VIDEO: Super-stylish movie captures Northern Quarter’s ‘essence’ in filmmaker’s love letter to Manchester hotspot

A Manchester filmmaker has captured summer time in the Northern Quarter in all its glory in an online feature video.

The Quarter shows the trendy area of town over a two-day period and is the brainchild of Salford University graduate Charlie Watts.

Already attracted more than 2,500 plays, since it was uploaded in June, the slick three-minute video shows the hustle and bustle of a sun-drenched Northern Quarter.

The Stockport-based producer spoke about his inspiration for the video and said: “I wanted to shoot something that would try and capture the essence and atmosphere of what this small area within the city centre is all about.

“This is a tribute to my favourite part of the great city that is Manchester.”

Check back to hear from Charlie on his creation next week, his work is available to view on his tumblr page.
