FUJI OPEN GOLF WINNERS TO THE FORE
PAINTBALL PLAYERS GO SPLAT
SINGLE-MINDED SARA
CORRECTION
Ray Adams with 35 points,
and Warwick Fielding with 40 points, were Individual Stableford winners at two of the industry’s most prestigious and enjoyable annual golf days. Set a month apart (June 4 and July 1) at courses geographically adjacent
(St George’s Hill GC and Burhill GC in Surrey), there was also a less-than- seasonal consistency about the weather for both the Fuji Open Golf Day and Fuji’s joint event with LWT. The ever-splendid hospitality included well-stocked “halfway houses”, stocked by Ambassador and Fuji’s Richard Pun was, as always, the perfect host.

It was organised by Glory production manager Paul Viollet to celebrate the completion of Fuji’s demo film F250 Splat (which had a paintball theme). Staged at Campaign Paintball near Effingham, Surrey,

there were representatives from all production areas - camera, grips, lab, editing and even insurance - who joined teams sponsored by suppliers like Metrocolor, Lee Lighting and Fuji.
Individual honours went to Fuji’s Rachel Baker, whose derring-do won her Campaign’s ‘Best Player’ trophy, and Robin Whitmore, of insurance brokers Allan Chapman & James, for ‘Most Sportsmanlike Player’, while Metrocolor’s Dorian and Lee’s Jackie were judged to be equally ‘Dazed And Bruised.’ ■

Its cinematographer Tony Pierce-Roberts BSC is not actually an Academy Award winner, as stated, but has been twice Oscar nominated - for A Room With A View and Howards End.
