🎬 Film for Fun – 1–2 Minute Challenge
Hi everyone!
Let's have some fun and bring back that spark of filming for fun! Get into groups, write something, film something, edit it, share it within two hours!
Event Details
*Date: Saturday, May 16th - Time 11am - 1pm
- Location: Greater Victoria Public Library – Central Branch (Room TBD, but it’s usually room 102 or 103), Victoria, BC.
Max attendees: 15
What will happen
- Quick introductions.
- I’ll split everyone into small groups of 2–3.
- Each group will get:
- A prompt
- Groups will go off and:
- Write a 1–2 minute script
*Film on your phone - Edit on your phone (optional), try in-camera editing, do a “one-er,” or just show raw clips
*After about an hour, we’ll regroup and watch everyone’s films on the library TV.
This is for all skill levels—from beginners to pros. All walks of life are welcome!
You’re welcome to bring extra equipment (mics, cameras, laptops), but keep in mind the quick turnaround. *Make sure your phone is charged! And please do not film strangers!
Whether you’ve been here from the start or just joined recently, this is a chance to jump in, get creative, and meet new people!
The idea
*Low-pressure & fun: The goal is to create, have fun, practice, and meet new people!
- Judgment-free: Please keep everything tasteful and respectful.
*Time limit: We have two hours for meeting, filming, editing and sharing—expect a little crunch, but it’s part of the fun! - No budget, no pressure: Just a creative, supportive space.
Important
*If you RSVP but cannot make it, please let me know as soon as possible.
Looking ahead
We acknowledge that we are meeting on the traditional territories of the Lekwungen people, now known as the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations, and we are grateful for the opportunity to create and gather here.
