Subject: Media Table Meet-Up London sina@redrugproductions.com; artofafrica@hotmail.com Are you serious ? Are you fun ? Then you may benefit by joining our new growing group of media hotshots. People who love film and media creation. This time last year in LA, Sina and I went to a media networking group held in a restaurant where members each pitched their projects and interests to the group, got feedback and suggestions from the room, and carried on networking afterwards over drinks. The LA group is chaired by a couple, Marc and Elaine Zicree who have been running it for many years, and have prolific TV credits. Linked groups also run in New York and Miami. It has helped members in areas such as crewing up a film, finding locations, meeting business collaborators, building an audience, organizing a table read of a script or getting updates on relevant industry events. We’re keen to do something similar in London once a month, where members are invited to join The Table either by myself and Peter, or by referral from another member. Once they’ve been, members can come along when they choose to, and can potentially link to Table members in LA. New York, Miami ... We’ve made a great deal with The Noodle House, a new restaurant with a smart private restaurant/bar downstairs, situated in Shaftsbury Avenue, LONDON halfway between Tottenham Court Road and Leicester Square tubes. <imgres.jpeg><XE605230_942long.jpeg> https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/the+noodle+house/@51.5127172,-0.1286308,16z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0x370108d142dcab53 VERY tasty food, and cocktails if you like them…or healthy teas if you don’t drink alcohol... They are offering us their pre-theatre menu with a choice of starter, main course and one included drink for £15 per head. This is the minimum spend per person. You can check out the menu here: http://static.squarespace.com/static/52ea7651e4b074062a41f40d/t/54200466... Our first meet-up will be Thursday 6th November at 6.30pm, with food orders and introductions to the group running from 7pm. Many of us are working hard at our creative projects and make our main income from day jobs that may or may not be media related, so the basis for inviting new members is not that you’re making a full time living out of it, but to develop a flexible group of professionals who are passionate about film, TV and/or media and have active projects or aims they are committed to. It’s for focused media makers newcomers looking to be inspired by and connected to more seasoned pros " a symbiotic exchange " although levels of experience will vary) The LA group are structured about giving everybody 3 mins each to present, and they chair it so that that the time given to each person’s input is fair. Marc Zicree suggests that we don’t post on facebook or generic social media as this can dilute the quality of the group. Hope you can join us, and if you can’t make this first date, let us know if you want to stay on the mailing list!
