**Start:** Bar Marzano (inside The Forum, Millennium Plain, Norwich NR2 1TF)
**Finish:** The Ribs of Beef, 24 Wensum St, Norwich NR3 1HY

**What this is**
Make a short film in one day with other Norwich filmmakers. Any experience level. Bring gear if you’ve got it; if not, bring energy—there’s always a role. Finished films can go on the group YouTube.

**Plan for the day**

* **11:00 –** Meet at **Bar Marzano** (you’ll find me in the outside seating area), quick intros, form teams
* **11:20 –** Brief + challenge prompt reveal
* **11:30–16:30 –** Shoot around Norwich
* **16:30 –** Regroup at **Ribs of Beef** (wrap, swap contacts, decompress).

**The Challenge**

* Create a short film, max length 3 mins (credits included).
* Must include: one exact line of dialogue and two specified locations (revealed at the start; must appear on screen).
* Tell a story with a beginning, middle, end.
* Any camera is fine: phone, DSLR, whatever.

**What to bring**

* Phone/camera (charged) + spare batteries/power bank
* Storage (SD cards, card reader, SSD)
* Mic/tripod if you have them
* Weather-proof clothing (we’re shooting whatever the skies throw at us)

**After the event (uploads & YouTube)**

* Edit after the meetup and submit within 48 hours via email reelmakersnorwich@gmail.com
* We’ll compile a playlist on the **Reel Makers Norwich** YouTube channel. If you’d rather not share publicly, say so—no pressure.

**Ground rules (so the day doesn't go off the rails)**

* **Be safe.** No stunts, no replica weapons in public, no dumb risks.
* **Be respectful.** Get permission for private property; don’t annoy businesses or the public.
* **Music.** Use rights-safe tracks only.
* **Consent.** If someone’s featured, get a yes.
* **Show up or change your RSVP.** No-shows waste everyone’s time.

See you at Bar Marzano. Bring your A-game!
