We will then talk about how a new World Trade Centre is being built called 'One World Trade Centre' and how it will be completed next year. We will inlude the following picture:

We are going to use 2 cameras so that we have more footage to use and some diversity within the shots we use.
For the interview with the public, we are going to film on site (in Oldham).
