A film made on early Kodachrome by Canterbury Cine Society in 1937 to illustrate the different filmic forms that could be made by the amateur.

An untitled film shot by Canterbury Cine Society on the Crooked Billet set, which was probably shot in 1938 but never completed. The film had not been fully edited.

Unedited rushes by Canterbury Cine Society from ‘Rough House,’ which was shot in the club studio at the Prince of Wales Institute during 1938-1939. The film was never completed.
