Last time at Chapter MovieMaker: unusual individuals

The evening started with a bang: after this month's intro hurtled through A Day In The Life of a Chapter MovieMaker, Ryan Owen raced into first place with 90MPH, a music video for Tom Williams & The Boat. Stephen Hanks' elegant Water Under Bridge was next, with Sheila from Rabya Burris sneaking up behind. Ben Reed showed us something you can do On Your Own, then Steven Toozer introduced everyone to the visionary Glyn Pooley. Matthew Hackett's The Chase provided a zippy intermission before another documentary from Mr Toozer, this time looking at Canty Justice. In an apocalyptic climax, Ryan Owen returned with Spencer McGarry to warn us about their Great Enemies. Which are robots, by the way.

Last time at Chapter MovieMaker: inexplicability

As is now tradition, the evening began with a filmed intro: this month's self-indulgent folly was inspired by the many activities available at Chapter and the early work of Mr Wesley Wales Anderson. Keri Collins then teased us with trailers for his upcoming detective mystery Colwmbo, Robin Mitchell investigated the state of being There But Not There: Absence in Cambodia, a shorter cut of a feature-length documentary, and in a third-act twist, Emmanuel Okolo brought The Stranger into the room.

Screening: Monday 3rd May 2010

From 6pm in Chapter Cinema 2. You know, the red one.

Last time at Chapter MovieMaker: show tunes

With your regular host making trouble in Manhattan, Friend of MovieMaker AJ graciously stepped in to compère a particularly musical night. Track 1: a video for Greyhounds by Masters In France from local wunderkind Ryan Owen. Then, a trailer for Shade of Grey from Cyrus Mirza'Shafa, followed by Natalie Clements' story of a Snowman. The dynamic duo Ewan Jones Morris and Casey Raymond hit us with a double whammy: new videos for Barehed by the The Yellow Moon Band and Shoeing the Bones by Cate Le Bon. And the climactic show-stopper: a video for Man in My Mind by Race Horses from Ben Reed.

Last time at Chapter MovieMaker: all over the place

This month's intro provided a sporty start to the evening, then our journey began: from Museum, Park Place with Calum Daly and friends, then onwards to Nice Beaches courtesy of Shafeeq Vellani. John Shackleton introduced us to One Of The Crowd, Luke Andrews declared Vive La France, and Halleh Handji brought The Hollywood Losers along. The evening concluded with Massimo Salvato unveiling his Muse. Inspiring stuff.

### UPDATE: Now sold out! ###

Last time at Chapter MovieMaker: there was blood

Things kicked off with a psychotic intro, quickly followed by Matthew Walters' fuzzy depiction of The French Revolution. Next up was Casey Raymond and Ewan Jones Morris' meaty video for Interstate by The Automatic. At the 11th Hour Rhiannon Tate shocked us but then gave everyone a lovely Ice Cream. Finally, a horrific climax: with Helter Skelter Rachel Dax and Victoria Annabelle Rodway captured the Manson Family in a black box.

Last Monday at Chapter MovieMaker: non-psychological cinema

The evening began with a trip to the third dimension as audience members were treated/subjected to another special filmed intro, then Norliss Films took us on another journey, this time to experience Splott: The Movie. Terrifying. After Michael Aaron and the Subjective Realities team stirred things up with the surprisingly controversial Have A Normal Day, Matthew Walters and Silva Huws finally hand-delivered A Postcard Life.
