Plug: Rococo Film Night - 20th August 2008 at 9pm

On the 20th August, Rococco on St Mary’s Street (where the Toucan used to be) will host a night of local independent films. Quailty short films as well as local music videos will be played on the venue’s three large widescreen TV’s with an excellent sound system and relaxed vibe, between breaks of music and socializing. Entry is FREE and due to the expected student draw drinks offers will be available – so even if you're not into film the night will be enjoyable.
The night is the second of a possible monthly event, so of course, if you yourself are a filmmaker come along and see if you’d want to submit your work for future nights!

Plug: Extras needed in Blaenau Gwent on 04/08/08
Friend of the blog Anthony 'AJ' James of PanikAttak Productions passes on the following request:
Hey All,
I’m about to shoot a 10 minute film called ‘Running Pains’ for It’s My Shout!
Over the past five years, It’s My Shout has developed into a National Short Film Scheme and is supported by the industry. To date, thousands of people have participated in the scheme from across South and West Wales and have developed the skills which have enabled them to enter the film and TV workforce, in their preferred craft area. Many have found ongoing employment in the industry as a direct result of the scheme.
The climax of the film will be shot on Monday 4th August in Blaenau Gwent. I'm looking for people to play supporters, coaches and athletes at an Inter School Sports Day.
I can't offer any money, I'm afraid, but the short will be broadcast on ITV in November before being entered into the top film festivals around the world.
You will of course get a credit and a DVD copy of the film.
If you are interested, please contact me as soon as possible on panikattakproductions*at*hotmail.com.
Cheers
AJ

Plug: Film Night at Rococo
from 9pm on Wednesday 18th June 2008
Friend of the blog Ryan Owen passes on this message:
On the 18th June, Rococo on St Mary’s Street (where the Toucan used to be) will host a night of local independent films. Quality short films – from comedy and thriller to arthouse – as well as local music videos will be played on the venue’s three large widescreen TV’s with an excellent sound system and relaxed vibe, between breaks of alternative music and socializing. Entry is FREE and due to the expected student draw drinks offers will be available – so even if you're not into film the night will be enjoyable. Local filmmakers whose work will be shown include:
Will Hitchins
Oliver Milburn
Ryan Owen
Tom Severn
Oz Thakkar
Si Truss
… and more.
If you like films of any kind there’ll be something there you enjoy. If you know any of the filmmakers come along to support them – and local film. The night will also act as a tester for a possible monthly event, so of course, if you yourself are a filmmaker come along and see if you’d want to submit your work for future nights!
