Audio Visual Showdown - May 11th, 2013
On 17th April, 2012,
an email was received from Jeff Morris, Chairman of Pretoria AV Club,
South Africa, mooting the idea of an international AV "battle". We had
met a couple of times at AV festivals in England and Wales the previous
year.
This has now emanated in a three way Audio Visual Showdown between East
Leinster AV Group, Shannon AV Group and Pretoria AV Group. The Committee
has been busy organising this event. 15 sequences (5 per AV Group) were
sent to the judges, Malcolm and Maggie Imhoff, well known AV workers in
England, judges and prize winners. They have judged the sequences and
sent their recorded comments and the results are in a sealed envelope
to be announced at the end of the Showdown!
The Showdown takes place on Saturday, 11th May in the Oakwood
Arms Hotel, Shannon (Starting at 10am). Pretoria will hold their
event on a different date
