MAKING MUSIC IN THE OLD NATWEST

Resident video production company Candy Jar Films have been busy filming their latest project and the Old NatWest Bank Building has played its part.

The team are working with local singer/songwriter talent Michael Mosindi on a music video for his latest track, "Just Let It Go".

Filming took place over three days around Cardiff in a variety of the city's hotspots such as Sophia Gardens in the city centre and the Norwegian Church in Cardiff Bay.

The second day of filming was located in our Grand Banking Hall (pictured above) as Michael and a team of talented dancers performed a modern and energetic routine for the video creating an impressive blend of old and new.

BBC CHOOSES THE OLD NATWEST BUILDING

The Old NatWest Building was alight with stars last Monday as the cast and crew of ‘Upstairs Downstairs’ took to the banking hall for their latest shoot.
Former Spooks star Keeley Hawes was present, filming her scenes in the grand banking hall, which had been restored to a glimpse of its former glory, thanks to the talented set-design team who had transformed the space into a 1930’s Berlin cafe.

These pictures show the terrific work of the production team and remind us of the hall’s grandeur and fantastic architecture.

The stars of ‘Casualty’ also visited the building recently for a shoot outside, demonstrating the attraction of the site as a versatile filming location. They will be returning again in January to film additional scenes inside.
