Week 10: Programming Part 1

  • Lecture Theatre A 40 George Square Edinburgh, Scotland, EH8 9JX United Kingdom (map)

PROGRAMMING PART 1! FilmSoc needs you!

Do you want to be part of deciding what goes on next semester’s programme? Then come vote! Membership is required.

Part 1 of programming involves you pitching the movies you've been suggesting throughout the semester. We work through the list and you can speak for the movies you suggested or the ones you would be happy to speak for. You get 30 seconds to convince the room of the choice. If a film is not pitched, it’s out of the running!

Then we vote. Each member gets a slip of paper for each of the 3 categories (classic, new, foreign). On the paper, you rank 5 films, which receive a certain number of points based on your ranking:

Your  #1 choice gets 5 points

Your #2 choice gets 4 points

Your #3 choice gets 3 points

Your #4 choice gets 2 points

Your #5 choice gets 1 point

If a film gets no points, it’s out! Points are added up and the surviving films are ranked in their categories.

We have also booked out a space in 32 Below to have some well deserved drinks after we’re done!
