Roy Hanney Director of Making Waves Film Festival said:

"The landscape of cinema exhibition has changed over the last few years, in part due to the pandemic which saw a shift towards streaming and a general change in audience behaviour. At the same time, there have been a number of success stories for live, event, immersive and expanded cinema. 

This special event is open to cinema fans curious to experience film is a new way and event producers looking for new ideas and opportunities"  

Yael Freidman, Principal Lecturer and Academic Lead in Media and Screen Studies at the University of Portsmouth said:
