Hey guys,

I'm looking for someone who is interested in helping to film (and edit, maybe) a 3min video this week in Dublin (prob Thurs).

I'm working for/with an NGO on a blog which will launch on the 1st Oct. Its called the Global Irishman and is about development issues and faith. So we're writing about Syria, Democracy, Poverty, North Korea etc etc.

My role is to be the human rights voice in the whole thing... and what I want to do is challenge about WHY we care for other people.... I believe we have an inherent dignity (the idea of human rights) not because we are born with natural goodness ourselves, but because we are made in the image of God and therefore reflect Him.
so i was to make a video
and put up a mirror in Grafton St (or some public place) and have someone looking into it, while someone else spits on it, kicks it and smashes it up... as the public walk by..... Is the basic idea.

Do you have a camera and are you interested in helping to film?

Would love to hear from you

What's the budget for the shoot and how much are you paying the cameraman/editor?

I would also suggest getting permission from Dublin City Council to smash your mirror or you may find yourself with a fine!

Good luck with it.

Just out of interest who's paying for the mirror you're going to smash?

Just to add to my advice earlier. My son is studying film in BCFE in Ballyfermot and he and some of his class had to go on location locally to shoot a short movie for coursework. They arranged with a local shop manager if they could come after closing to shoot a 'hold-up' scene,
(I guess at this point, some of you clever 'plot guessers' will see where this is going to end) so during the rehearsal shoots, a passer-by had looked in the shop window and noticed the two "masked robbers" with balaclavas and they brandishing a toy pistol at the actor 'manager', and decided to call the Garda, and so at about five minutes in to the shoot, a Garda car screeches up outside and in burst three armed Garda with flak jackets on and shouting at the actors to drop their weapons! My son and his Director were reprimanded by a detective in Ballyfermot Garda station on how stupid they were for not informing the Garda about what they were planning and how lucky they were not to have been shot!
This REALLY happened, you have my word on it!

Not the first time filmmakers have ended up in trouble with the cops for something like this alright.

Always, always notify Gardai for shoots like this.

Although smashing a mirror isn't as bad as producing a firearm it is still something you will need permission to do. You will also have to have a clean-up plan. They won't be happy if you leave shards of broken glass on the street.

Hi Fiona,

Hey guys,

I'm a student filmmaker, and I've a shoot in Rathmines on Wednesday (30th) And i'm just wondering would any kind fellow be willing to lend me a slider for literally the duration of the shoot? Would be able to give it back that day.Everything is indoors, nothing dangerous or moving, I know i'm chancing the arm, but student film makers have to attempt these things one way or another.

Would really appreciate any help offered.

Thanks.

Hi everyone,

My boss has completed a short animatic based on the 1916 Rising. You can watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8r4zx2mjz5E

He is looking to polish it up and then present it to the Irish Film Board where he hopes to get funding and have it broadcast (also in talks with RTE). He is looking for a script writer to review the script, make changes and incorporate other stories to extend the script up to twenty minutes.

The job would be unpaid, as it is a start up company. However, you would be credited and it would be a great piece for a CV/Showreel. If anyone is interested and would like to hear more about the position please PM me.

What percentage of the funding is he willing to give to the script-writer if it gets funded by the Film Board and/or is sold to RTE?

Hi guys,

Im a film student looking to get some hands on experience of filming. I have all the filming and audio equipment available from college, but need people willing to give some of their time to help out with it, and more importantly actors looking to expand their portfolios. I'm hoping to make a short film or very short tv/web series.

I would also like to get a script to work from, so if any aspiring screenwriters out there want to see something they wrote filmed let me know.
This is not a paid project or anything, just an opportunity for people new to the industry to get some experience and practice, while expanding their portfolios

If anybodys interested please PM me

Myself and 3 others are final year multimedia students in DCU and our final year project is a short film, which we have scheduled to begin shooting in 4 weeks times on the 17th of February and expect to be finished 4 weeks later on the 16th March.

The budget is quite small. We will have a cast of 3 - 6 actors, 2 - 3 cameras , lighting and sound kit. Script is currently being redrafted and finalised.

We require a set locations for an opticians, an office and a house. Our shooting times are flexible to the extent that we can film outside of business hours and weekends if necessary.

We are based in Dublin but are willing to travel anywhere within the country.

Can anyone help please.
