Hi Luke,

I'm thinking about joining you.. i've tried the Gold Coast one but it wasnt for me, (a little to canon or old fashioned film - no offence any GCPS members)... when and where is the meet tonight?

Doh! Sorry, didn't have time to get on the interwebs again yesterday and see your post. Went along... was a bit dull as I'd already seen most of the AVs they displayed at previous BCG meetings.

They did show Adrian Bailey's 'Flesh Stone Wood' which was great. Obviously a lot of work involved for the models climbing up trees and such.

I'm told that its usually a bit more film and talk based rather than just being a bunch of AVs like it was last night.

Well, the best indication is that about 50% of the people are exactly the same people.... so theres not a whole lot of diferentiation going on really. But it was my first meeting and as I said I was told it wasnt the usual format.

I'll get along again some time :)
