Film production company that has worked with rapper Eminem is on location in Bury St Edmunds




Film crews have been spotted at several locations in Bury St Edmunds including a gym, church and residential street.

Mystery surrounds what the filming is for, and whether any famous names are involved, however a letter to residents mentioned a music video.

A letter from production company Ammolite Machine – which has worked with the likes of US rappers Eminem and Jelly Roll – asked residents in the Bell Meadow area of Bury, off Fornham Road, if they could offer up their home for filming, in exchange for a fee of £500.

Filming has been taking place in Bell Meadow, with a bin lorry part of the production, and crews have also been seen at St Mary’s Church in the town and at Fitta Bodies Gym, on Thingoe Hill.

And production trucks, offering facilities for the team, have also set up in Ram Meadow car park, in Cotton Lane.

A post on Fitta Bodies’ Facebook page said the gym would be closed Monday and Thursday this week.

The letter from the location manager to residents in Bell Meadow said: “We are looking for a family/residential home to film inside and outside of.

“The scene will involve a family watching TV together and a teenager in their bedroom. The home can’t be too modern inside and would preferably have elements dating back to the 90’s or even the 80’s but this is not essential.”

The day’s filming at the house took place on Monday.
