Are you interested in making your own films or videos? Do you want to learn more about how to use your camcorder, or how to edit and improve your home videos? Would you like to work alone on your own projects or would you prefer to work with others on a team? Are you interested in writing scripts or narrations? Do you a have a musical talent, or would you rather work in front of the camera? Maybe you’d enjoy contributing by doing research for documentaries or travelogues.
Whatever your interests, experience, or skill level, the Hamilton Video/Film Makers are there for everyone interested in movie making for the joy of it!
We invite you to explore this site, read About Us, view our photos on-line, browse or download our monthly newsletter, REEL NEWS, contact any of our Executive Officers, and even examine our Constitution and By-Laws, if you wish.
Above all, if you live within an hour or two from Hamilton, Ontario, why not attend our monthly meetings where you will be warmly welcomed?
History of Hamilton Video Film Makers
The club was formed in 1938 as the Hamilton Movie Club. Only one of the founding members (John J. Carey, FRPS, FSCA) (Passed Away this year) still came as an active member, but several others have seen the progression from 16 mm. through 8 mm., Super8, and now video. Today most members use video in various formats but a handful still work occasionally in film, and many have carried their film roots into the new era. Membership fluctuates, of course, but currently about forty members, from as far afield as Brantford, Markham, Niagara Falls, Simcoe, Toronto, Welland, Woodstock, and even Barrie, attend twelve regular meetings on the first Thursday of every month at the
Royal Canadian Legion Hall,
12 King Street East, Stoney Creek.
Doors open 7:00 PM – Meeting starts 7:30 PM.
Enter side door from the parking lot.
