Anyone interested in starting an AV Club?

Hey everyone! I've got an idea and want to see if anyone's interested.

​I’m in my mid 40s, live in town and I'm a big movie fan. I'm into anything, big budget, fantasy, small indies, schlocky sci-fi, period dramas, westerns, pretty much everything! I also love writing and am always full of ideas!

I'm looking to start a new local group, something like the classic American school AV Club, but for adults, and welcoming and accepting of all.

We'd be a small group who meet up regularly to ​talk movies, discuss what we’re watching, sharing recommendations. ​Watch Movies, either at home or together. Have a dedicated screening or film club element. So we can discuss movies. And ultimately create movies. We'd write, shoot, and edit small, fun short films together.

​Think smartphone-shot, free editing software, hand-made props, and lots of process-over-perfection fun. We can create roles for everyone, whether you want to write, handle sound, edit, act, or just brainstorm and all levels of experience are welcome as we'll be learning as we go.

We'd make sure the meetups have a low-pressure structure, clear expectations, and opportunities for everyone to contribute in a way that feels comfortable.

This is open to people that want to join and meet in person, or if you'd prefer to only participate virtually, that's good too, there's still lots to be done from a desk, like the writing, planning, sound and editing.

I’m looking for two or three people who are keen to help build this from the ground up! Age range isn’t too important, just a shared love for creativity and a willingness to participate.

​If this sounds like you might want to try, drop a comment or send me a message.
