I suppose most clubs have holiday competitions because it is generally on holiday when members (at least those who work)have the time to actually make a film. In the early days of the hobby foreign travel would be a bit of a novelty but nowadays so many people have visited so many places that it is ...

Film Festival
I was having a look at the web-site for the BBC Film Festival which is being held in Glasgow on 9th Sept. and was intrigued by the picture of the presenter as it looks to me as if he is posing with a Super 8 camera. It looks like it could be a Canon but I might be wrong - what do you all think? http...

I know that some people favour them but as someone who does a bit of judging I dislike scoring systems for different aspects of a movie and never use them as I think it makes the process too clinical. What weighting would you give to each element? Should technical aspects carry more marks than the a...

My main interests other than amateur movies are: photography, cinema, TV, reading (fiction/non fiction), gardening, theatre, writing, walking, audio visual, travel..... I suppose I've always been a bit of a one for hobbys etc and I've come to the conclusion that there would be a lot less stress in t...

I think one of the problems is that cinemas make quite a lot of money from the sale of pop corn, soft drinks, nachos, hot dogs etc (is this healthy eating?) so I don't suppose there is much chance of managers stopping people from taking it into the auditorium. At least around here the punters manage...

I guess I'm lucky in having access to some very well set up cinemas (including multiplexes) where picture, sound quality, comfort and cleanliness are generally of a high standard.

I am a big admirer of both Steven Spielberg and George Lucas though perhaps for different reasons. I am a fan of Speilberg for his sheer film making skills, though I have to say I prefer his earlier work to some of his more recent movies, and Lucas for his pioneering technical work on the Star Wars ...
