Jan 16 |
One Minute Film Making. Tonight the teams that were decided at the last meeting will make their one-minute films. |

Members Film Making Gadgets. All members are asked to bring along their gadgets that can be of help in film making and talk about them for a few minutes. Time will also be made available for those groups that did not complete the filming of their one minute films at the last meeting, to do so tonight, whilst the rest of us can be social in the bar. |
Feb 6 |
Critiquing Films. Although some members are glad to have their films critiqued by other members, so that they can make better films in the future, some members are not. Tonight those members who are, are invited to bring along any film (or part of a film) they have made and have it critiqued by other members. The committee feel strongly that the more opportunities there are for analysing members films and discussing both the good and the bad points, the better film makers we will become. |
Feb 20 |
Ideas for Our Next Club Film. Both Roger Brenton and Ian Marriott will be discussing scripts they have written for the next club film. These and other members' ideas for our next film will be discussed in an effort to determine the film we are actually going to make. The rest of the evening will be social. |
