New Video Explores the Spirit of Asheville
One of the newest editions to the store’s collection of videos is a DVD entitled “The Spirit of Asheville“. This video is a 73 minute overview of one of the state’s most popular cities. It includes amazing photography of the landscape, architecture and artwork and takes you on a virtual tour of the downtown area.
A typical soundtrack for this type of video would be what I like to call, “elevator music” but this DVD takes a different approach. The whole video is narrated by people on the streets of Asheville. The people interviewed talk about what they love about the city and what makes it special. Some of the individuals interviewed have lived in Asheville their whole lives while others are new to the community and share what it is that brought them there.
The Spirit of Asheville does a good job portraying the cultural diversity of the city but at the same time emphasizing the attitude of acceptance that is found there. It’s a great review of this unique city and I would recommend it for people interested in relocating or visiting the Asheville area.
Hi, I am going to include a link to your site on our blog. I had already written a short bit about the 75th anniversary. I tweeted it, also. Our twitter i.d. is “floralasheville”.
