Dave Skertchly loves animation and his film \u2018Mary Rose the True Story\u2019<\/strong> showed his skills to perfection. As Dave explains; ‘Mary Rose the True Story is inspired by the cartoons made by Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin back in the 1960, you may recall Ivor the Engine, Noggin the Nogg and let\u2019s not forget John Ryan\u2019s Captain Pugwash.’ <\/span><\/p>

‘This film was made using a low cost technique from those days called limited animation; it cost about \u00a35.00 to make, a huge budget by my standards, but it did take some 8 years. <\/span><\/p>

It tells the story of why the Mary Rose sank in front of Henry the VIII on that fateful day in July 1545 and we find out that it was \u201ctrue loves story\u2026strange but true\u201d.’
<\/span><\/p>

Dave’s ‘Story of Mary Rose’ won the <\/span><\/span>coveted \u2018Jackson Trophy\u2019 for Overall Winner.<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/h6>
He also won the Pat <\/span>Doherty Cup for \u2018Best use of Sound\u2019.<\/span><\/span><\/h6>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

It was cleverly edited by club <\/span>member Paul Vernon. Filmed during the <\/span>Covid Lockdown by Marty\u2019s Daughter Kim, <\/span>who was also a successful pop singer in the <\/span>1980\u2019s. <\/span><\/p>

Tim Stannard <\/span>a new Surrey <\/span>Border <\/span>member <\/span>entered a <\/span>music film<\/span> \u2018I Don\u2019t Know How to Love Him\u2019, featuring his daughter, Elise. <\/span><\/p>

Tim explained that he and Elise recorded this during the first lockdown. He arranged and recorded the music in Reaper, using samples with a couple of live instruments. Elise played the piano parts – and sang.\u00a0
<\/span><\/p>

His film was awarded the <\/span>\u2018Arthur English Trophy\u2019 for <\/span>Best Photography.<\/span><\/span><\/h6>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A second film from Tim was called <\/span>\u2018Cluedunnit\u2019. This was f<\/span>ilmed for a CEMRIAC 24hour challenge, where a film had to be written, shot, edited and delivered over the course of a weekend.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>

Tim explained that he’d wanted an excuse to try a “colour pop” technique in DaVinci Resolve and a mix of film noir storyline and characters from Cluedo gave that opportunity. The murder comedy, cleverly based on the popular board game Cluedo, was highly rated.

Gillian’s second film was \u2018The Eternal Battle\u2019.\u00a0<\/span> Gillian explained that just happened to be looking out of the window with camera to hand and it was pure luck she caught the squirrels attempts to overcome a squirrel proof bird feeder in her garden. <\/span><\/p>

“All the activity took place over about 15 minutes on day one, then I moved the furniture about and again happened to be in the right place when presumably the same squirrel tried once again the next day.’<\/span><\/p>

‘It seemed to learn from both occasions as this took place in the spring of 2020\u00a0 and all the squirrels then stopped trying.”<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Philip Morley\u2019s \u2018The Unsung Hero\u2019. <\/span>A remarkable achievement and a major effort to salute a brave man with distinguished service. Working only with old photographs and clips of film \u2013 some from family archives and some from the Imperial War Museum, it tells of his remarkable naval career in less than six minutes.
I chose to introduce the subject as \u201cFred\u201d \u2013 almost an archetype of the ordinary young man of the time. The audience has no clue about how his career will progress or his final achievements.<\/p>

The film refers to the sinking of the \u201cHood\u201d, a story that still means something \u2026 that great ship seemed indestructible in its time. That Fred\u2019s brother lost his life on it adds personal tragedy to the story.<\/p>

But on \u201cFiji\u201d Fred became a true hero. We had never considered the risk that depth charges and torpedoes ready for action, could, on a sinking ship, explode and kill any survivors in the water. That he had time to make them safe was a miracle. Then the tale of how he was saved by the brave actions of seaman Kirkpatrick makes it seem as if he had been marked by the divine for rescue.<\/p>

This film <\/span>won Philip the \u2018Moorey Trophy\u2019 for Best Documentary.<\/span><\/span><\/h6>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The \u2018Island of Dragon\u2019s\u2019 was <\/span>Peter Stratford’s documentary entry. Filmed in the <\/span>Galapagos Islands it introduced the audience <\/span>to the miniature Spiny Tailed Iguana with <\/span>some informative and sometimes comical narration on its habits and lifestyle. <\/span><\/p>

Peter revealed that these creatures have evolved to be completely indifferent to humans, and it is possible to get some great close-up shots while they recline on the rocks. He also had fun when scripting the commentary back home, injecting some humour and\u00a0 making it more reminiscent of Alan Whicker than David Attenborough!<\/span><\/p>

An impromptu visit to witness visitors partaking in the sport of Bungee and Swing over the Waikato River in Taupo New Zealand – February 2020 – resulted in Gordon Sutton’s film \u2018Live More \u2013 Fear Less\u2019.<\/span><\/p>

Gordon managed to film some <\/span>daredevil footage from a Bungee <\/span>Jump site located on Lake Taupo <\/span>New Zealand. He managed to <\/span>capture the thrill and fear from <\/span>the jump preparation to the moment when <\/span>airborne. He also interviewed some of the <\/span>people after they had jumped for their effusive <\/span>reaction. Gordon said he kept his feet firmly on <\/span>the ground throughout filming!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Colin Lewis\u2019s film \u2018James Whitaker Wright\u2019 was a documentary about the American swindler and millionaire, who made his money in mining. He also developed the London Underground tunnels and used their design to install an underwater ballroom in the lake of his U.K house Lea Park which then became Witley Park. He took his own life, by swallowing a cyanide pill, as a result of being sentenced to 7 year of penal servitude.<\/p>
