We received a call at 8am on Sunday 2nd October to enquire if we were available to capture and produce a short video on the demolition of the Fernbank Mill Chimney in Barnoldswick. Knowing a good story when we see one, we agreed and scrambled our gear together and headed down to the mill as it was due to be felled at 1pm the same day.
The resulting ten minute video features exclusive interviews with those involved and footage of the chimney's final moments with the creaks and groans of the chimney's death throes providing an eerie sound track.
The felling of the chimney marked the end of 98 years of local history and was witnessed by many local people who turned up to watch the day unfold.
The entire video was edited and handed to the client to present to the public within 2 days of being filmed. It went on to be screened in high definition during a Newsreel prior to each of the main feature films at the local cinema.
