FILM MAKING GROUP AT ICE WORKSHOP


Our club received funding from Parramatta Leagues through the Parramatta ClubGRANTS Scheme for a film making project  involving a group of nine of our trainers to do a 10 week course on film making at ICE (Information & Cultural Exchange) with tutor Ludwig, who has worked as a professional stage actor, director and scriptwriter, video artist and documentary maker.


 
Ludwig and other members of the film making group were impressed by Judy's short, uncompleted film called "Burramatta to Parramatta"

The film making course has now finished, and trainers Judy and John are working on documentaries about one of our members, and St Johns Cathedral.

AT THE ANDROID TABLET BEGINNERS COURSE


The popular Android Tablet Beginners course was on again this week. Trainers Deborah and Hazel worked very hard, but agreed that this size class of nearly 15 students is too big and unwieldy.

However, the students are happy to learn how to find their way around their tablets, as well as the finer points that are outlined by Deborah.

 Students Maureen and her husband both brought their new tablets along. Maureen said: "Finally using the androids and loving the class. Thank you so much for giving us all your valuable time, how would we keep up with technology without you all"

The course will finish next week, and students should be able to show off their tablet knowledge to their families over Christmas.
