Welcome to Chudleigh Film Society
This is a community project set up to offer regular entertainment to the people of Chudleigh and those who live or work in the locality.
History
It was in March of 2008 that a small group of friends decided to start a film society. It had been agreed, after personal research, that regular entertainment in the form of community cinema, within walking distance for most Chudleigh residents, would have wide appeal.
Within a few weeks we were a committee of eight. We have made good friends at neighbouring film societies, who, along with the British Federation of Film Societies (BFFS), the South West Group of the BFFS and Film West South West (FWSW), have been generous with their help and advice.
We have made contact with the leaders and young people at the Youth Centre and received a very positive reaction to our plans.
The Media Studies department at Teign School responded to our plans for a Young Filmmakers Group by offering their professional support and donating vital equipment for the students’ use, and training.
Is your business looking for a unique method of advertising ?
We are offering you the opportunity to further your business success and support
an on-going community project, by sponsoring a film.
As sponsor, you will be named as such on our website
(which has had 4,380 hits at the time of writing),
in the published programme, on posters and fliers which are widely distributed,
articles in the local press etc.
In addition, we can offer the services of our Young Film Makers Group.
They will make a short advertisement about your product or services,
to be shown on the big screen before the sponsored film.
The licence fee for the public screening of a film is around £100,
according to which distributor holds the rights.
If you take advantage of this offer,
you will receive two free tickets to ‘your’ film
and a reduced membership fee if you decide to join the society.
