Variable Subject Competition - 5th February 2015
Our annual Variable Subject Competition. This event is on our calendar every year, only the subject changes. This year it was "Movement" .
We had a fantastic turn out with seven high quality films presented. Two were by members competing in the 'graduate' section and five fighting it out for the advanced trophy. Dominic Lobo won the Graduate section, well done him, his film was a very innovative and he fully deserved his inaugural win. Having won as Graduate Dominic now moves up to the advanced competition next time. John Astin won the main prize with his production 'Hamburg's Wunderland'. John always produces great films but several of the other entries were really super and gave him a good run for his money.
