OVFM Club Meeting Tuesday April 28th 2015

Posted on April 23, 2015April 26, 2015 by Lee Relph

It’s club meeting time again and this week we will be looking at the fruits of your labours under the banner of our latest project “A Close Shave”!

In case you missed the announcement you can find it along with all the details HERE.

If you have a film ready or maybe you have one in your archives that might be applicable to the topic then we ask that you please let us know by replying either to this post or to the announcement post confirming this as well as stating the length of your film, as it is of huge help to our projectionist, to know how many films we have and whether we can allot time for possible discussion after each film.

And don’t forget that we can now screen films on Blu-ray format so if you want your work to be appreciated in HD now you can! 🙂

Project evenings often bring out the best in of club members and this one should hopefully prove to be no exception.

See you on Tuesday!

New OVFM Project – Close Shave

Posted on April 15, 2015November 4, 2019 by Lee Relph

CLOSE SHAVE

Hello again and here we are with another exciting film project for you to participate in.

The subject this time is “Close Shave” which sounds like a very fertile premise for a short film. As ever, how this is interpreted is down to you – you can make a thriller, a horror, a slapstick comedy or your own version of Sweeney Todd – so let your imaginations run wild and flex those creative muscles!

Remember this can be a solo endeavour or a group effort, so if you only have an idea or a story there is bound to be someone else within the club who would be willing help you out on the practical and technical front.; conversely if you have the camera and equipment but no story idea, why not see if someone has one you can help out with?

Whatever you choose to do, we look forward to seeing what you come up when we screen your films at the club meeting on TUESDAY APRIL 28th

Thanks for reading, good luck to all who participate and we look forward to seeing the fruits of your labours on the 28th of April!

OVFM Club Meeting Tuesday April 14th 2015 – The AGM

Posted on April 9, 2015November 4, 2019 by Lee Relph

After a few weeks of meetings held at a change of venue we are back at our regular haunt of St Augustine’s for the OVFM AGM 2015.

This is one of the most important nights in our club meeting calendar as it is the night where not only do we elect our committee but YOU get the chance to have your voice heard and make suggestions for what you want to see happen in our club for the next year to come.

First, the election of the Committee and as you all should know by now, yours truly has stepped down from the Committee so there is one guaranteed new place available for anyone to step up and fill, providing you have a nomination or second from another club member.

Of course ALL other committee members will be standing for re-election so, with all roles temporarily vacated while the votes are considered, meaning we could see a complete change in the line-up if anyone else wishes to stand as Chairman or Competition Officer or as an ordinary member.

The Committee as it currently stands is:

Chairman – Simon Earwicker

Vice Chairman – Sam Brown

Treasurer – David Laker

Secretary – Freddy Beard

Competitions Officer – Brenda Wheatley

Ordinary Members:

Reg Lancaster

Annabelle Lancaster

Ian Menage

Andy Watson

*NB: Mike Shaw is our Press officer but is not a committee member as per the new rule added to the constitution in an EGM in 2013.

The second portion of the evening is Member’s Voices where all club members are given a platform to air their grievances, concerns, ask questions or make suggestions on how to improve club matters, meetings and other facets in the OVFM universe. We also will be canvassing for your suggestions for club evenings and club projects so please get your thinking caps on and see what wonderful and creative ideas you can supply us with to make 2015 a memorable, eventful and productive year for OVFM!

If you haven’t already got one, a copy of the Agenda can be downloaded HERE.

Remember without the club members there is no club so please be there on Tuesday for the AGM and make your voice heard.
