 GASP!, is a creative industry conference in Limerick on the 30th and 31st March. One of their events is Student Salon du Chat, and is running Friday 31st March from 10:30am – 12:00pm in Limerick city.

The GASP! Salon du Chat is specifically aimed at students studying creative and digital focussed courses such as design, media, UX, animation, web development, film production and broadcasting.

Students will sit at tables in groups of 3 to 5 and have the opportunity to chat in an informal and comfortable setting with senior professionals who have extensive experience and knowledge of the creative industries. The Salon du Chat menu is the ideal conversation starter for getting chatting to the creative professionals about their experiences in the industry, their recommendations for graduates, job opportunities, the work environment and more. Salon du Chat offers chat, without the chit. It’s networking but in a comfortable, curated and inspiring setting. 

The Industry professionals joining us include Andrew Warner, Director of Design at MaverickSarah Sherlock, Senior Art Director, Events and Campaigns, at SalesforceVictoria Brunetta, Senior Graphic Designer at PiquantIain Slater, Founder and Managing Director of SlaterGillian Horan, CEO and Founder of The PuddingRobin Foley, Founder and Creative Director of Hurrah Hurrah and Rachael PowerFilm in Limerick Crew Academy Manager – we will be announcing more professionals soon!

Beginning in mid January, a new In-House Production Unit, Film CEL, (Film Craftsmanship Excellence and Learning) will launch. This new addition to the Creative Broadcast and Film Production programme at LSAD, will provide a Media Work Practice structure around craftsmanship of content creation.

Through Film CEL students will have a structure of practice under the guidance and mentorship of a Coordinator. This

production section will be run jointly between academic staff and students with goals to provide professional film/broadcast and

video production content for LSAD/TUS content channels and where appropriate, Internal & external industry companies and

local Community Social, Arts and Cultural organisations on a not-for profit basis. Students working on an IPU production will be

managed by the coordinator, who would also work on and oversee productions. The aim of this IPU is to promote professional

craftsmanship culture within the discipline with the students while also providing opportunities for work placement with

professionals and discipline aligned organisations. Both work practice and skills will need to be demonstrated while meeting

learning outcomes for various production and post-production roles across a variety of forms and media, where appropriate.

In the coming weeks and months there will be updates on the progress as well as any news and events covered by the team.

Film CEL can be found on Instagram (lsad_filmcel) and Twitter @FILM_CEL
