Trowbridge
Rooftop debut for student film
Budding director Donovan Adabashi took to one of the highest points in Trowbridge to make his film debut - thanks to Wiltshire County Council.
Donovan, 18, of Queens Close Trowbridge got the chance to use the roof of County Hall to film the opening sequence of his thriller. Donovan who is studying A level Media Studies at John of Gaunt School in Trowbridge, was joined by 18 year old Marty Morgan who will star in the Bourne Identity type film.
"I really wanted to use County Hall as the backdrop to the opening scene. The rest of the film will be shot in Bath, and the County Hall stone work will blend in well. It was really great that the health and safety team allowed us to use the roof and I got some good shots," explained Donovan, whose film will be part of his project work.
