Cheap Thrills

Little Red Light and Magic Lantern Film Club present Cheap Thrills – the Zero budget film festival

Saturday 1st October. FREE ENTRY.

Story: Martin Currie

On the 1st of October we need volunteer help with stewarding, decorating and a litter pick for the Sheffield mini film festival.

The entire programme of films made by local people, professional or not (one is from a couple of seven year olds) will run for 60 to 90 minutes.

We decided to put prize money from the annual “2 Weeks 2 Make It” music video competition into a new project. Team members submitted ideas but none needed any money; so we decided to make them all and involve other people in a festival.

We plan to have two screenings:

• 7pm in the left-hand cemetery chapel on Melrose Road, for a community event. Food will be served, voting forms and popcorn distributed, films screened and prizes awarded.

• At 10pm we will project the movies onto the side of the Howard pub in the city centre.

Acts to make the event more festive are welcome and it’s not too late to enter a film, if it’s short and entertaining.

We do need an audience, so bring a crowd. Children are welcome and entry is FREE.
