For people who like making movies

Our first two meetings of the year were held online using Zoom.

In January we had the 2023 Runner-Up competition which was won by Clive Blackmore with “Tyneham”.

February saw a change of programme as there were no entries for the planned competition.

Instead we watched a Youtube video made by the “Blackbeltbarrister “ about legal aspects of filming in public places.

His channel is a very useful resource for all manner of legal issues.

In March we had our first meeting in St Georges’ Church Centre with Open Competition No. 1 won by John Greene with “Cotswold Sanctuary” and an Animation Competition open to all comers which was won by Larry Hall with “Secret Agent Man”.

March also saw the Inter-Club competition which, this year, was won by Bristol with their film “Izzy”.

Worcester came second with “Exploring Photography” and Gloucester came third with “Laxey Wheel” .

On April 8th we ran an Archive Show which was open to the general public. This is the first public show we have given since the Covid outbreak.  46 visitors came along to see the show which was compiled and presented by Mike Morris.

Films included the visit to Gloucester by Queen Elizabeth II in 1995 and the uncovering of the Woodchester Roman mosaic pavement in 1973.  

Our meeting in May is a presentation of films and a talk by Bristol filmmaker Gordon Young.
