2013 is proving to be a busy year already with several new ventures happening.

One of these ventures is working with Visitor TV in producing local advertising for television screens in the hotels of the mid-west of Ireland and beyond.

“Visitor TV’s  aim is to enhance every hotel guest’s break away, ensuring they get maximum return from the hotel and local attractions.

A feature video about the local area is shown 24/07 on the Guest Channel, ensuring that visitors enjoy the local attractions & shop till they drop. The video helps them see all a region has to offer and more importantly give them a reason to return.”

For more information on Visitor TV and how to advertise then check out their website:

More soon.

After nearly a year already since I last worked with Simon, we were filming again this week at the UL Arena in Limerick City.

Simon appeared on TV3’s Ireland AM on 19th july with his trainer Jason Kenny of Forever Fit Promotions, where a series of shots of him training that we shot were played back in studio.

Last years project was all about the Flexifoot ferrel product but this year sees Simon promoting ‘out on a limb’ and just from filming its hard not to be inspired by the guy.

Here is the full Ireland AM (TV3) spot.

National Day of Commemoration 2012

For the second year running I had the pleasure in recording Limerick’s National Day of Commemoration for our past service men and women. Joining me at City Hall on camera was Ben O’Sullivan, where we captured the officiating representatives of the faith traditions and members of Limerick City Council and of the Oireachtas.

After each representative gave a prayer the new mayor Cllr. Jerry McLoughlin laid a wreath at the plaque on behalf of the people of Ireland.

This ceremony also took place across other cities such as Galway, Cork, Waterford, Killkenny and Dublin.

The final DVD was edited for City Hall’s records and commissioned by Futureama Productions.

In honour of all those Irishmen and Irishwomen who died in past wars or on service with the United Nations.

(Inscription on National Day of Commemoration Plaque, City Hall, Merchant’s Quay, Limerick.)
