Re: When is the best time for festivals and competitions?
Taking part in more than one competition with one particular film has its disadvantages. After some time the judges/audience have already seen your film more than once. Each time the effect of "power" disappears/fades away a little bit. There aren't any surprises in your film anymore. The...

Re: Music!?!?
Imagine a world where no-one used pre-recorded music for their films and had to generate it themselves or invite friends to make music for them without a fee. Would it actually mean better films? Dave Own music I am very lucky. One of the members of my club composed music for my films "Breendo...

Re: When is the best time for festivals and competitions?
A conversation with a couple of festival organisers today set us all wondering when is the appropriate time to have these events. If we assume the IAC Competition is pretty much a fixture at the end of January - just to give us a starting point ... ... Of course the Cotswold and Guernsey festival p...

Re: The Cost of Film Making
So what does it cost to make a film? Some people will swear it costs almost nothing. Go on holiday, shoot footage, edit it and add music. Film. Others will speak of travel expenses, catering, prop and costume hire, crane hire, generator hire and so on. Dave This morning I received the AMMA Monitor,...

Good suggestion from Michael ... A firm may not be able to let you have a permanent room of your own but it MIGHT let you have a room when needed and the use of a locked cupboard for equipment.

I know how sad you feel Willy as my own club had to fold this year but that was because we didn't have enough people to keep it going. Casablanca is Moroccon town Billy Boy ! You're joking ! Casablanca is one of the major towns in Morocco, but of course it is also the best editing machine in the wo...

Can you find another room for less rent? 2280 Euros is roughly about £43 per week I think- which is steep. Useful suggestions Thanks for your very kind words and excellent suggestions, my friends. It is not 2,280 euros, but 2,880 euros, Billy ! We have about 60 members at the moment, but about 25 o...

I am very sad
I am sad. I am very sad. I have been president of my filmclub for 20 years. In 2010 my club will be 50 and then it's called a "royal club". However, I fear that I will have to dissolve my club. Clubhouse free About 20 years ago our mayor told us that we could use our clubhouse without pay...

I explain that if you as an individual are having a good time it will show in your character and your performance will be all the more better. The camera will capture the energy you bring on set.
