield perspectives, and if you like this content enough to leave a constructive criticism like this, then it's important to you. That's so so good and that voice needs to be heard, and your face on the screen!
      Hope this helps

      It wasn't really a criticism as such more like an observation. I always appreciate hearing what people from outside the city think of it so I enjoyed the video but as someone who's spent many years living here and seen a lot of change I would be interested to see what some of the locals think about it. As for having me on the next show I'm not sure that it would do much for your likes and subscribes🤔. @@EliseFreshwaterBlizzard

    Loved the video, there is no better place than Sheffield to strike up a coversation with a total stranger. Please, do it more often and before long you will get over your apprehension.
    It's great that you are purposefully going outside of your comfort zone to talk to people, it is essential if you want to work in journalism. Good Luck and thanks for the video.

      Thank you ! I walked up to people if they seemed open (weren't eating or in conversation) and basically said that I'm trying to become more confident by talking to strangers each day. If they were happy to talk to camera, that was an option, but for most of the interviews, they were not recorded and I found out a lot about the locals. :) I didn't want to pressure anyone, but if they were happy to be filmed, it was a nice bonus!

    It's a great place of you want your road closed off without proper consultation or ignoring the wishes of the residents.Its a great place if you don't want to get to Wisewood Estate or Bradfield because there is no bus service.Its never been a proper city like Manchester.The trams are great but very restricted in destination.LTNs are laughably called interactive neighborhoods.

  • @improvesheffield4824
    @improvesheffield4824 7 місяців тому +4

    As a born and bred Sheffielder, the city centre is a shithole! Inappropriate developments over the last 70 years or so has seen what was once probably the most impressive Victorian city in the U.K. turned into a mish mash of inhuman ad hoc buildings serviced by roads that go nowhere. The city centre seems to be no more than an experimental place for university architecture students to have their ridiculous designs brought to fruition and to give university so called ‘art’ students the brutalist blank canvasses for them to scrawl their graffiti on.
    Of course it’s not all bad; the Peace Gardens and Winter Gardens are a triumph, the Midland Station concourse is a pleasant space and the recent Grey to Green planting is an absolute joy to walk through but you really have to get out to the hilly suburbs, parks and countryside to appreciate the best of the city and what the city centre needs to aspire to to reach its full potential!

      Err......you will actually struggle now to find any Sheffielders in the city centre now, just listen to the conversations as you walk about, I always look at people approaching me, are these English? They look slightly english.......listen, listen, no! Its either students or foreigners. If I want to see and speak to any Sheffielders, I go to Job Lot, Parsons Cross. The estates are true Sheffield.

    I came to Sheffield as a student and never left. Why? The people are warm and friendly, kind and generous. The city centre is not full of chain stores( go to Meadowhall for that). So many trees and Parks. Endcliffe Park, Hillsborough, Bolehill, Graves, Meersbrook, Firth Park, Concord, many more. So many green areas around. Independent businesses setting up. Foodhalls for small businesses. Cutlery works, Kommune, Sheffield plate. There's a make do and mend spirit that I love ❤️

      @PabloGarcia-hc8xq 3 місяці тому +1

      Just read your comment and wondering what in this particular video made you think this. What do you mean by 'white proud'? Are you suggesting people should be ashamed or indeed not proud of being white? Have you ever visited Sheffield? You should - it's worth a weekend break.

    • @OrionBlaze
      @OrionBlaze 3 місяці тому

      @@PabloGarcia-hc8xq At its core, "white pride" centers around the belief that white people are superior to other races. This ideology is inherently racist and fuels discrimination and prejudice against people of color.
      It often ignores the historical and ongoing struggles faced by marginalized communities due to systemic racism and oppression.
