Film Screenings

Well, at last all the hard work is almost over.

Today we had the test screenings of our films. Unfortunately 'Bold Donkey'didn't make it as Cahal was having 'technical difficulties' burning his film to disc. A crowd of sixth formers were our audience. On the whole the reception was positive, although a few expressed concerns about the mental health of the group as so many of the films reveal a dark sinister undercurrent. Anyhow, well done to all. At this point we only have a few last minute 'tweaks' to make to the films and get all the written material finished and printed.

Have a good weekend.
