Have you ever wandered how the cinema is run, well it is run by students giving up their time to provide you with one of the union's greatest services. Currently we have a lot of old students in the staff, and we need new blood to keep the cinema working. All we ask is that you can give up an evening and some time during the weekends to prepare the films and market the cinema. In return we will let you see the films for free, and you get something to talk about during interviews. Since the cinema is not union funded and has many aspects to its general operations, it looks great on the CV. So come along at 5pm on Tuesday or Thursday to find out how you can get involved in running the cinema. We still have not finalised the All-Nighter, so get involved and you can say, "It was me that made that event a success!"

[Cinema-List] No cinema this week
by Bottrell, Nathaniel 16 Oct '06

16 Oct '06

Hello, First of all I need to apologise for sending this newsletter late, it should be emailed to you on Friday's, but last Friday I ran out of time to write it. I was going to compile it during the evening, but I received a call at four from the Fellwanderers to say that there was a place on the weekend trip to Snowdonia. Since that part of Wales has some brilliant walks and scrambles, I just had to go! Hopefully all newsletters will be sent on Fridays. The cinema has no films this week as another society is using the UCH and that means we can't get in to screen a film. The cinema resumes next week, more information about next week is coming on Friday, or just check out our website <http://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/arts/cinema> . I will say just on thing about next weeks showings, we have a change of day for next week only, the Tuesday showing is being moved to Monday. Apart from the fact that we have no showings next week, you can still get our Unlimited Autumn Ticket from the Union Reception on the first floor of the Union Building. It is only £20. If you were to see every film once this term (excluding the All-Nighter), you would have to spend a maximum of £30, getting the Unlimited Autumn Ticket will save you £10. If you were to attend every showing, this would cost you a maximum of £51, so by getting the Unlimited Autumn Ticket, you would save £31. Even if you didn't want to see every film, you would only need to see seven out of eleven remaining films for you to break even with the ticket. You will be able to get the Unlimited Autumn Ticket from our Box Office which opens 15 minutes before each showing. If you want to learn projection or would like to run the cinema, then please come at 5pm on Monday 23 October. Anyway, look forward to seeing you all next week.
