Norwich Cathedral film gets attention from Russell Crowe

by Tola Mbakwe

Norwich Cathedral has launched its new video called 'Norwich... a story' as part of a campaign to boost tourism in the city.

So far the video, which was launched on 21st July, has gotten more than 275,000 views on Facebook and kudos from Hollywood actor and film producer Russell Crowe.

The video was created by BAFTA-winning and Emmy-nominated filmmaker Rob Whitworth.

Whitworth is a 35 year old photographer who studied at the Norwich School of Design (now Norwich University of the Arts) and gifted the video to the Cathedral after working on the project throughout the spring.

He had dubbed the video a 'Flow Motion' video.

Whitworth said: "Norwich is a beautiful city with so much history. I've had a great time exploring and filming some of the sights during this project, experiencing some of the best views of Norwich with the aim of capturing them in the best light.

"When you live somewhere it's easy to not appreciate it, so it was cool to see a familiar place with fresh eyes."

James Shelton, Marketing Manager at Norwich Cathedral, said: "We're a proud bunch in this part of the world and I'm confident that anyone who has an affinity for the city will want to see it.

"We hope the video will be shared as widely as possible... VisitNorwich are doing excellent work with the ongoing City of Stories campaign and I am delighted that the video has created an opportunity to further build on our excellent working relationship with them."
