International Executive

welcome Welcome to the 8th Cinemagic Film and Television Festival for Young People. I am delighted to announce that Cinemagic will be returning to Dublin from the 8th – 16th May 2015. We have programmed another action packed festival full of fantastic film screenings including special premieres, international feature films, documentaries, shorts, foreign language films and education screenings. Throughout the festival Cinemagic will also be offering young people the opportunity to take part in practical events including industry workshops, exciting ‘Talent Lab’ masterclasses and our extensive education programme for schools. I also want to wish the festival ‘CineSeeker’ jury lots of luck when judging the films in this year’s ‘official’ competition. 2015 promises to be an extremely exciting year for Cinemagic as we get ready to premiere our first feature film ‘A Christmas Star’ that was shot last November and December. This truly unique project engaged with thousands of young people

through pre-production, filming and post-production. The young cast and production crew received expert training and guidance from some of the film industry’s biggest names and the finished movie promises to be something very special! The world premiere of ‘A Christmas Star’ will take place in Belfast in November 2015 and will preview in cinemas throughout Ireland at the end of the year! I would like to thank each of our funders and loyal industry professionals who have put their trust in us and remain committed to providing amazing opportunities for young people. And to you, the audience, thank you for supporting and being part of what is now the largest Film and Television Festival for Young People in the UK and Ireland. I look forward to seeing you at the festival. Joan Burney Keatings MBE Chief Executive, Cinemagic

A Message of Support The Department of Education and Skills is delighted to continue its support for the Dublin Cinemagic Film and Television Festival in 2015. Since 2008, the festival has provided a unique opportunity for young people to gain an insight into the worlds of film-making and to meet with industry professionals through participation in master classes and workshops. Cinemagic initiatives such as the cross-border jury, young film critic competitions and cross border film camp provide young people from both jurisdictions on the island of Ireland with unique opportunities to engage and interact with their peers from across the island and to share their interest and opinions on films produced specifically for children’s audiences.

Here at the Industry Trust for IP Awareness we believe when you learn about all of the hard work (graft) that goes into the creation of a film - you get more of a handle on why it’s not yours to take for free. Plus you can better understand why the real life people who invested their time, skills and money in making the film deserve to get paid for their work. When we all understand the importance of supporting the film industry and paying for the films we watch then there will be more films made to enjoy in the future. Tues 12 May 10.30am – 1.00pm Cineworld Suitable for 6 – 11 year olds €4.00 per pupil

Young Consultants 2015

Cinemagic has launched its annual call for young film enthusiasts to take on the role of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;film consultantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and help select a series of films for the Cinemagic International Film and Television Festival for Young People that will take place in Belfast this autumn. The young consultants will work with the Cinemagic team to help steer the choice of films for the Festival, as they watch and critique films from around the globe! If you are a budding film critic who would enjoy the opportunity to spend time working with Cinemagic, this is a fantastic opportunity to meet other like-minded young people and have fun deciding the content of the largest film festival for young people in the UK and Ireland. The young people who become film consultants will also contribute ideas for the festival programme and help with the promotion of festival events. Cinemagic is dedicated to providing new and exciting opportunities for young people with all interests in film, whether they want to enjoy new films or take their interest further and explore career options in the film industry. The young film consultants will watch and review international films guided by the Cinemagic team and there will be lots of opportunities for discussion and debate.
