Thank you, Bill, glad you enjoyed. I have fun being the "documentarian."

Claus's pics are great PR for Cinesea, I imagine a lot more people will try to make the next one in May.

A few closing comments and pictures.

It seems some folks think this is "too small" an event to get to, or that the location is not good enough.

Consider this: the very charm of it is that it is not a mega-event in a big city hotel, but that it is set on the Jersey shore in a funky, fun area, and right on the ocean, beautiful beach and all.

I don't think anyone who has come to CineSea has walked away disappointed. The friendly feeling, the 50/60es atmosphere of Wildwood...it's just very enjoyable.
A special mention to the lovely Simone who runs the front desk at the Ocean Holiday Resort. With her spirit and great stories, she always kicks us off to a great start when we arrive.

A few last pics that just drive home why we come: the love of film. The ability of film to make us sad, happy, intense...the power and beauty of the medium:

Thank you for following this long thread; I hope some of what you saw might influence your travel plans in the spring of 2013 [Big Grin]

A final view, a typical one; the last evening sunlight hitting the Morey's Pier amusement park down the road:

See you at CineSea.

Claus.

Michael,

Unfortunately Shorty couldn't make it this time. Not only was his knowledge of Blackhawk/short films missed, but also the fun when he and Gary Crawford do impromptu bits using dozens of different voice impressions. Give these men a show of their own!

Claus those pictures stand by themselves as an advert for your
convention,excellent, and Doug does remind me of Harrison Ford,
no offense intended.

I'll let Doug and you battle it out over the Ford reference...hey there are far worse things to be called in this world [Big Grin]

I believe there are more film collectors in the USA than in the UK. But the vast land of this country making it is not easy to invite people gather together in one place.

But the Cinesea has brought a new dimension of film collecting hobby in the USA.

Good job Cinesea was not this weekend - New Jersey is going to get pounded from Hurricane Sandy.

Paul,

Yes indeed....the parkway that leads to Atlantic City and Wildwood has just been closed due to flooding.

Hi, there! Any chance the new gathering will take place during the period 3/29 - 4/2 2013? In that case I might make it to the event (I'd really love to).

Well done everybody!

Maurizio,

I can't say definitely yet, however it looks like the next CineSea will take place in early May. Please let me know if you'll be coming into New York as it would be terrific to see you again.

We should really get the next event date listed on the BFCC site. And now that I mention it, anyone got the date for Geoff Wheeler's gathering at Tadley next year?

The Now for the obscure: hands in the air, has anyone ever heard of...the Synchronex Radiant???

This would be the Silma 250S In the UK known as Prinz Compere Super 8, these were sold in the UK by Dixons High Street shops. Silma were an Italian manufacture and some appeared as OEM badged.

Hope the 2013 event is a good time for all you collectors over there.

I love the smell of film in the morning.
