Last time at Chapter MovieMaker: May medley

For those who were unable to attend, here's what you missed:

1) Dave Beynon revealed The People Behind The Animals in a making-of doc for Ryan Hooper's forthcoming The Hidden Animals;
2) Wito Werner urged us to Meet Paul Davies in his documentary about a local snooker professional;
3) Dafydd Weeks brought his Little Pig, an experimental porcine short;
4) June Campbell-Davies' carefully plotted Escape blended noir with elements of dance;
5) Anthony James gave us The Big Pitch, his winning promo for the Movie Mogul Fund then concluded the evening with his short comedy Tomorrow Never Dais.

And much fun was had by all.

Screening: Monday 5th May 2008

It's the first Monday of the month, so it must be time for a MovieMaker screening. Would 6:30pm in Chapter Screen 2 be ok for you? If you'd like to show a film, give me a shout or just turn up early with a shiny copy on DVD or Mini-DV.
