ROBE Village Ambrose and New Film done...
Been a great week on the course to be honest the enjoyment has been all about hitting the ball well. Have played myself into some good form for the Robe Village Ambrose today after winning the 9 hole Chicken run Friday arvo, 41 off the stick and 22 points. It has rained for an hour and a half this morning which will settle the dust and take a bit of the bounce off the fairways and greens, happy with that I still do not have the ball striking ability to get the back spin on long iron shots developed well enough yet.
The club AGM was on Wenesday night and after listening to the Club President speak, some alien force levitated my arm and I have ended up as the secretary of the club for the next year.
I had decided earlier to nominate for the committee and undertake a dedicated membership drive. Instead I have chosen to get a little more involved as the club is beggining to struggle and like many smaller country clubs is finding active members a scarce commodity. I have done my time on committees in the past and was never going to do it again mainly to avoid the situation that many who do this encounter, nobody else ever stands up to replace them.
I am sure that in coming months I will be more forthcoming on this and what is happening at the club. I have already written a three page letter on major considerations for the club to act upon and things I will do in the next twelve months.
Okay big day on the Golf Course for me In the ROBE Village Ambrose. So for all of you who have not yet had a look at my new film for the NSW Australia Day Committee have a look today and PLEASE VOTE!!! (One lucky voter will get a prizeTOO!!)
Aussie’s Younger Days Some friends have got back to me that the link sometimes goes to a film of a young girl singing that is an occaisional glitch on the site if that happens to you please look at the entrants list for my film name above. And please VOTE one lucky voter will win a prize donated by the NSW Australia Day Committee

REEL AUSTRALIA - Geoff Dening's entry
REEL AUSTRALIA - Geoff Dening's entry
It has been a very busy past month with two short film's completed and entered in various competitions. The most recent being the Reel Australia film "Aussie's Younger Days" Please have a look at my entry and vote (Shameless plug - there is a prize for one lucky voter!)
"Beginning with three flags representing the indigenous people, a state and the nation, I then recited selected poetry of Australia’s national poet Adam Lindsay Gordon who captured the first utterances of Australia’s forming identity. I chose to use images of monuments to explorers of our nation and immigrants together with a memorial of fishermen lost at sea to highlight the challenge it took to set off to the new lands. Australia is still a young country and the combination of rural and urban life is not hampered by the tyranny of distance as it was no more than a century ago. The view of Lake Albert at Meningie that was shrinking for 2 years, in the space of a month was back to past levels when the Murray began to flow again. Children are the future and being active and having a go is part of the Aussie ethos. Humanity and nature are things Australians do react to and our origins needed action to succeed and that is why I end with another iconic passage of Gordon’s poetry."
The Reel Australia Short Film Competition aims to encourage all Australians to create a 2 minute film in response to the question What is the Reel Australia? that ultimately showcases Who We Are as a nation. It could be about what we wear, what we say, where we go, how we play...it's completely up to you!

Reel Australia film production
The past month has been very busy and late last night I finished a 12 hour stint on the PC editing another film project That I was only recently made aware of and in a very short space of time have managed to get filmed and produced before the closing date on the 3rd of December 2010. At this moment all of the work of the past two weeks is now dependent on if it is accepted for the competition. That is the only reason why I have not supplied a link for it to be viewed. If it does pass muster a link will be supplied and yes I did manage to get golf in the 2 minute film.
“Create a 2 minute film capturing ’ What is the Reel Australia?’ Your film should ultimately showcase Who We Are as a nation”
“Beginning with three flags representing the indigenous people, a state and the national flag, I then recited selected poetry of Australia’s national poet Adam Lindsay Gordon who first captured the utterances of Australia’s forming identity. I chose to use images of monuments to explorers of our nation and immigrants together with a memorial of fishermen lost at sea to highlight the challenge it took to set off to the new lands.

Children are the future and being active and having a go is part of the Aussie ethos. Humanity and nature are things Australians do react to and our origins needed action to succeed and that is why I end with another iconic passage of Gordon’s poetry.”
From time to time this thread will continue to have fresh posts. As the “Another Crack At The Title” film is still being produced there will be updates for readers of the progress and developments associated with it. The pic in the corner is a scan of a recent interview about the Golf Documentary. I am fortunate to recieve such a detailed article in the local media and I would like to comend the reporter who did the job so well.
