Historic buildings echo with music

Called All Points: North, the project showcases some of NI’s foremost digital content creators, musicians and electronic producers filmed against the backdrop of historic buildings located across Belfast, with a particular focus on North Belfast.

Supported by Arts Council of Northern Ireland and Department for Communities Organisations Emergency Funding programme, these short films celebrate the past, present and future of the history within the buildings, as well as the creative talent of some of Northern Ireland’s most promising musicians.

The team is made up of digital artists and creative arts managers; featuring singer songwriter Anthony Toner; electronic producer, DJ and label owner Timmy Stewart and creative arts director John Walls, joined by videographers including Ross McClean and Paul McParland.
