The Donegal Film Office will host a networking event in Letterkenny next week.
The event will take place in the Regional Cultural Centre on the morning of Friday, November 25th.
It is aimed at filmmakers in the Donegal area who would like to strengthen their county’s screen industry and is being held in conjunction with the National Talent Academies (NTA) for Film & TV and Crew Academy West.
This will include writers, directors, producers, and crew from all departments.
The gathering is for anyone interested in and/or currently working in film and TV.
This session will act as an incubator for local talent, giving the opportunity for Donegal filmmakers to meet and network while hearing from the Donegal Film Office and NTA on upcoming training, opportunities, and initiatives.
These include the Crew Academy West’s Passport to Production. Passport to Production is a Screen Ireland flagship programme which is now validated by the Technological University Dublin.
The Networking Coffee Morning will run from 11.00 AM –1PM and is open to all.
The NTA was established in 2021 and is an initiative of Screen Ireland to support and nurture diverse and regional talent with bespoke training opportunities and initiatives.
The Film Office acts as the main resource for filmmakers in Donegal and those who wish to film here from all over the world.
It was established by Donegal County Council in 2003 to promote the region and to help develop the profile of the county.
Working in cooperation with Fís Éireann (Screen Ireland), the office helps filmmakers to find locations, cast and crew, technical services and local service providers.
Their staff have extensive experience with visual production and are more than happy to deal with your enquiry, however big or small the production is.
Donegal has been the location for recent blockbuster productions including ‘It is in Us All’, ‘Gods Creatures’, ‘Obituary’ and ‘In the land of Saints & Sinners.’
