A loose ceiling panel in the Beastie hides some amyl nitrate, Earl Brutus CD's, sherbet and the Marilyn Monroe sex film. Maybe...

  • Winter reading

    Good evening folks. Just a message for anyone that doesn't know the first ever creative writing society winter reading is on this thursday in the wondeful Belmont Cinema bar at 7.00 (though readings begin at 7.30). Please do come along, and perhaps even bring some folk with you to make a good evening of it all.

     oneoneoneone

    Dunno if the email has been sent yet, but we have booked the Belmont for a live reading on Thursday the 11th of December. As such this week's meeting (the 4th) has to be a rehearsal. If you would like to be part of the live reading then bring a piece in this thursday so we can sort out timing etc and get a bill of who is doing it.

    So i repeat, this thursday is a rehearsal for the live reading

    Oh, and just to give us a rough idea could you possibly leave a comment on our bebo page

  • Coming soon

    Working on a follow up for our creative writing short film. This next one we have a rough scene by scene for and will be A LOT MORE ambitious so hope to have some help from you lot along the way. Wihtout giving much away it will follow a documentry style and will have a tonne more action in it than the last, be far more mature and also have far more sexual inneundo (although i do appreciate that those last 2 sentences do read like a contradiction). Shooting will begin next week so exciting times :)

    Glad you enoyed it. You may also find this an interesting insight in to the creative process which surrounded it:

    Anyways, you'd be surprised how little time it actually took to make that. Required one boys night out where we tossed around ideas over a rough draft which Gains had hammered up, and then making it up as we went along on our filming day then an extra few shots that Thursday when we finished the edit :) Am really rather pleased with how it came out though, was a jolly good piece of team work

    Well I think my "Care Bears discussing the Dublane Primary School Massacre" play was quite creative writing, well for a scientist maybe.

    Hey, slackers! You got any books on sale yet? What! I work in an office which has eavesdroppable banter of a standard of 'I love crisps'. Give me interesting things! And I can' believe you still hadn't revoked my permissions... Gleeful greetings from the land's bovine bureaucrats, troops...

    Varies a lot depending on how many people are reading, but i'd say on average we probably finish readings around 8.30/ 8.45
