What is an AV?
An Audio Visual consists of projected images and sound, carefully combined to create a certain mood and/or message. It is much more than photos set to music!
We look forward to see you at our monthly AV evenings as member, newcomer or as guest!
The HPS AV Group meets every last Wednesday of a month at 19:00 for 19:30 in the Somerset West Library Hall. It’s an informal meeting where we share and discuss our AVs, listen to inspiring talks, set creative goals for ourselves and show short demos and tips.
We also offer day workshops that combine audio-visual specific talks and practical AV creating sessions, as well as a creative photo / AV weekend away.
