Welcome
Welcome to Luton Movie Makers, the club for all
movie makers in the Luton area.
Movie
The term "Movie" is used to include all forms of moving
audio-visuals such as film, TV, video (all analogue and digital forms),
animation and computer based digital video.
The Aims are:-
(a) to encourage people to take up movie making throughout the area

The club offers discount purchasing schemes for selected film making items.
Typically these include "consumable" items such as video tape.
Special "club discounts" with local suppliers are to be set up.
The Volunteer Scheme, part-supported (in 2004/5) by Luton Borough Council,
is aimed at supporting those who want to get experience in filming

of interest to film makers.
