Watch the documentary about the Little Cinema

December 3, 2013

Little Cinema Galway. A labour of love. Supporting film-making in Galway at grass roots levels. Fueled by the creativity of local film-makers and film-lovers. Ran by Kenny Gaughan, Liam Doherty and Julia Puchovska.

This is our ID project documentary made with the kind support of Galway Film Centre and Arts Council Ireland, Galway City Council and Galway County Council.

It is an opportunity for people that know us to think back over the 3 years of film-making, fun, networking and meeting some truly amazing people. And for people that don’t know us it is a chance to find out what Little Cinema is all about and how it supports film creativity in Galway.

We’d like to say big thank you to our project co-ordinator Nuala Broderick and our editor Manuela Corbari.

Many thanks to the wonderful interviewees Stephen Cadwell, BattleGar Stalactica,Carla Maria Tighe and Aaron Corless, Pickles Malarkey and Colin H McCay, Max Webb and their heart-felt insight.

Special thanks to Christopher Tierney from Fable Interactive Media for providing his awesome 3D animation skills as well as shooting some top footage for us during our screenings.

Last but not least, thanks to Kelly’s Galway for providing the space for all the magic to happen!


Little Cinema ID Project Screening

November 17, 2013

We had a great time today at Galway Film Centre’s ID Projects Documentary Screening in Town Hall Theatre.

It was a cool feeling to see the result of the last few month’s work of putting this documentary together! The doc will be online in about a month or so and we will share it then. Have a look at a few pics from today below in the meantime.

Congratulations also to St. Patrick’s Band, Ahascragh Development Organization and Madra, all brilliant projects!

The Big Announcement for Little Cinema

November 12, 2013

If you were listening to The Tubridy Show this morning at 9am you might have heard.

We have had the great fortune of having the awesome Chris O’Dowd come on board as a patron of the Little Cinema!

He generously offered funds towards getting some cool film-making equipment when we didn’t get the Arthur Guinness Grant. Chris is every bit as down to earth as you might imagine and is great for supporting the arts. With his help we can definitely spread the word about short film making in the West and beyond and help people out with making even higher quality films.

Once the podcast of the show is up we will put the link up to today’s interview.

Also, don’t forget the screening of our ID Projects Documentary at the Town Hall Theatre this Sunday at 3pm.

UP THE WESHT!


Little Cinema ID Project Documentary 17th November

November 4, 2013

Hello Little Cinema attendees, film-submitters and friends. Please save the date, Sunday 17th November to attend a screening at Town Hall of our Little Cinema ID Project Documentary.

We have been chosen by the Galway Film Centre to tell our story of the last three years of the Little Cinema in their annual project that depicts an identity of a group in a 15 minute documentary. A lot of work went into it and it’s going to be so amazing to see it on the big screen. We interviewed some of our Little Cinema regulars to share their experiences and we got some wonderful footage out of it. It will feel brilliant to be in the same room with all of them to celebrate!

The screening is open to everyone and the admission is free. There will be wine and nibbles too! The launch reception is at 2pm and the screening is at 3pm. We really hope to see you there!
