The Victoria Hall is the home of Ellon Cinema which is run entirely by volunteers. The Hall is equipped with its own cinema quality (DCI) digital projector, file server and a 5.1 surround sound system featuring a Dolby CP750 sound processor to allow the screening of recent releases from DCP files only a few weeks after initial release at the main cinemas. The film delivery and cinema support services are provided by Edinburgh based Indy Cinema Group who liaise on our behalf with the film distributor for delivery of encrypted film files, de-encryption keys, accounting and payment of rights fees and delivery of posters. Ellon Cinema volunteers continue to improve where possible and following upgrading the balcony area they have installed 44 acoustic panels specially designed to reduce reverberation thereby, improving the cinema sound experience. A new satellite system has been installed which has allowed the screening of live broadcasts of concerts, plays and ballet as and when these are made available to the team.

British Board of Film Classifications (BBFC) - What do they mean?U - Universal: A U film should be suitable for audiences aged four years and over. However, it is impossible to predict what might upset a particular child, especially at this lower end of the category range. PG - Parental Guidance: A film that is suitable for general viewing, but some scenes may be unsuitable for younger children. A PG film should not disturb a child aged around eight or older. Parents should consider whether the content might upset younger or more sensitive children. 12 A: This means that anyone aged 12 or over can go and see the film unaccompanied. The A stands for 'accompanied' and 'advisory'. Children younger than 12 may see the film if they are accompanied by an adult (e.g. someone over the age of 18), who must watch the film with them. 15: 15 rated works are not suitable for children under 15 years of age therefore no-one under 15 is allowed to see a 15 film at the cinema (or even buy/rent a '15' rated DVD). 18: For adults. No-one under 18 is allowed to see an 18 film at the cinema or buy/rent an 18 rated DVD. No 18 rated works are suitable for children. |
