50+ Filmmakers/Actors Gather Every Wednesday - Join Us!
Join us every **Wednesday at 5 PM** at the Emporium food court (located behind Grill’d Burger Restaurant in the CBD, not near Melbourne Station) for a dynamic networking event tailored for filmmakers, actors, and film enthusiasts. Afterward, we continue the evening with Happy Hour drinks at a nearby bar and a chance to grab dinner together. Understanding that schedules vary, feel free to join at any time that suits you. Rain or shine, our community has gathered every week for the past year, maintaining a consistent and welcoming environment.
Our group has grown remarkably, with a **weekly turnout of over 50 participants**, blending newcomers with regulars to create a vibrant, diverse community. Feel free to bring friends interested in filmmaking; it’s a great way to introduce new faces to our expanding network.
Whether you’re a writer, actor, animator, or independent filmmaker, come share your experiences, discuss current projects, or chat about favorite films. This event fosters connections among like-minded individuals, encourages friendships, and opens doors for collaboration.
At **7 PM**, we move to The Carlton Club, a five-minute walk away, where we continue networking in a more formal rooftop setting over drinks and food. This change of venue offers an ideal environment to keep conversations flowing.
**RSVP** to help us gauge attendance and become part of a growing network of film professionals and enthusiasts. Though the event begins in the afternoon, the relationships you build here can last well into the night and beyond.
**What to Expect:**
*Our Wednesday meetup is primarily a large networking event for industry professionals. There’s no set theme, workshop, or speaker. It’s a relaxed gathering where filmmakers, actors, and creatives can connect, discuss projects, share needs, and learn from each other. Conversations flow freely around the table, fostering an environment of growth and camaraderie. Beyond Wednesdays, we also host exclusive events such as table reads, cinematography workshops with Panasonic, member screenings, and more. Each week brings fresh dialogues—some participants discuss their weekend shoots, others exchange insights with seasoned producers and directors, and a few engage in filmmaking exercises. It’s a space designed for creative engagement without strict structure or formal oversight.*
*Note: Our community emphasizes collaboration, friendship, and goodwill rather than promotional activities. If you wish to promote a workshop, course, screening, or similar event, please contact the organizers first. Promotional privileges are generally reserved for trusted, long-standing members.
MEL MLOps Community #18 | Data, Decision and Agentic AI Productivity Paradox
We are stoked to announce our next **Melbourne MLOps Community Meetup** of the year!
We are bringing you an absolute powerhouse lineup featuring two industry heavyweights. We will dive deep into tracking ML/DS performance using high-impact business metrics over raw statistical metrics. We will also tackle the AI coding productivity paradox and the high-stakes build-vs-buy SaaS dilemma.
**🎤 Speakers**
We’re thrilled to introduce:
**\- Nathanael Lampe**, Machine Learning Manager *at* Bunnings Warehouse. Nat is widely recognised as one of the most brilliant, deeply technical data science leaders. He brings an elite background in advanced data science, now driving the core Data Science team at Bunnings. In his talk, *Data & Decisions,* Nat will explain how in ML, we often focus on model accuracy but it’s a lot harder to measure the decisions a model supports. When we can anchor our ML practice in true business metrics, we are better equipped to ensure analytics projects succeed.
**\- Javier Candeira**, Fractional CTO *at* Infoplumbing.
Javier is a distinguished veteran of the data, software, and tech consultancy scenes. He brings many years of battle-tested technical and business experience to guiding teams through today's volatile AI landscape.
His talk titled: *The Buy/Build Dilemma and the Agentic Productivity Paradox* addresses three red-hot issues in the MLOps community:
1\. Local LLM inference and tooling for small scale teams\. What is too much local MLOps for a 1\-5 person shop? Is local inference only a cost saver\, or are there also capabilies unlocked by the finer\-grained control afforded by operating one’s own models?
2\. The Buy/Build dilemma\. This is a question for every company\, from small SaaS to big corporate\. The abundance of LLM coding tools shifts the balance\. How?
3\. The Productivity Paradox: If Agentic Coding and LLM autocomplete are so great\, where are the great new products? Where’s the programmer productivity going?
Javier will showcase some of his NixOS-based MLOps-for-one tools, and will attempt to progress the conversation on these three questions with his own reflections based on personal experience.
**Networking**
The Melbourne MLOps Community is committed to fostering a space where AI/ML engineers and practitioners can connect, exchange ideas, and build meaningful relationships.
Come ready to discuss:
* The tools you’re experimenting with
* Trends you’re seeing in ML and MLOps
* Challenges you’re tackling
* Ways to find peer support
We’ll have food, drinks, and the perfect space for great conversations — so feel free to bring along anyone interested in ML, MLOps, or AI more broadly.

🍕 **5:30pm** – Networking, drinks & food
🙋 **6:00pm** – Welcome
🎤 **6:10pm** – Presentation by Nathanael

Challengers we are waiting for you 😊
Hijinx Hotel Chadstone - 2 sets of challenge rooms
Keen to check this out... Was looking at escape rooms then this came up... It's different anyway, if nothing else 😂
And you can drink or not. I have no idea what the 'challenges' are btw. Maybe finding the exit door. Could possibly have a coffee
It's $30 if we go at this time. $46 if on a Friday night. I'm strongly averse to paying an extra $16 but I am guessing some people would want to. People can book their own tickets.
[Hijinx hotel booking link](https://booking.hijinxhotel.com.au/select-time)
\#\# Calling all curious cats
Round up your crew, check in at reception and immerse yourself in the interactive, quirky wonder that is Hijinx Hotel.
Thirsty? Have a drink in the lobby or sip cocktails at the bar. We've got all your classics plus some Hijinx specialities with a unicorn twist.
Leave the suitcases at home – it's time to play, not stay.
Jul 1 | Game On — The KISMETRIX Trivia Night — Konar Bar
## 💘 KISMETRIX \| True Connection
[Ticketed Event](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/july-01-game-on-the-kismetrix-trivia-night-konar-bar-tickets-1991902868099)
### GAME ON — THE KISMETRIX TRIVIA NIGHTDrinks, Banter & Real Connection
Hosted by **KISMETRIX \| True Connection**
📍 Konar Bar — Private Dining Room (Downstairs): 483 North Road, Ormond Vic 3204
📅 Thursday, 28 May 2026
🕖 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM (Venue open late)
#### BACK. UPGRADED. AND A WHOLE LOT OF FUN.
Never done trivia? Perfect. Neither has half the room.
This isn't about what you know. It's about who you end up laughing with by the end of the night.
The KISMETRIX Trivia Night is back — and this year we've stepped it up. We now have our own in-house host and an exclusive private room just for Kismetrix guests. Same great energy from last year, but more intimate, more personal, and a whole lot more fun.
No speed dating. No awkward mingling. No standing around with a drink wondering what to say. Just teams, trivia, a bit of friendly rivalry, and the kind of atmosphere where strangers become easy company.
#### 💫 ABOUT THE NIGHT
Tired of the same old bar scene? Not quite ready for a formal dinner event? This is the sweet spot.
KISMETRIX \| True Connection was created for people who want something more human — real conversation\, real presence\, and a genuine good time\. The Trivia Night is our most fun and relaxed format\, and it's exclusively for Kismetrix guests\.
You'll walk into a private room full of people who:
🎯 Are open, friendly and easy-going
🎯 Want a fun night out that feels natural — not forced
🎯 Prefer real-life connection over swiping
🎯 Are simply here to enjoy themselves and see where the night goes
Come for the trivia. Stay for the laughs. See who you meet along the way.
#### 🎯 WHAT TO EXPECT
You'll arrive to a private room — no general public, just Kismetrix guests. You'll be placed into a small team of around six, the questions will start, and within ten minutes you'll forget you didn't know anyone when you walked in.
Expect:
🎯 A welcome drink waiting when you arrive
🎯 A warm hosted welcome so nobody walks in feeling lost
🎯 Fun, accessible trivia rounds — no expertise required
🎯 Rotating teams through the night so you meet different people across different rounds
🎯 A mystery round (yes, really)
🎯 A prize worth playing for
🎯 Plenty of laughs, friendly arguing, and genuinely good company
Our in-house Kismetrix host keeps the energy warm and the night moving — so it always feels like a night out with good people, not a structured event.
#### 👥 AGE GUIDE
🎯 30-43 · 40–53 · 50+
Kismetrix Trivia Night is open to all singles who are here for a good time and genuine connection. We provide age groups so you know what to expect from the room. The focus is always on good energy and like-minded people — not strict age gates.
If you're slightly outside a range and the format feels right for you, you're welcome to book.
#### 🎯 WHO THIS NIGHT IS FOR
This event is for singles who:
🎯 Want a fun, social night out that's a little different
🎯 Are curious about Kismetrix but want a low-pressure way to start
🎯 Love trivia — or have never done it but like the sound of it
🎯 Want to meet new people without it feeling like a "singles event"
🎯 Are open, friendly, and ready for a genuinely good Thursday night
Come solo — most people do. You'll be in good company from the moment you walk in.
#### 🍽 FOOD & DRINKS
Your ticket includes one standard welcome drink on arrival.
Konar Bar has a great food and drinks menu available throughout the night, directly from the venue. Perfect if you'd like to make a full evening of it — and many of our guests do.
#### 🎟 TICKETS
🎯 Early Bird — $39
🎯 General — $49
🎯 Last Minute — $59
Welcome drink included at every tier. Spots are strictly limited to 7–8 tables to keep the night intimate and social — early booking is strongly recommended.
*Last year's event sold out. Don't sit on it.*
#### 💡 WHY PEOPLE LOVE KISMETRIX EVENTS
🎯 No swiping. No apps. Just real people in a real room
🎯 No awkward formats or forced interactions
🎯 A genuinely fun night — even if you come solo
🎯 Exclusively for Kismetrix guests — private room, warm atmosphere
🎯 Hosted by people who actually care about how the night feels
Many guests come "just to try it" — and end up staying all night.
#### ✨ WHERE THE TRIVIA NIGHT FITS
The KISMETRIX Trivia Night sits alongside our Drinks Socials, Elevated Dinners, and Activity Nights as one of our most fun and accessible formats. If you've been curious about Kismetrix, this is one of the easiest and most enjoyable ways to experience what we do.
#### 🔔 IMPORTANT NOTES
🎯 This is a hosted social experience — not speed dating
🎯 A welcome drink is included; additional drinks and food are available at the venue
🎯 Gender balance is carefully aimed for but not always guaranteed
🎯 Respect, boundaries, and good energy are essential at all Kismetrix events
🎯 Tickets are non-refundable but transferable

Gadgets, Guests, and the Grammar of Modernity
A double bill of Jacques Tati
There is something uniquely disorienting about Tati's comedy: jokes that arrive without fanfare, gags that unfold in the periphery while you're looking somewhere else, a world governed by its own imperturbable logic. This evening we screen two films that together form the most sustained and affectionate critique of postwar modernisation in cinema — *Les Vacances de M. Hulot* (1953) and *Mon Oncle* (1958).
In *Mr. Hulot's Holiday*, the comedy is still porous and warm, rooted in the rhythms of a seaside resort where nothing quite goes to plan and nobody seems to mind. Hulot himself moves through the world like a benign disturbance — a figure of courtly anachronism whose very presence generates chaos. By *Mon Oncle*, the stakes have shifted: Hulot is now set against the sleek, automated world of the Arpel household, a monument to the convenience of a life thoroughly organised. The film's geometry is almost architectural in its precision — the old neighbourhood and the new suburb held in quiet but devastating contrast.
What do Tati's long takes, his carefully engineered soundscapes, and his refusal to centre the joke actually ask of us as spectators? How does he make modernisation legible as comedy without ever quite letting us feel superior to it?
Come ready to discuss the films' formal strategies, their relationship to French social transformation, and what it means that Hulot — perpetually bewildered, permanently out of step — is the figure we keep returning to.
Fast Friending: Real Connections! (21-40/Free Entry Latin Night)

CMG Gives Back: Serve Dinner at FAITH MISSION GRANT KITCHEN!
Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “Create a better world” by helping serve those in need. NOTE: We’re switching it up this time and going with a DINNER shift on Mon, 7/6. Here are complete details and our plan for this event:
FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces.
PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for DINNER from 4:30 to 6:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 4:20pm and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants.
LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking are available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details:
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to those volunteering at this (or any of our previous or future) CMG Gives Back events!
Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
