As much as we pride ourselves on creating original work here at OVFM, we are not above pinching existing concepts for our own use, as evident by the theme for our next cub evening – Desert Island Films. But, to avoid litigation by the estate of Roy Plomley, we’ve altered the format a little […]
It’s that dreaded time of year again – the annual screening of club members’ holiday films! Not that there is anything wrong with well shot, picturesque footage of foreign climes in all their glorious splendour but there is something about holiday films that seems to cause filmmakers to take off their sensible editor hat […]
No, I can’t believe it is 2020 already but it is and the start of a new year means concluding some unfinished business from 2019, namely the TOP TEN competition! The three individual qualifying rounds were held over the latter half of the year and from that the ten films with the highest scores […]
RUBBISH We kick off 2020 with our first Film to a Theme project and one we think you can have some fun with. Rubbish might conjure up what we throw away on a daily basis that ends up stinking the house out and being a eyesore on the landscape. But this is just […]
And so we enter the final stretch of 2019 with our last regular meeting of the year, the final round of our annual club competition films! Offering club members a chance to test their creativity in three separate categories that pay tribute to past club members, this is one of the more unique and […]

NON VERBAL Sorry to break the peace and quiet but since our last Film To A Theme Project the committee have decided to throw another one our way. This time the theme is Non Verbal. In case this sounds like a daunting topic, remember cinema had existed for nearly 30 years before sound […]
OVFM Autumn Film Show 2019 One of the most important dates in the OVFM calendar is our annual Autumn Show where we share the fruits of our labours from a year of busy filmmaking, along with some gems from our archive with the public. As the nights are getting darker and colder you’ll need something to brighten […]
Okay folks we are ready for the second round of the TOP TEN 2019 competition!

For those of you absent last […]
