What we’re about
This is a group for anyone interested in Television & Film Production both in front of or behind the camera. This group is for actors, directors, film and TV crew, editors and camera crews. All skill levels are welcome from film and media students and beginners right through to veteran professionals. This group is also for anyone who wants to improve their debating skills and build confidence in public speaking. Our events are a bit different to Toastmasters in that we use a TV show format with a film crew who film the events. Sometimes we replay the event on a TV screen while other times we make a video of the best segments for our youtube channels. For more information phone Peter Turner 5502 2606 or Abby Eagle 5562 5718.
