2009/10 Programme Published

I have posted the programme for the coming season. Please have a look to see what is in store for next season.

NB_1: As announced at the AGM, submissions for Digital Projected images must now be provided as sRGB (rather than Adobe 1998). The good news is that if you don’t know what that means then you probably don’t need to worry about it!

NB_2: I will add briefings for the set subjects shortly. Please do make an effort to submit entires to the set subject competitions. UPDATE Set Subject requirements have been posted.

NB_3: Have a great summer recess.

Best Regards
Graham (Robinson, out going Prog Sec)
