“I've been to a few screenings at BGWMC hosted by Close-Up (including one of my own!) and have been really impressed by the ease and professionalism with which the shows were handled. Great films (!) good crowd, relaxed atmosphere, interesting discussion.” – Guy Sherwin, Filmmaker

“Working with Close-Up for our film programme Under/Over was a flawless experience, the films were presented with absolute professionalism and technical prowess.  The whole season of films ran seamlessly and often in the presence of the filmmakers themselves, whose feedback was completely positive with regard to both context and technical presentation.” –  Ailsa Ferrier, Artificial Eye
