Reel Deal Film Group Screening
It has been a while since last I wrote on this blog.
Reasons being that times have become uncertain. The one constant in the world of creative workshops and sessions with homeless people has always been the Film Group. But it seems even this is now hanging in the balance. I don’t know how many more metaphors I can come up with for the meaning of precarious but think of your favourite and that is it.
I originally intended this screening to be no more than an opportunity to screen the films in a public space for the sense of pride and achievement that it would give the film group members.
However as things stand, more than this I’d like it to maybe reach a few others. To that end my friend Andrew James Jones has designed this little publicity leaflet. It has been hard to gather troops at last minute but I’m hoping a few supportive faces and even better a couple of new ones will turn up to tomorrow’s screening.
The kind people at the Curzon Soho are allowing us to screen them from the projector in the lobby downstairs. We will introduce the short films made by the members of the film group at 5pm and the films will then be shown on loop until 7pm. If anyone has any supportive offers to help fund the expenses of running the group (some food for lunch or bus passes) or equipment expenses or indeed feels like paying my time so I can continue to run it that would be the dream. The ultimate dream.
If not, not to worry, watch films, laugh, don’t laugh, mingle, stand in a corner whatever your presence requires.
I’ll be the one looking flustered.
Thank you
Natalie
