AWARDS

Competition brings out the best in all of us. It provides a focus to encourage effort and achieve excellence. It shows what is possible, and spurs us on to raise our game. We learn much from watching others and asking questions - how did you do that?

There are many competitions open to film makers, at club level, Inter-club, Regional, National and International levels. Within the RFVM we have many members over the years who have achieved greatness. You can too!
