Since graduating from The Northern School of Art’s BA (Hons) Film, TV and Theatre Production course, Rory Norton has built a career working across film, television and live production, while co-running Green Lane Productions & Media alongside fellow alumni from the course.
In 2022, Rory debuted his first short film, Pretty Little Fears, which was nominated for Best First Time Film. His experience since has spanned feature films, short films, music videos, documentaries, commercials, live event recordings and promotional content.
His credits include the feature film Christmas & Chaos, starring Jason Isaacs and directed by Jamie Adams, as well as the second series of Smoggie Queens. He has also worked on high-end commercial productions for luxury hotels overseas.
Another highlight of Rory’s career has been Stepney Western, a BFI Doc Society Fund-supported documentary by artist and filmmaker Harry Lawson. The project explored the lives of young inner-city horse riders from Stepney Bank Stables in Newcastle, combining documentary footage, archival material and experimental filmmaking. Stepney Western was exhibited at Newcastle Contemporary Art as part of a wider exhibition and subsequently screened at the Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival.
