Take a quick look at the menu on your left. Those of you who are regular readers of this page might notice that the “newsletter” link is gone and has been replaced by a “mewsings” link. Big deal, you might think. The newsletter is called Mewsings, so that’s not very strange. In fact, it is a big deal. The Chlotrudis Society for Independent Film has suspended publication of Mewsings… or rather, we have altered publication.
In an effort to provide you with interesting tidbits of information, from local film news and member profiles, to film festival round-ups and interviews, we will be taking a two-pronged approach. Much of the information traditionally found in the Mewsings newsletter will be integrated into this webpage. You will soon find an “interviews” page where you can read the interviews of filmmakers done for Chlotrudis. Film Festival Round-Ups are already published on the “reviews” page.
What Mewsings itself if evolving into is a way Chlotrudis members can communicate with members and non-members alike. Mewsings is a blog. On this blog, Chlotrudis members will communicate with you about film. This is an evolving page which we hope will grow to include a two-way conversation with all of our members. To start with, Beth, Chris, Hilary, Ivy, Michael & Scot will be bringing you their observations about independent film in many different ways. We hope this will provide you with some dynamic, absorbing material to add to your reading list. Be patient, as with all new endeavors, there are bound to be some growing pains until we settle into a comfort zone which we will then push against.
