Christmas residency gathering. Welcoming back residents who first came to Birr in 2018. They just can’t get enough.

Ah I love this time of year when you have the time to dig out some nuggets from the past. This is from 'From Me to You', directed by @nicky_larkin1 for @offalylocaldevelopmentcompany. This is @shanelowrygolf's Granny talking about true love ❤️

Now that we're facing into the long evenings... it's time to share one of my favourite shots from the summer. A screen grab from a tourism promo video - shot on the Ridge of Capard, Co. Laois. Absolutely breathtaking views around the midlands and beyond... #TourismIreland #RidgeOfCapard #Laois #slievebloommountains

Finn and Cora go back to school - well, not their school but St. Brendan’s community school in Birr where they met about 40 students from various years and talked about their journey in animation so far. #offaly #irishfilm #screenireland #throwbackthursday #animationireland #irishanimation #nationaltalentacademy talented

Animators in Residence Finn and Cora visit the old courthouse in Birr. Planning has been secured to turn this into a creative court with studios for animators, filmmakers, editors, composers, artists, writers etc! Regional funding app open in November! Watch this space. #offaly #irishfilm #screenireland #filmcommunity #birr #rural #birr2020vision

Throwback to April when I was on the panel at the FilmOffaly Midlands filmmakers networking event. Joined by Jade Travers and Eibh Collins (National Talent Academy), actor Maura Foley, and Jessica Whelehan (Screen Guilds of Ireland), we talked about what it’s like working in Irish film right now and the chances for new talent.

Great to see Midlands filmmakers coming together — thanks to FilmOffaly for making it happen! @eibh_collins @filmoffaly @offalyartsoffice @maurafoley_filmmaker @nationaltalentacademies @screenguilds

Nature in all its wonder and beauty this morning as this little fella distracted me on my morning walk in @birrcastledemesne

‘Did you go upstairs last night?’ A question you’ll never hear in Birr again… as Melba's Nightclub has now closed its doors.

We’re gathering stories, memories, and moments from Melba's for our short film —good, bad, and everything in between. If Melba's shaped your story, DM Nicky or me! We’ll be running another round of interviews later this September. Let us know when suits, and we’ll make it happen.
