IAC DISCUSSION FORUMS

Some people are taking the line that they will wait for their results before deciding whether or not to attend BIAFF. That seems sad to me. If your film does not get shown, go to the festival and see what is chosen. What do the judges rate higher than your work? Can you learn from that? If your film...

Thanks for the info, Howard. I did not have time to unearth detailed prices when I responded to Geoff's message. We are looking forward to Birmingham and being in the Crescent Theatre itself, rather than the small downstairs studio - as we were for the first sessions in recent years. BTW I understan...

Check your hotel prices, Geoff. That seems very expensive for the Premier Inn. Try booking agencies like booking.com or trivago.co.uk ... I hate driving in the city so come by train and could complete the journey by tram, but usually chicken out and grab a cab because of the luggage. Check with Howa...

IT'S HERE !!!

FVM - packed with lots of goodies landed on the doorstep just now!

We heard the other night that there had been problems at the printers:
they were waiting for an expected CEMRIAC magazine which did not come
they received an unexpected box of SoCo magazines ... which they mislaid.

Perhaps they had a great New Year party ...

Not yet arrived in Batheaston.

Is there really no mention of this on the Haywards Heath Movie Makers website?

This is indeed sad news. Ron was a powerhouse on the IAC Council. At regional events he and his wife, Joy, were always warmly welcomed ... not least because of the amazing teas Joy provided.

He was a fine film maker.

Nice try, Albert! Actually I suspect there may be one or two other competitors. But the notion of categories within a competition is worth considering. Ned has long argued for a "student" category. The current age divisions are broadly intended to separate young people at school (under 18)...

I received a link today that contains the annual report and accounts: https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=b327df7e1c211534&id=B327DF7E1C211534%21s2bcb46c8a9444810a9fc3ec4d798bccb&ithint=folder&redeem=aHR0cHM6Ly8xZHJ2Lm1zL2YvYy9iMzI3ZGY3ZTFjMjExNTM0L0VzaEd5eXRFcVJCSXFmdy14TmVZdk1zQmhrenBOMVJxR...

So far Jan (as webmaster) has only just received the notice of the AGM.

Good question!

Lovely! I'm scratching my head about how to respond Laughter.

Thanks, Albert.

Geoff:

Yes, Dave, the IAC is shrinking, but BIAFF is still maintaining a high level of entries.

I was concerned about the number of people attending BIAFF in person.
