 History of Hamilton Video Film Makers The club was formed in 1938 as the Hamilton Movie Club, and has seen the transition from expensive, complicated film to the easy point and shoot reality of today. This meant progressing from 16 mm. through 8 mm., Super8, and most recently, the various incarnations of video. In spite of the ease by which video can be produced today, there is much more involved with producing good video than simply pointing and shooting. Proper videography involves focal length, lighting, manual and automatic focus, subject matter, background, and let us not forget, the other half of videography, which is audio. At the HVFM, you will find a wealth of knowledge freely offered from our professional members, and our serious amateur camera enthusiasts. You’ll find people who love film and video, and love talking about it in our friendly environment. No matter what your level of knowledge on the subject, the HVFM members are welcoming and helpful. |
