Re: 50 plus year old film !
Gosh I have not seen that one for ages!
It is a little long for today's tastes, but still charming.
Thanks

Re: Filming with an iphone
A professional cameraman once told me: "Ideally you should stick a reel of film in your head and blink 24 times a second."
But that doesn't help John ... we must have someone around who can answer him.

Re: Entering competitions..
I have noticed that some film makers do not pay much attention to the descriptions they supply for their films. A few even get their own film title wrong.
Howard is good at writing brief eye-catching notes and making sure strong stills appear beside his films.

Re: Entering competitions..
Glad you chose us and not Batumi IAFF !!
The shortage of distinct acronyms. It happens to "UNICA" as well ... there are many organisations called that.
Even "IAC" has possible confusion with organisations for adoption, aeronautics, film agents and more.

Re: Entering competitions..
Hi Michael, No, UNICA does not accept individual entries - it's competition is for national organisations, thus IAC chooses the films sent from UK. So far as I am aware Malta's GOLDEN KNIGHT is still going. Closing : 30 September, 25 October 2022 Festival: 27 November 2022 website: https://www.faceb...

Re: Entering competitions..
A Slovenian friend, Franc Kopič, has been putting his films into as many festivals as he can around the world. (I am guessing they are festivals with free entry) and has scores of awards, certificates and so on. A Polish amateur - I think the name was Henryk Lehnert - claimed to have more awards tha...

Don't worry about the QR codes. Those who use them often know how to handle them - and you have explained to others how to get apps and use them. The technophobes would not use an URL ! I was really trying to indicate that I liked the way it all looks. (Back to "Expressive Writing class 101 for...

Re: FVM October 2022 issue
Envelope half-open at the bottom! Cover striking. Not sure FVM has been serving anyone since 1932, though IAC has. Like the "National & International" tag - UK is four nations all by itself. Was there supposed to be a white "strikeout" line through the top line? Though I am w...

Re: Elvis
Rocket Man is fun. It gets a tad slow in the drug taking times in the USA but there are startlingly effective moments. I don't look for slavish accuracy in films which purport to deal in facts of any kind. If they are approximately right (so far as I am aware) that is fine. Biopics suffer from the ...

Re: A really amazing coincidence.
For those who may not know, Albert is the creator of a very famous animated film: RED TYPE An allegorical portrayal of the East-West conflict. A single sheet of paper acts as the only setting for this simple, but effective, piece of animated story-telling. The maker typed 25,000 characters onto 500 ...
