Nationwide Film Making Courses – We come to you!
Young Irish Film Makers have dedicated film training facilitators that head out all over the country to schools, community groups and youth organizations and implement specially designed, practical film making workshops. These workshops include screenwriting, acting, directing and production skills (camera, lighting, sound, etc). The group will also learn how to edit a film using the latest software and an Apple Mac computer. At the end of the programme each participant walks away with a DVD copy of their movie.
Testimonials
‘The process of getting young people to come up with an idea and follow the film making practice and see an end result. This works particular well for young people who need to see out come.’
‘It was very good process for the young people to learn, good for self esteem and positive for mixing peers and genders. Building their ability to stay focused on a goal.’
‘Great for self-confidence and the young people really got a sense of achievement – when watching the film.’ “Staff at Extern Limerick”
The impact of the film project that we undertook under your guidance is unfolding day by day in positive stories and experiences by all the young people involved. It has given them a sense of achievement, improved self esteem and confidence and some of the group were even encouraged enough by the process to return to school with a few to studying film and media in third level.“Kelly O’Keefe – Youth Justice Worker Limerick”
As part of our programme of 2010/2011, we fortunately secured the services of the Young Irish Film Makers. From the outset this organisation was excellent to deal with. They were open, friendly, accommodating, flexible, but most importantly understanding of our client base and the issues that pertain to them. “Aisling Mulhall – Southside Community Leadership, Limerick”
The YIFM is a valued contributer to Fresh Film Festival and has consistantly high production standards in their films. The office and outreach staff are attentive, reliable and interested in promoting and developing the work of young people. “Ciarda Tobin – Fresh Film Festival”
