NWNW #1 – HD-DSLR Film Club

UPDATED – PLEASE NOTE THIS EVENT IS NOW FULL!!!

We have been inundated (thank you!) with responses, beyond our expectations and have unfortunately reached capacity at our venue.

Unless you have a confirmation email directly from us YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED INTO THE EVENT

We are very sorry about this, we did not expect to hit our capacity, but the BBC Club has strict rules around numbers, and we have reached that limit.

We will endeaovur to hold another club ASAP and find a bigger venue (finding a HD screen maybe tricky…) to accomodate us.

Apologies for those who found out too late or did not email in time. But to re-iterate;

IF YOU ARE NOT ON THE LIST AND HAVE RECEIVED AND HAVE RECIEVED AN EMAIL FROM US, SECURITY WILL NOT ALLOW YOU IN.

Howdy everyone,

We’ve decided to roll out our first ever official North West New Wave event. What we hope will be the first of many HD-DSLR Film Club nights. It’s happening this FRIDAY 23rd SEPTEMBER.

The creative explosion that HD-DSLR cameras such as the Canon 5Dmk2, 550D and others is well known, and the evidence is all over the Internet. What isn’t as well known, is how well footage from these cameras stand up on a BIG HD screen.

So, we’ve teamed up with the BBC Club in Manchester and are aiming to use their full HD projector to showcase these cameras. Even better, this event will be FREE to attend (we just need an email with your names in advance for security purposes)

So, we would love it if you could attend as a viewer, or as a contributor. We hope to screen from Blu-Ray, Mac or the cameras themselves if needs be!

  • - FREE to attend, but you MUST email in advance
  • - We’ll start at 7pm, finish at 10pm
  • - If you want to show content, simply bring it to the event with you
  • - Please keep content under 10 mins (email us for longer requests)
  • - We’re screening in HD so please provide files (USB, hard drive, DVD-Data) or playable Blu-Ray
  • - Content DOESN’T have to be a finished film; it’s a DSLR club and so you could show test footage, rushes, trailers & rough cuts
  • - You DON’T have to show content to attend, you just have to be interested!

We can show full films (old or new) taking in ALL the detail offered by the giant screen, a world apart from viewing your films on a computer monitor.

If you don’t have any full films ready to go, maybe you want to bring trailers or scenes from your upcoming projects, or even test footage you want to share with others, or even ask the knowledge of the rest of the attendees to help find the best settings, practises or lenses for your next shoot.

The bar will stocked, the agenda loose, and the screen full of DSLR movies. Whether you are new or old to HD-DSLR film-making, we hope to provide something for everyone.

To attend and/or submit content, please email:
