We are going to have a media 100 workshop this wed at 2 in c123.
Ideally this is for jrs, and css as they use this stuff in their own projects.
But if anyone is else is interested please do come. We are gonna go over
the D9 camera: even though this is a more awkward older camera, you might
be interested as it uses digi-beta.
Hope to see you there
Thanx

Hi there people,
I'm very sorry about this email if you aren't interested.
There are more auditions for male characters in the short film 'Mating Rituals'for
all those guys who couldn't make it last week due to other important stuff
(drinking...football...eating...sleeping...).
So a few people were asking me to hold more for those guys who couldn't
make it. They will be on at 7:30pm until 9pm in CG03 on Monday 33nd November.
Any questions, you can repply to this email address: karen.howley2(a)mail.dcu.ie
Here's a brief description of the male characters in the short comedy. Please
note that physical appearance is not important.
Dave Irwin
A really enthusiastic in your face guy who loves wild life and has way too
much energy. He is humourous for this reason.
Trigger
Trigger fancies himself as a bit of a ladies man and he?s all hyped up excited
and cocky when he goes out.
Mick
He?s never had any problem meeting women and is generally found in a GAA
football jersey.
Anto
Anto is a small guy who is a bit shy and timid, but a bit of a loveable
character when you get talking to him, with a really dirty sense of humour
that?s always getting him into trouble.
Hey guys,
Just a quick reminder to you all that the lighting workshop is on tonight
after Ruth Scotts presentation in the Glassroom. So hopefully we will be
starting around eight. The Glassroom is upstairs in the hub just past USIT
beside the barbers. See you there,

Hey guys,
Sorry about the lack of notice about this workshop firstly. But anyway here
we have it, on Wednesday night after the Ruth Scott Workshop in the Glassroom
we are going to have a basic lighting workshop. This will cover a basic
set up for an interview, also some info on gels, difusion etc... and a few
other things. This will be handy for those of you hoping to shoot some interviews
in a studio type situation and any other static type situations in your
projects. Lights can be used in a lot of situations to add an extra dimension
to your scene so this basic course may help you a lot!! Well hope to see
as many of you as possible on Wednesday night,
David

Hi All!
I am up to the gills in course work (thank you Messrs Horgan, J. and
McGuinness, D. et al) but I thought I might fire out a few ideas into the
ether that is cyberspace (are You listening Lorraine?).
There was a very well publicized scandal about a doctor in Drogheda who
removed wombs from women without consent. The first monetary award was given
to a Kathy Quilty from Wales who has lived in Drogheda most of her life. She
had given birth to a son who suffers from cerebral palsy. The doctor removed
her womb. Tragic case and I am sure we are all familiar with it and the
subsequent revelations about said "doctor".
Shortly after her award, Kathy's boyfriend murdered her ex-boyfriend outside
her apartment, and attempted to kill her also.
Kathy's story has been inside and outside every newspaper in the land.
I have met Kathy (accidentally, didn't know who she was at first; we live in
same "block") on several occasions, during each time of which she was barely
coherent.
Anyway, her pronouncement at the time of receiving the reward was that it
will be used to ease her son's life
In this current time Fathers' Rights seem to be an up and coming cause
celebre. Bob Geldof has also come out in support of the issue. I was
pleasantly surprised when I found myself talking to the father of Kathy
Quilty's child. His story has rarely been enquired and on the occasions it
has, he has refused. However, he has agreed to give DCU an interview. A
scoop for DCU?
Anyway, my (public) phone number is: 087 96 96 757.
Gavin.
