AMY
Amy joined the Big Sky Cinema team following owning and managing Screen 22 Cinema, (The World’s Smallest Cinema) in Nottingham for six years – she’s a self-confessed cinephile with a particular love of soundtracks. She became involved with our pop-up cinema venture due to a love of sharing the magic of the big screen with audiences and creating memories for all.
She manages our social media and content, as well as being the lady to answer any questions you may have about film choices and media licensing. She’s likely to be found capturing the fun at our events with a camera and will be setting up the screen and projectors with our other team member Iain to ensure you experience every moment perfectly.

IAIN
Iain’s journey with the Big Sky Cinema team began many, many miles away in Africa – in Meru where he headed up a project to provide a cinema experience where sadly there just aren’t lots of cinemas per town. He worked hard to establish a cinema experience for locals and their community.
We consider him our technical wise wizard, like Gandalf minus the staff. Iain has decades of experience in running live music venues and working with specialised equipment – in short; he’s our tech whisperer.
He’s the person to chat to about any technical requirements you have, any queries you may have about our screens and sound systems and how much power will be required to ensure your event runs smoothly.
At events, you’re most likely to find him moving speakers, checking sound levels and ensuring that all runs smoothly and enjoying the feature from behind the screen.

STEVE
Steve made the original equipment purchase for Big Sky Cinema linking up with Open Air Cinema in the USA.
Steve is our logistics man of the team; he’s also who will be organising the catering for your event and at our public screenings. Part of our organisation includes Super Kitchen. Thus we have the poetic licence to create culinary delights to suit your event’s theme if required or provide a buffet to feed everyone.
At events, Steve is found greeting, meeting and serving the audience with his catering team from our fantastic food truck and serving freshly popped popcorn for you to devour as the sun goes down and the film lights up the sky.

Steve shares a scary resemblance to superhero Mr Incredible! - Favourite Film
