The new Iphone app for Independent Cinema
NWS member Paul Fillingham has just launched a shiny new iPhone app as a follow-up to the redesigned Broadway Cinema website. The app, developed by Loughborough-based Cuttlefish Multimedia in conjunction with Nottingham's Victoria Creative, is the first of its kind for independent cinema in the UK.
The app allows users to 'favourite' films from Broadway's current programme, set reminders, and make bookings. Ratings and reviews can also be posted to the website directly from the app, and these also appear on the large projection screen located in the Broadway Cafe Bar itself.
The social platform developed by Cuttlefish provides a digital space for reviewers, writers, and creative practitioners to discuss Broadway films and events. Audience Development Officer Andy Batson says, "in the future, Broadway will be using their 'bSocial' platform to host discussions with film-makers and screenwriters".

Paul concludes, "our company is developing several apps that will be of interest to NWS members, including cultural trails relating to our region's famous authors. I would personally be very interested in working with publishers and writers to develop new literary work for reading tablets such as the Apple iPad."
