The Chester Film Co-op Meetups are currently on extended hiatus.
A lack of interest post Covid + work & other commitments has made it difficult to continue with the Meetups.
BUT, never say never. Hopefully, we can revisit them again.
So fingers-crossed, ``It's not goodbye, it's see you later``.
Here are some of the images from last week's Chester Film CO-OP event at The Watergates
Was a night mostly discussing equipment used in the Broadcast and Film Industries and the importance of lens selection.
Unfortunately we bid a fond farewell to Adam Bowler / Adam Bowler Photography & Video Services who shot his final event for us.

Kicking off with our first Filmmakers Networking Event for 2023!
Hopefully the first of many Chester Film CO-OP events to come this year and a big thanks to our amazing hosts the The Watergates for allowing us to use their snug area once again!
Nice to welcome back a few of our regulars and to have so many new people joining us from a huge range of creative backgrounds! Film Directors, Costume / Prop Makers, Conceptual Artists, Make-up / Prosthetic Artists... and more!
We look forward to seeing you all at our next event! Exact date to be announced... Stay tuned! 😃

A few nights ago Adam Bowler / Adam Bowler Photography & Video Services represented Film Chester at the Manchester January screening of IndieFlicks Monthly Film Festival!
Hosted at the awesome Chapeltown Picture House in Manchester’s Green Quarter.
Indieflicks kicked off 2023 in style with a terrific lineup of films and the guys changed up the normal style of voting. This month the audience had to decide the winner for best overall film in the last 12 months! The team had picked the nominations from a selection of the winners from the previous months and a rather swanky trophy was presented to the filmmaker who claimed the title!
Well done to the Indieflicks team and look forward to catching you guys at the next one!

No Meetup this month due to the Christmas break, but we'll be back raring to go on the fourth Thursday of January (Jan 26th).
Hope everyone has a a great Christmas and New Year break, and see you all next year!
Another great meetup.
Nice to welcome back a few of our regulars who have been absent from our events due to work commitments and life in general.
Also an unexpected Christmas parade just outside The Watergates added an extra flair to the evening! 🪘🎺🎅
We look forward to seeing you all at our next event! Exact date to be announced... Stay tuned! 😃

Another great meetup.
We screened several things, from a horror teaser, to a fully written & produced original orchestral scene-score, & even a few more things in between. 😁
Oh, and a sneak-peek on a book detailing how to go about Freelancing. 😯
Hope to see you all, & more, next month!!

Hi all, unfortunately due to work commitments Andy Taylor will be unable to attend this evening’s event.
We should however still have a good selection of content to show and expect another great night of networking.
Hi everyone, we just wanted to make you all aware that despite this week's Industrial Action on the Railway Lines we will still be running our monthly Chester Film Co-op Networking event on the 23rd June as planned.
We appreciate that many of our members rely on the train services to attend our meet-ups. If you cannot make it this month we will be running our next event on the 28th July.
Hopefully we'll still be able to welcome most of you this week and and have a great night of film screenings, camera gear talk and a couple of nice cold pints!
Thanks everyone,
The Film Chester Team
