I confirmed four Leicester venues today for screenings during the 3rd docfilm festival between Wednesday 7th- Tuesday 13th November.
They were Adult Education (former library) on Belvoir Street, the Cookie Jar (Crumblin Cookie) will host the Reportage Club on Saturday 10th and the Central Library on Bishop Street. Phoenix Square Film & Digital Media Centre will host a premiere with Q&A on Friday 9th.
It's also Community Media Week during that week and Phoenix Square will host the 2nd Dzine Disability Film Festival on Sunday 11th November.

Docfilm Network Information
The next meeting of the DocFilm Network will be held in the Screen Lounge on Tuesday 17th April.
Running between 6-9pm the DocFilm Network aims to support a network of local professionals and enthusiasts interested in supporting the regional documentary making sector. The idea is to establish quarterly networking opportunities at Phoenix Square that can support documentary filmmakers including equipment and funding. I'm pleased to announce this new network will be part of the Leicester Media Network being established as a collaboration between FD2D, Cuttlefish and Citizens Eye.
I'm planning a dedicated showcase at the next docfilm festival filled with this content.
A major topic for discussion is the increased use of the studio on the basement level of Phoenix Square. This venue is under utilised and opportunities need to be explored for generating media content. Also if interested parties have already established media channels that need content, then it is hoped the network can support this.
An opportunity exists for Citizens Eye via its Newsnet partners to feed locally produced film content to the Community Channel and the new monthly show called UK360. The Citizens Eye community media week back in November 2011 had a 4 minute feature in the 2nd programme.
The Community Channel is owned and run by the Media Trust. It is the UK's only digital television station dedicated to highlighting issues from the community, voluntary and charitable sector, both locally and internationally. The channel is broadcast on Virgin 233, 24/7 on Sky 539 and on Freeview 87 from 5am-8am. Community Channel is available on BT Vision and Sky Anytime's On Demand service.
An exciting project being launched as part of the cmc2012 project is the creation of Citizens Eye TV for local community news programming. We are seeking content providers for dedicated weekly and monthly slots in the schedule.
If you operate in the film media sector in the East Midlands region then this event should be of interest to you.
If you have any specific queries ahead of the event please contact John Coster editor@citizenseye.org
