There is nothing like a good competition to encourage the best out of our members. It really concentrates the mind and can bring some unexpected results that inspire others.
HACCA'S BACK
In a packed hall on Saturday 28th November 2009 we proudly hosted the Hertfordshire Amateur Cine Club Association's Movie Making Competition. Entries came from Borehamwood, Potters Bar, St Albans and ourselves. The judges were Ken Martin, Aivar Kaulins and Brian Heard who between them gave positive feedback to all the films shown during the afternoon. They also had the unenviable task of picking a winner and two runners up.
It was fantastic to hear Brian Harris from Hemel chosen as the victor with his film 'Top Brass', a documentary following some of the members of a Watford band. In 2nd place was John Astin from Potters Bar with 'Meet me at St Pancras', an interesting look at the history of the London station and it's transformation into the Eurostar hub. Following in 3rd place was a short comedy from St Albans Club, 'The Long Wait', It certainly tickled the audience and even featured Brian Harris in the cast.
