SOME OF MY NEW FILMS, 2020 ONWARDS. PLUS SOME OLD FILMS MADE BY A GROUP OF US FROM CREWE & SURROUNDING AREAS.

Some old documentary films & others that are
totally crazy.
We had a lot of fun making these.

Made purely for our own entertainment. Approx 1988-1994.
Group numbers ranged from 3-9 people, depending on what we were filming.
Sadly, many of the group are no longer with us.

Recorded on 8mm & Hi8. Then edited on s-vhs & then down to vhs.
All 'crash edited', didn't have a pc, or edit controller, so edited with 2 vcr machines, releasing 'pause' on one & 'record pause' on the other.
We had a good few laughs making them.
I subsequently transferred them onto DVD & then onto PC.

I stopped making films in 1994, then started again when Covid came along, to keep my brain active.

Editing on a pc & setting up 2 YouTube channels was a bit of a steep learning curve for an old git, (then 68), like me. Still gives me a laugh making them though.
