It not only show’s that O’Shea feels confident behind the camera, but that, once again, she excels at perfecting the heart and soul of her subjects." I had an absolute blast shooting spec commercials over the past few days with some of my closest friends and loved ones. A huge thanks to those who pitched in and gave me their time in the middle of a heatwave. I appreciate all of you!
More thanks to the lovely folk at Rascals Brewery for donating us a heap of beer and pizza and to the wonderful staff at Parklife Cafe in Crumlin for allowing us invade their space and use all their coffee for the day. A final special shout out to Shane Serrano at Crude Media for doing an out of this world job at shooting these for me. He's truly one the best in the biz. I can't wait to share the final specs with you all. Laura O' SheaA personal blog for Archives
