A newsletter is published each month in PDF format and can be downloaded via the club newsletter page. The newsletter is also sent by email to all members.
Studio
The main hall of the club room may also be used as a studio. We have our own lighting equipment and three backdrops: white, black and green-screen. Backdrops MUST be cleaned after use.
- Hire of hall, using own lighting – $20.
- Hire of hall with club lighting** – $40 with a refundable $50 bond.
** Club lighting is not available unless the user has been instructed on the use of lights and equipment. It is not available to non-club members.
Hall hire is only available to members of 3 months standing or greater and must be booked through the club treasurer on club nights.
Matt Cutter
A matt cutter is available for members’ use. Members must supply their own matt board, matting tape and backing material. Please use heavy cardboard under your matt board when cutting to avoid damage to tables.
