WORK | FIN Festival 2019
Heading into the screening of our Brilliansea Documentary: ‘Her Business Our Story Your Calling’
Having ‘Her Business Our Story Your Calling’ accepted into the FIN ‘Atlantic International Film Festival’ was an honour. I am so proud to have had the opportunity to work with Claire Fraser on this short documentary and work towards creating it into a feature.
Although I have written and produced theatrical plays, written and collaborated on various screen pieces, this is my first screening of a produced work of film.
The Festival was packed with various opportunities and events as a film maker to enjoy and be inspired by. The opening film Murmur was a perfect way to celebrate locally made films and various colleges. Murmur is a perfect example that quality is better than quantity. It had a quiet confidence about itself and was made with excellence.
I found the Mussel Bar reception hosted by WIFT-AT a time of solidarity and connections with my peers. I am looking forward to seeing more of them both at events and also by design.
FIN gave me the opportunity to see my local film and television community on a broader scale, find solidarity and get inspired for what can be possible.
