Edited Collections

The Elstree Project’s edited collections bring together selected extracts from our oral-history interviews, organised around particular subjects, productions and areas of studio history.

These short films allow visitors to hear directly from the actors, filmmakers, technicians, craftspeople and studio staff who worked across Elstree and Borehamwood’s studios. Together, their memories reveal both the celebrated productions made there and the everyday experiences of the people who brought them to life.
