NEW GRADE OF MEMBERSHIP
Up to the present membership of The British [Cinematograph Society has been available only to those gainfully occupied in the cinematograph industry or an allied industry.
This is not to say that, over the years, the work carried out by non-professional people is unworthy of consideration.
Indeed, much is of a high order whether judged from the standpoint of the sincere endeavour of the beginner or, from the studiously applied and progressive worker.
The number of non-professional people actively engaged in some aspect of cinematography has increased considerably during the past few years, and the Society has felt a growing responsibility towards
those who wish to join in the Society's activities and improve their knowledge and technique.
The door is now open for the admission of such people, and, whether they be interested in 35mm. or 16mm. film activities it is believed that by attendance at lectures and courses of study or, through the monthly journal, great benefit will be derived by the new " Associates" themselves as well as by the present members of the Society.
The old Associates of the Society will now be known as "Associate Members" and for both the grades the entrance fee will be one guinea and the annual subscription one-and-a-half guineas.
Forms of application and copies of the modified Bye-Laws are available from the Secretary.
BRITISH KINEMATOGRAPHY, the Journal of the British Kinematograph Society, is published monthly. Price 5s. per issue (5s. 2d. including postage), annual subscription £2 17 s. 6d. including postage.
