Staines Video Makers' Chairman's Night

[TimStannard]

As many of you might know, I'm chairman of my local video club Staines Video Makers.

Every year it falls to the chairman to present an eveing. Being a lazy b*gg*r, I simply put together a list of films I've come across on the internet which I've found interesting, inspiring or just entertaining. Of course I had to reduce that list in order to fit into an evening and in the event i only found time to show 60-70% of those.

Most of these wre made by members of this forum, and I'm very grateful to Marc Peters, Midnight Blue, Andy Lockwood, ctbullet, Kartiv2 and enc for letting me show them.

Thanks for posting all the links, I think you made some great selections. It makes a great nights viewing. The only problem is I was supposed to be having an early night tonight.
Well, I'll just have to have a lye in in the morning.
