Hey everyone,
Anyone who have registered personal entries for the Smedias can you let
me know so we can cover the cost of your entries and so we can make the
final submissions for you.
We also have 6 entries available for any of you that missed the registration
deadline in both Radio and Video and still want to enter. However, depending
on demand for these places it will be decided on merit.
This is vital that it is done immediately as the closing date for getting
your entries in is Monday. I will be available at the radio studio from
twelve o'clock on Friday to collect entries. Don't forget to check that
you have your entry in the right format, check this on the website.

Hey,
Still loads of places left for Sean farrell's talk tonight in the TV studio.
This should be of great interest to all you inspiring communications andmultimedia
students who are frustrated at our lack of equipment here in DCU. As sean
started out as a freelancer himself, he is used to working on minimum equipment
and has agreed to direct his attention to what DCU can offer. He was technical
officer at RTE for many years and is very familiar with what is necessary
for the TV industry today. Now he works as head of production resources
at RTE so get in there, get your face recognised, ask loads of questions
and you may get a bit of experience at a later stage?!
So 6.30 , upstairs on first floor of Henry Grattan building in the TV studio.Cya
then
Lorraine
hey!
Just to let you know theres a Journalism/Media career talk tonight in the
Business School Q120 from 7pm. Should be worth a look, Taragh Loughrey Grant
from FM104, also people from Irish TImes, RTE etc.
DCU FM Wrap up Party tonight in the New Bar at 8.30, just to finish up last
week properly with a few drinks!
