Surrey Border Film & Video Makers
A warm welcome awaits you at Surrey Border meetings
Where we meet
We meet each first Friday of the month in the brand new and very modern
St. Joan's Centre which is beside St Joan of Arc Catholic Church, 19 Tilford
Road, Farnham, Surrey GU9 8DJ. This is just 200 yards South of Farnham
Station. For further information Email us at
Directions to us
From the Farnham Bypass (A31) at traffic lights take the turning for Farnham Station (B3001). NB from
Guildford this is a left turn. From the opposite direction there is No Right Turn so go left and turn round etc!
Go over the level crossing at Farnham Station. Take the right fork onto Tilford Road. Look out for the second
road a short distance up on the right called Alfred Road. Turn left opposite this into what is little more than
a gap in the hedge marked after dark by red reflectors. You will find a car park beside the church a short way
down. The St Joan's Centre is on the far side of the church from the car park

Who are we in this film/movie/video club? We make films, videos and movies and meet on the first Friday of the month to answer members questions and to discuss ongoing club projects. Well known film makers, judges and film professionals are often our speakers for the evening. We welcome visitors and new members interested in film and video, and there is no need to own digital cameras or camcorders and no need for previous experience, as we happily provide mentors for beginners. Surrey Border meetings start at 7:45pm and end just after 10:00pm with a refreshment break at around 9:00pm. Visitors and new members are warmly welcomed to the monthly meetings which are on the first Friday of each month (and the first visit is free). Our meetings are held in our new contemporary hall in St Joan's Centre which is in the grounds of St Joan's church in Tilford Road, near the station in Farnham. The hall has a large car park and is within easy reach of Guildford, Farnborough, Fleet, Bordon etc. In Surrey and Hampshire. Read more about us here.
Our interests We have a good mix of interests amongst members include script writing, acting, directing, technical and artistic and all agree that ideas and skills are more important than equipment as shown by there being fewer cameras and camcorders than members. Some get more enjoyment in viewing and discussing the films produced by others and just being part of the community. There are those who wouldn't wish to ever hold a camera or camcorder while some like to help in filming but don't own their own camcorder. Of course there are always those with the latest high definition wizz bang up to date cameras, camcorders, microphones and gadgets and the lovely thing is that they are always happy to demonstrate both equipment and techniques to others. For anyone thinking of buying a camera or camcorder advice is always on hand. We have almost equal numbers of members with PC and Mac computers. We regularly put on courses, tutorials and training sessions in the light of the current interests and needs of members. Individuals with particular problems typically have one to one help.
