British Contests
npHE Amateur Cinematographers' ■*• Association in London, England, has held a series of contests and eliminations to choose directors and actors for its forthcoming productions during the summer months, writes G. S. Sewell, publicity secretary. The contests were conducted in an unusual and thorough fashion. Each prospective director was instructed to draw, by lot, one of six brief scenarios. He was then allowed time to study the scenario, pick a cast from among the dramatic aspirants present, and instruct them. Then, in turn, each was given an allotted time to direct the episode with a camera in action. A committee of members present discussed, criticized and voted upon the various efforts.
The competition committee has also offered a prize of £5 for the best story submitted by one of the members. The winning story will be produced by the Amateur Cinematographers' Association and the winner has the option of directing it himself or selecting a member to direct it. The association holds weekly meetings featuring screenings of member films and talks of interest to amateur cinematographers and photoplay producers.
The Leeds (England) branch of the association has started shooting a melodrama, "The Gleaning," written by E. F. Aiken. D. Erlston, of the Famous Lasky Film Service in England, is scheduled to give a lecture on makeup at the next program meeting. P. G. Peacock is secretary of the Leeds branch.
Hartford Competition
HpHE first of a series of cine con■* tests to be conducted by the Hartford Amateur Movie Club was held at a recent meeting. Five films were submitted by club members for the critical appraisal of Rene Cheruy who was selected as judge. Of these, a film of Indian scenes taken by B. H. Blood was adjudged the best. The club will conduct these competitions every two months in order to obtain definite, constructive criticism of local amateur film. Prizes will be awarded.
