Thanks for Scoring CineCycle!
By jonny ~ Posted Wednesday, April 17th 2013Wavelength's eighth annual co-presentation with the Images Festival was a resounding - and re-vision-ing - success! Thanks to everyone who came out to Scoring CineCycle last night at (you guessed it) CineCycle, as well as everyone from the Images team who helped make it happen, to the bands and band-leading composers who put so much work and creativity into making new scores, and to Martin Heath from CineCycle for hosting, projecting and providing the films from his own personal collection.
