A 40 hour programme to develop confidence in young film makers in acting, writing, and directing </h2>
<div class="theme-p theme-color-4" data-target="content">
<br />
<b><i><a data-id="l-4352060527" href="http://www.corkfilmcentre.com/first-take/" rel="nofollow">Cork Young Filmmakers</a></i> </b>with <b>Cork Film Centre </b>are delighted to offer<b> 12 places </b>to young people on the<b> 2014 'Towards Confident Film Making', a 40 hour film making programme </b>designed to build confidence in aspiring <b>young filmmakers age 15-21.</b><br />
<br />
<b>Is this For You?</b><br />
Do you feel like you have great ideas, would love to follow them through but feel that something is holding you back? <i>Towards Confident Film Making</i>
is for young people passionate about film-making, who want to develop
their skills and confidence in the areas of writing, story-telling,
directing and acting.<br />
<b> What's on this workshop?</b><br />
<i>Towards Confident Film Making</i><i> </i>is
led by film director, Jane Lee. A number of other professional
filmmakers will be providing training, guidance and mentoring throughout
the whole programme. The first four days will focus on drama games and
film exercises to unleash creativity and build up skills in acting,
directing and crafting a story. In the second week we will put these
skills to use in exploring themes, writing and creating a short film.
Working along side Jane will be Orla Burke, Shaun O Connor, Ciara Hyland
and Max Le Cain, all talented professional filmmakers who are
successful in their own right.<br />
<b> What's different about this workshop?</b><br />
<i>Towards Confident Film Making </i>is
not just about making a great movie. It's about learning the skills to
make a great movie - and to enjoy doing so. The focus is on the process
of film-making, not just the end result. Participants will learn how to
learn skills for themselves, how to identify and move past their own
‘blocks’ in writing and performance. It is also about finding your own
authentic voice and having the confidence to use it. <br />
<b><br /> </b><br />
<b>Application Criteria:</b><b></b><br />
<ul>
<li>You must be aged between 15 - 21 years old. </li>
<li>You
must be living in the Cork area; we are particularly looking for
applications from the Youghal area where we plan for this Towards
Confident Film Making programme to take place. </li>
<li>You must be available to attend all the training sessions, see below for Dates.</li>
<li>You must be keen to explore and develop your skills through writing, acting and/or directing. </li>
<li>Some experience in film-making is preferable.</li>
</ul>
<b><br /></b>

<b><br /></b>
<b>The deadline for applications is Friday September 12th 5pm.</b><br />

must make their own travel arrangements and bring a packed lunch each
day.</b><br />

<span style="font-size: small;">This

develop a practical model for working with young people who are

Young bands are being given a chance to win a music video shoot on Spike Island as part of an exciting competition.</div>
<br />
First Cut! Youth Film Festival has invited bands from Co Cork to submit their proposals to the Spike Music Video Competition. <br /><br />
Festival coordinator Mary McGrath said bands must submit songs and
proposals outlining how they would feature the striking buildings of
Fort Mitchell and the special setting of Spike Island in Cork Harbour in
their music videos. <br /><br /> A panel of judges will choose the best
seven songs and creative ideas based on the quality of the songs and the
bands’ creative approach. <br /><br /> Each band will then be supported by a professional film maker who will work with them through filming and post-production. <br /><br /> The music videos will be premiered during the First Cut film festival in Cobh in October. <br /><br /> There are also plans to have the seven bands perform on the bandstand on Cobh’s promenade during the film festival. <br /><br />
But Ms McGrath said that for the first year of the competition, entry
will be restricted to young bands from Cork county only. <br /><br /> "We’re currently looking for bands, groups or ensembles of all genres to apply for this event," she said. <br /><br /> She urged bands to contact festival organisers by email at firstcutfilm@ gmail.com. <br /><br />
First Cut! Youth Film Project works in association with Cork Film
Centre and is funded by The Arts Office of Cork County Council and South
and East Cork Area Development Ltd. <br /><br /> The First Cut! Film Festival also receives financial assistance from the Arts Council. <br /><br /> * To see a promotional video, log onto: <a href="http://www.vimeo.com/45467385" target="_blank">www.vimeo.com/45467385</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5879912369916545124.post-65566536477690923462012-06-14T02:07:00.000-07:002012-06-14T02:07:33.289-07:00First Draft Winners 2012The winning short stories in this year's First Draft Competition are <i>Untitled Zombie Sketch</i> by Cian Johnston and <i>Cat Prince</i> by Ellie Menton.

<b><i>Cat Prince </i>by Ellie Menton</b><br />
<br />
It is a short story about a girl named Kyoko who has recently moved to Ireland from Japan. She is stuck in a world of fantasy – her new classmates find her strange and shun her. She gets extremely lonely and upset. <br />
<br />
One day, while she is walking to school, she runs into a boy named Prince. He is the first person her age to treat her kindly. He takes a small piece of paper from his pocket and hands it to her – it has a picture of a cat on it. He tells her it will bring her good luck. She thanks him and goes to school, where she is approached by a girl who seems to like fantasy just as much as Kyoko. They become fast friends, and Kyoko is a lot happier. <br />
<br />
The truth is that Prince was possessed by the spirit of the Cat from the Zodiac folktale. He travels from town to town, helping sad, lonely people because they share the same emptiness in their hearts. The piece of paper with the Cat on is his way of granting a wish, as even though he suffers most, he wants to help others. Nobody usually thanks Prince for his kind deed, as they are too absorbed in their newfound good fortune. <br />
<br />
Kyoko, however, gets up extra early the next day, with a gift she plans to give Prince to thank him. She spends the morning running around town, and eventually finds him while he is about to leave. He is so surprised and happy by this gesture he cries. Every time he did a good deed, the miserable feeling felt by the person before were transferred to him. When Kyoko thanks him, the Cat inside him is released, and enormous pressure is lifted from Prince. He hugs her, and then, accepting her gift graciously, sets off to return to his family, which he hasn’t seen in years. Kyoko goes to school and is happy with her new friend.<br />

With workshops in Killeagh, Ballincollig, Cobh and Glanmire to follow over the next few days, and more scheduled for next month, First Cut! is full steam ahead!<br /><br />And that's not all!
