The Meteor Press Ball in the Strand Hotel on Saturday night was an enjoyable evening. Applebox Media had the pleasure of sharing a table with Southern Advertising . The night was in aid of Barnardos, with participants and sponsors giving generously to the chosen charity.

Last week saw Applebox Media film another scene for the short film Scumbag Millionaire starring Francis Ryan. This scene was filmed on location at the Carpark on Lower Gearldgriffin Street, in Limerick. Penned by Francis and yours truly, the story tells of one mans struggle to get to the top of a gang but quickly realises that its getting out is the goal when alot of money comes into play.
In this scene Francis is met by his friend Will, played by Sean Flynn, who provides him with transport to get around and to avoid being seen.
This production is due to be complete by January 2011.
To Arthur and to me. Last year it was Sept 24th for the 250th birthday. This year it’s 23rd. But arthur and me know it’s really the 24th!!!!!
An oral hearing into plans for a major redevelopment of RTE’s Donnybrook campus has heard that the realisation of ‘Project 2025’ is necessary if the national broadcaster is to meet the demands of the digital and high-definition age.
Under the proposal, all of RTÉ’s services would be housed in one purpose-built complex, which would include five new TV studios and a public plaza.

Hi all, Well just back lecturing at LIT and low and behold we have Avid Media Composer 5 installed on all the suites. We have been running tests today to see if the intergration works with the Avid Unity server and so far there have been only a few small path issues which have been sorted.
The interface is pretty much the same folks, Avid is a bit like Porsche in that they tend to leave the look of the product the same but only tweak the performance and price as it suits them.
With the positioning of the tools on the left of the timeline and a few graphical changes MC5 seems to have pretty much the same build performance as its previous version.
MC5 does have a few new tricks however… this is taken from the http://www.avid.com website. It make interesting reading. Enjoy.
You can read about these new features in more detail here:
