Update. The breakaway to Scotland didn't happen. Something, as it always does, came up!

Re: IAC Website

Dear Martin ... welcome to the ranks of "daft buggers" who have kept IAC afloat for so many decades! Each of those tasks: magazine editor, webmaster and house mover is a full-time job-and-a-half! Are you seeing sense and moving to Scotland?!?>! WE're massive Scotlandophiles. And in fact, ...

Re: IAC Website

The issue with site certificates has been resolved, thanks to Richard Palmer of Merula. IT IS PERFECTLY SAFE TO BROWSE THE NEW IAC WEBSITE AT THE SAME ADDRESS: WWW.THEIAC.ORG.UK Thank you Dave. I've already removed the members only page. It was just a quick trial. But may re-appear once I've worked...

Re: IAC Website

I'm with Michael here. Online mags never last long. I may make it available to members via the website but I would hope that the print version will continue. There used to be a UK high street magazine called (i think) Moviemaker. I once wrote an article for it. Anyway, due to cash crisis they decide...

IAC Website

Ladies & Gentlemen, foneddigion a boneddigesau, damen und herren. As of today, the IAC has a new website. It's a work in progress, plenty of I's to dot etc. And stuff still to port across. The old website has not been deleted, it's in archive form behind the new one. I'd love to hear your though...

Re: BIAFF 2024 - yes or no?

Please can you email them to me at editorFVM@arenig.co.uk Can't guarantee to use them - not a lot of space left - but if ...

Re: BIAFF 2024 - yes or no?

I was unable to make BIAFF (again!) this year. It always seems to clash with a Goalball Tournament, and as the coach... my team needs me. :-) I'd be very interested to hear anyone's thoughts on my film 'The Little Ones' that was screened on Friday night. I'm just making some final tweeks to it, so ...

Re: BIAFF 2024 - yes or no?

I hope they didn't mark it down just because they didn't like it. Whether we like a film or not shouldn't have anything to do with it (though I imagine we are all influenced by our likes and dislikes). Comedy has the biggest problem here. If you don't like the humour, how can you possibly tell if t...

Re: BIAFF 2024 - yes or no?

But "Elise", dear me. Imagine it will not be screened at BIAFF! Last year it was not shown either. And "Elise" (in my opinion) deserved more than 5 stars! And this time it is also entertaining for those who hate mysterious movies. It didn't need any subtitling nor any narration....

Re: Where next for the IAC?

I'm gonna make my suggestion again (which I have done a number of times in the past)... I've always said that written feedback on a BIAFF entry, should be provided to IAC Members only. BIAFF is one of only a handful of festivals in the world that provide written feedback for free, in fact it might ...

Re: 14th Edinburgh Short Film Festival Open For Entries - International Showcases & Awards

Too late for the Jan/Feb FVM but I've left myself a note for the issue after which I start work on soon.
