Posted: December 7, 2023 in Craft & Craftsmanship, Education, Film, Film FestivalTags: catalyst film festival, creative broadcast and film production, Dept Digital Arts & Media, LSAD, TUS
The award is open to all students enrolled in a film programme and films can’t be any longer than twenty minutes, including titles and credits and must be submitted through FilmFreeway.
The winning film will be screened at the Catalyst International Film Festival and will receive €1,000 sponsored by the TUS Digital Arts and Media Department in Limerick.
Catalyst International Film Festival National Student Short Film Award is designed to recognise and celebrate the work of emerging student filmmakers from across the country.
Catalyst International Film Festival is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in the film industry, and this award is a key part of that mission.
The festival is keen to engage with emerging filmmakers, ‘new’ rather than inevitably ‘young’, in order to broaden the horizons of potential future filmmakers and audience members.
All Catalyst Award Judges comprise esteemed professionals and experts from the film industry, guaranteeing that the work of the finalists will be showcased to pertinent industry figures, thereby presenting an exceptional opportunity for the winning filmmaker.
Previous Catalyst Awards judges include Colm Bairéad, Rebecca Daly, Frank Berry, Ursula Rani Sarma, Paddy Breathnach and Nell Roddy.
“We are thrilled to launch this new Award in association with TUS” said Dr Susan Liddy, Director of Catalyst.
“We believe that talent is plentiful but opportunities can be limited, and we are committed to supporting emerging filmmakers from all backgrounds. We look forward to seeing the submissions and celebrating the work of the next generation of filmmakers.”
James Greenslade, Head of Department, Digital Arts and Media, TUS, added: “Empowering emerging filmmakers to share their diverse narratives and voices is not just a celebration of their talent but a pivotal step in shaping a more inclusive and expansive film landscape. Through this platform, we embrace the power of film to inspire, connect, and pave the way for the future of storytelling.”
Entries will be accepted up until February 6, 2024 and the festival will be on from April 18-20, 2024.

An in-depth analysis of the Mid-West’s current film production capacity
Posted: November 21, 2023 in Craft & Craftsmanship, Education, FilmTags: Engine, Film In Limerick, LCETB, LSAD, Mid-West, Olsberg SPI, TUS, UL
“The Mid-West of Ireland has massive potential as a major Film/TV production location. In a few shorts years, the region has made great strides in developing the sector, with a rapidly growing crew-base, the biggest film studio in Ireland, new companies launched and numerous features and TV-series choosing to film in Limerick, Tipperary and Clare. Our ambition for the sector is huge, and it’s great to be working with the team at Olsberg SPI and local stakeholders to carry out an in-depth analysis of the Mid-West’s current film production capacity. The resulting report will look at our strengths, weaknesses, constraints and capacity gaps in key areas of production and skills, as well as the opportunities for future growth.
Thank you to our funders and champions for their continued support and vision to develop the sector here, and especially to our report funders; Limerick and Clare Education and Training Board, Midwest Regional Skills Forum, and the Local Enterprise Offices in Clare, Tipperary and in Limerick. And to all those who have taken part in the survey, consultations and roundtable discussions to date. We are looking forward to 2024, the launch of the new report and to many more productions and successes in the region.”
Paul C. Ryan, Film Commissioner/Regional Film Manager, Mid-West Region, Ireland.
