The 2009 Festival is over!
We hope you enjoyed the 2009 festival. Thanks to all our audience, sponsors, presenters, artists, helpers, supporters, committee, trade & voluntary organisations, caterers, Bonar Hall staff and projectionists who again made the event a great success. In particular thanks to Cameron McNeish and Richard Else for stepping in to help us out after Catherine Destivelle called off. Our thoughts are with Catherine through this very difficult time. Her mother died during the week, and she had already lost her father three months ago.
2010 AGM; Our AGM will be held on 1 April 2010. I have emailed most of the local clubs about this (assuming I have valid email addresses). If your club has not been given notification about this please let me know. If you are interested in coming along to the AGM (perhaps you may like to get involved with the festival) please let me know on mail@dundeemountainfilm.org.uk
The
film that you thought was best, the People's Choice, was "The
Great Walk of China", which was shown on Friday Evening. Katie-Jane
Cooper, who was featured in the film, and Tarka L'Herpiniere (the
film maker) said "That's absolutely fantastic that our film was voted
People's Choice Award, we are all so thrilled that it was enjoyed
and greatly received. Thank you so much for showing it in your festival
and we will definitely be in touch with future projects".
Everyone loves the Banff World Tour Intro. For more information about the music on this clip see Purple Sound Music (Creators of Banff World Tour Intro Music). For information about music from the other Banff World Tour films, see Link to other Banff World Tour film music
