Nuneaton Moviemakers are back for 2024;
1st & 3rd Thursdays of the month at Higham Lane School
Next Meeting in person at Higham Lane school is at 7pm. See you there... Also the subs model is changing, so we're now paying an annual fee; which covers subs, and refreshments.
We're hoping to have a look at the draft script of Magnetic Attraction and work with casting and shooting dates. See us at the club for the latest information on this.
The BBC are dropping a series of workshops and masterclasses for people wanting to get started in technical roles in TV. The ones I've seen so far are in Birmingham and Glasgow and being live streamed. Sign-up for more information.
Bradford Movie Makers recently featured on Storyville Documentary on the BBC, (now on catch-up via iPlayer here). It follows Bradford's highs and lows starting just before covid and picks up after the Covid lockdown period.
They are fortunate enough to have their own club room, but it also needs looking after and upkeep.

Meeting ID: 847 0197 2435
Passcode: 123456

Abbey Theatre in the heart of Nuneaton, not only stage and screen but now other artistic leisure pursuits - yoga, calligraphy, flower arranging.
Regular stand-up comedy and theatrical shows.
Midsummer Movie Madness
Midsummer Movie Madness in its newest reincarnation - Midsummer Filmmaking Challenge
organised by the IAC took place last weekend.
The themes titles of "Plot Twist" and
"Script-tease" were kindly provided by guest judge Pip Critten.
This is the new home for the rush film-making challenge that used to be held in the Midlands over midsummer's day that met its demise due to Covid.
Happily this new event is open to all, not just us yamyams.
The event has been extended to run Friday night to Sunday afternoon submission and the finished films shown on a showcase Sunday evening, in place of the July IAC open film night.
