ahhhhhhhhhh it's the annual 'lets set up a film making society!' time. I had
one in my first year, and my second year. From what I remember, the society
tends to die out every year, due to either lack of interest or lack of
funding, then gets resurrected every so often by some bright spark with
aspirations to be the next James Cameron.
I can remember one year they actually managed to produce a film. It was
fairly poor, mostly monologue due to a shortage of actors/actresses.
Recycled storyline, fairly poor sound, and unlike
IFIS's
idea-for-a-film, I think they were trying to be serious, whereas
IFIS's
is supposed to be a blatant pisstake.
By the way, if you're interested in the
IFIS one, join
project@, by mailing me - mailto:nick@ - or on the
website -
www.ifis.org.uk/resources/ifispedia/guideline_to_the_lists.shtml and/or check out
the archives of past posts -
www.ifis.org.uk/social/forums/ - we have a rough
story outline and the plans for a few scenes and characters, and we've
been trying to pool appropriate skills.
If the film making society are happy to take the piss out of themselves,
they might want to help us and we might want to help them. If they want
to do some arty dogme serious thing, we probably can't help each other.
