Participants will build and expand their skills continuously as we explore every aspect of game development. From basic blueprints and interactive mechanics, to advanced rigging, animation, environment design, and lighting, we'll work our way up to creating small complete games. We encourage experimentation and peer teaching, so whether you're a beginner or experienced developer looking to deepen your expertise, our sessions provide a supportive environment to learn, create, and innovate together in Unreal Engine 5.

Join us for the June meeting of the Greenwich Film Club! Movie choice is Backrooms by A24. Watch the movie in your own time, ahead of the meetup.

(Just ask for the table for Elisha when you get to the pub) Once the group has settled a bit - for future months, we'll probs organise an optional cinema trip to see the movie as a group at the Greenwich Picturehouse. Everyone welcome!

Join OverBoard to play the brilliant social deduction game Blood on the Clocktower in person at the brand new board game cafe Otter Chaos in Brixton. If you haven’t heard of Blood on the Clocktower before it is an evolution of classic party games like Mafia/Werewolf where a hidden evil team takes on the good team by lying and killing. The good team has a few tricks up their sleeve but will have to work together to deduce who the evil doers are in their midst. **This is a beginner friendly event so no experience with the game is necessary.** Please note that a gaming cover charge of \~£5 will be payable by each attendee to the venue so that we can make use of the space. We also encourage you to buy food and drink from the bar so we are supporting the business (I can highly recommend their pizzas!) If you want to know more about the rules of the game check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-aZP47Nm9g

This is a live session at The Mitre in Greenwich. The purpose of this meeting is to provide and receive critique on submitted extracts of members' creative writing, whether they're working on a novel, screenplay, poetry, a memoir or short story, etc. We share our extracts via email ahead of the meeting to give us all a chance to read the work in our own time and reflect upon it so as to be able to provide useful critique. If you want to submit an extract mail me at gpatrick66@hotmail.com to book a slot. If you are new to the group we ask that you participate in at least two of the Wednesday critiquing sessions before you submit work for review so that you get to know us and have a good understanding of how we operate. This will help you to get the most from a critique of your own work. Extracts should be approx 3,000 words and the full document (extract plus blurbs, questions etc) should not exceed 3,500 words in total. Extracts must be mailed to me (gpatrick66@hotmail.com) at the latest by 9pm on the Saturday before the session so that I can share your work with the rest of the group. We have a limit of 4 extracts per session to give adequate time to review work properly. Feel free to give guidance on any specific areas on which you would like feedback. E.g. Plot, pacing, structure or character development etc. (If you have not received the extracts by the Sunday before the session, mail me.) The group is friendly and relaxed, so please don't feel nervous about sharing your work! We will normally review extracts according to the order in which they are sent to me but if you need a particular slot let me know when you submit your extract and we will try to accommodate that. Please note that all phones MUST be switched to silent mode for the duration of the meeting.

Join me for a fun Drama class every Wednesday evening from 6:30 pm- 8:30pm at the Omnibus Theatre in Clapham Common. Acting helps with confidence and awareness. In a fun and relaxed atmosphere, you will meet new people and learn all about Acting. No experience is needed. We'll do relaxation exercises, games, improvisations, storytelling, and a bit later on we'll start working on character and text. The year ends with an exciting Showcase where friends and family come and see how all your hard work has paid off :) £10 pounds for the trial class to be paid before or after class. Different payment options if you decide to join. In order to reserve a place, please contact me at catherine@thebrightdaycompany.net. For more info: https://www.thebrightdaycompany.net/about I look forward to seeing you!

This event will be for people to meet, go off and film, come back and enjoy the results. Whatever you want to do, be it film, act, direct or even just sort of hang around at the back then this is the event for you! MEET AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE NATIONAL THEATRE. If you are wondering what this group can provide for you, it’s above all else friendship with other like minded people, whether you are a screenwriter, director, cameraperson, actor etc etc. With that in mind, on Saturday we will do the following: 1. We’ll meet at the National Theatre on Southbank. 2. We’ll split into two groups (or more if needed) 3. Each team will try and beat the other teams to a pub in EC1 in London and edit (maybe) the film. BUT 4. Each team must make a 2 minute 30 seconds film on the way with a beginning middle and end, a solid story arc for the main character, etc. Remember to bring: 1. You and your enthusiasm 2. A camera (iPhones dslrs whatever) 3. Someone willing to do an edit after we arrive back at the on their computers All teams will then meet-up at a pub in EC1 and watch what we have filmed, happy with what they have learnt! The first team that finishes gets a Small Prize! Hopefully then, you will stick around to have a great time chatting about film, meeting new people, and forgetting about work until the late hours. Look forward to seeing you there!

***💀*** ***That great horror is not defined by how much money is on the screen, but by how effectively it gets under our skin!*** **👋** **What's going on guys!** Lately, we’ve seen some really unique entries, like **[Backrooms](https://www.google.com/search?q=backrooms+movie+trailer&num=10&sca_esv=bcc915fd4b92abab&sxsrf=ANbL-n6brQB7O1WSwFtdXtHuvAteIlGCyA%3A1781015954868&source=hp&ei=kiUoauCaMruvhbIPnuGYoA0&iflsig=AFdpzrgAAAAAaigzokKyXBPw2Qw7a4MIuGSKOJgOcjAC&oq=backrooms+movie+tr&gs_lp=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&sclient=gws-wiz)** and **[Obsession](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMC8kkwbIQQ)**, which were both made with micro budgets. This is honestly so refreshing as we are just a little bit fatigued now with overblown budgets and tired retellings with no soul. For years, some horror films have chased bigger budgets and larger spectacle, but many of the most exciting recent releases have relied on atmosphere, creativity, strong concepts, and passionate filmmakers rather than endless spending. Some other honourable mentions are **[Hokum](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jP2nDyQWBOU), [Primate](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo87F-va410), [Faces of Death](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mc6L502Ukb4), [Forbidden Fruits](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nyUCq9k7_0), [Whistle](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIkIp4L865M), [Iron Lung](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IaEtA56pd_w), [Passenger](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNIn8kW1kyE)** and **[Cold storage](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kea7gnh1uYA)**, all of which were made on relatively modest budgets. **It raises some interesting questions:** **Are we finally seeing a return to the kind of inventive, character driven horror filmmaking that made the genre so beloved in the first place?** And, **Could this be a sign that the industry is learning a big lesson?** Fingers crossed. You are cordially invited to a relaxed evening at **The Three Johns in Angel,** starting at **6:30 PM.** We’ll dive deep into all this B-movie buzz and celebrate the creative magic behind modest-budget horror. **Full address and details of the condemned location are below**. So grab a drink and share your spookiest thoughts.

In the year 2044, in the age of AI, a woman named Gabrielle (Seydoux) tries to purify her DNA by purging the inherited memories of her past lives. She (re)lives her life in 1910 Paris and 2014 Los Angeles, and as the procedure goes on, the lines between her worlds become blurred. These three timelines have a lot of connective tissue holding them together; certain symbols and motifs appear repeatedly, not to mention Mackay’s Louis, a figure whom Gabrielle seems drawn to in each lifetime. *The Beast / La Bête* can be streamed for free on Kanopy or the Criterion Channel. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime, AppleTV and YouTube.

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided! Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site. ###

Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending. *Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.

**The event has been canceled.** *Note: this is a demonstration event only, you **will not** shoot you own images. However, if you bring your camera we can test it for compatibility with the studio lights.* Bondage elements can add an extra layer of emotion and artistry to your images. Sample images on the internet are however dominated by BDSM style shots that are often sexualized and emphasize the model being in distress. In this demonstration Rachel and I show ways to use bondage elements in an artistic way. We explore the types of accessories that work best in artistic images and the best way to photograph them. Our model is Rachel Adams, an internationally known fetish model with many years of experience in this genre.

Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans. We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans. Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served. This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.
