Free Buffalo Event - Annual Filmmaker Holiday Party - Buffalo Movie and Video Makers

MORE INFO: https://www.facebook.com/events/944021589129376/?active_tab=about

This month we focus on the socializing aspect of the filmmaking club!
The first half of the meeting we’ll announce the winners of last month's BM-VM "Shorty" Film Contest. These were the four entries:

A TRAILER by Leo Medico, Jr.
BLUNT RECOLLECTION by Curt Markham
ENLIGHTENMENT by David Gaffney
THE MAGIC ROOM by Terry Kimmel

We'll find out which were the top three vote-getters from last month's secret ballot. The First Place winner will be awarded a plaque, with the Second and Third Place finishers receiving certificates. Also, we'll re-screen the First Place winning entry.

Second half is the HOLIDAY PARTY!

BM-VM members are invited to bring a "finger food”-type dish to pass (nothing that requires heating up, though). Also, they can chip in on pizza. Guests are invited!
BM-VM President (and host!) David Gaffney will also run the White Elephant gift exchange. If you would like to participate, simply bring a gift! Suggested price range: $10.
Hope to see you there!

NOTE: Meeting will start at 7:20 sharp. Doors open at 7:00 pm.
Opening 5 minutes will be devoted to short announcements from the President and the group.
If you have any detailed announcements, it’s suggested bringing some handouts that explain things more in detail (including contact information). Thanks!

Visitors are welcome! Admission is free!
Drinks available for purchase at the snack bar.

On the 3rd Monday of every month we meet as a club to pursue the common goal of being a community of filmmakers.

Find a Great Dramatic Story You need a strong story to write a compelling opera. Fortunately you can easily borrow from thousands of public domain works and modernize them. Think of West Side Story (just a contemporary version of Shakespear's Romeo and Juliet) . Many great operas use Shakespeare, the Brothers Grimm , and Biblical stories, all of which include interesting characters, strong themes, and action. Libertaria borrows heavily from messianic sto...

Program notes and Translation: Las Aguas Cielos Sky/Heavens Separe las aguas de las aguas Separate the waters from the waters Aire Air La vida Life (Swahili) Maisha Life Bahari Sea/Ocean Hewa Air Iwepo nafasi kati ya maji igawe maji na maji.
