Very excited to share a few screenshots from the new 50th Anniversary film we made with the mighty SYFR Comms, about South Yorkshire and what makes it such a special place. Featuring a wonderful poem, read by Sheffield’s own 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿England Lioness .morgan.
We were also extremely lucky to record with the excellent South Yorkshire Police Band who played Concierto de Aranjuez which accompanies the film.
We covered over 35x locations across South Yorkshire from in Rotherham, to , to to help bring the poem to life. It's amazing to see the film has already reached over 70k views across the different platforms.
