Also, if you’re an actor it helps so much because I now understand what it’s like from the Director/DOP’s point of view.” Ruth “Brilliant course! So much insight on the process and lots of fun with Laura and Shimmy. Can only recommend this!” Noah “What a brilliant couple of days. Loved this Short Film course, learned loads. Looking forward to putting it to use and future collabs with a great group too.” Carroll “Two days learning from the very best, can’t recommend enough! 5 Stars.” Jason Check out the other wonderful courses added to their Spring slate!

Hidden Assets S2 Premiere1/9/2023 Hidden Assets S2 starts on RTE1 at 9:30pm this Sunday evening (Sept 3rd) and you are all in for a treat! I had the most wonderful time as Shadow Director on this season - I even got to cut my teeth on some 2nd Unit Directing. I can’t thank Thaddeus O’ Sullivan and Kadir Ferrati Balci enough for being so generous with their time and wisdom and to Siobhán, Kate, Catherine & Orlaith for giving me the wonderful opportunity to spend weeks on the show, both in my hometown of Limerick and in beautiful Antwerp. Here’s to S2 and all the hard work of an amazing cast and crew!   Back by popular demand! We had such a great time doing this workshop in April and I can't wait to do it again this Nov 1st & 2nd.
