Hopefully we'll get the chance to prove you wrong.

Ah well - I was fairly pleased with our project but there you go. Onwards and upwards.
which one was yours again?Perhaps students are just a no go?
normally this would be true. Alot of funding schemes would exclude students.
But as I said earlier Storyland has the worse application form I have seen for such a project, feck all information on what can and cannot be accepted etc.
quite frankly it probably means they went in wanting something specific and if you weren't even close they just drop you.
if the roaring twenties crowd get funded again I am leaving the country and never coming back (which I was doing anyway
) 0 -

We didn't upload our pitch onto Youtube. You have my word though it was the only finest Storyland submission I have ever made.
I would imagine that the standard of entries was very high though. I've talked with some very established directors that were putting in pitches this year. It will be very interesting to see who has made the final 12.
(I need to stop saying 'very' so much)0 -

Cheers buddy! Meh what you gonna do. We'll try and find someone else to fund it. 0 -

They got shortlisted!
Along with three other teams Ive heard of so far. Judging by their entries the standard was kinda high.
Not surprised about the ones that didn't make it.0 -

ahh ok..took a quick look. I'd mumble that my tastes and notion of what makes online drama unique seem to be very different from RTE's as two of the shortlisted pieces they have picked I personnally would not have picked. Though to be fair, Silent walls could be good, I just thought the pitch was a bit heavy personnally.
I think for the sake of peace I wont comment with my filmmakers account over there considering my dislike of the mariana entry 0 -

Havnt seen or heard anything about this, but its from the admin of filmmakersnetwork.ie who i've met and seems to be a bloke who has his head screwed on right. Bit of a delictessan vibe from the quote?DAILY STRIFE
From Poca Productions “All Glenn wants to do it change his life and leave his wife but daily strife keeps getting in the way.”
heard nothing about this, sounds like a straight forward enough premise.MARIANA
From Eekreb Films Ltd “Mariana is a normal, happy, ambitious woman. She’s also a 400 year old vampire.”
f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck
at least it'll look prettySTAR FECK!
From Maccana Teoranta “Feck it into Space. A Cavan Space crew (one half Monaghan) and a three foot alien called Romtox have a cargo to feck into Space…”
Liked the pitch so I'm happy it made it and look forward to seeing it. Though the blurb seems a bit different to the pitch.WE OWN THE STREETS
From Chutney Films Ltd “There comes a time when you have to stop running.”
heard nothing of this, seems a bit more *aggressive* then the rest which seem to be black comedy's of sorts.ZOMBIE BASHERS
From Tailored Films Ltd “Don’t get eaten; our prices can’t be beaten!”
Seems this was the piece that probably knocked bugbusters out maybe?
Cant complain about the choices much myself I only seen the pitches of two of them and the only one bugging me about getting in is mariana.
looking forward to the first round.
EDIT:
oh the promos are up on the website. One min as I watch them
EDIT EDIT
Ok took a look at them and yeah working from the bottom up.
Zombie Bashers clearly stole bugbusters thunder and is probably very much the reason they didnt get shortlisted. The promo was good enough, the audio was pretty weak, the actors dont seem to giving it much, but it was very well paced and had a good look to it.
We Own The Streets sounds very serious from its title and blurb but its pretty much on par with the rest of them on being a comedy, the promo was fine, though there is probably only so far you can take the really tame free running so hopefully they got plans to do more with it.
Star Feck and Mariana we already know
I was really surprised with Daily Strife, it looks like it could be quite good. the exposure was a bit off but with a budget it could be cleaned up and working quite nicely.
Butchers was a bit disapointing a series of puns didnt really catch me and killed my thinking of something a bit more bizarre...0 -

If she was a 400 year old vampire, then she wouldn't be normal, would she?0 -
