TALENT SHOW AUDITIONS!

guys get ready for the talent show!! auditions starting this friday at 1pm meet at the assembly hall!

AUDIO-VISUAL Group starting up.

The group is aimed at both introducing students to the world of audio-visual technology and broadening students pre-existing knowledge. It is open to anybody but might especially intrest anyonemotivated to pursue a career in the Audio-Visual Arts. There is often little or no opportunity to learn the basics of Film, Sound Engineering, Video journalism or Photography until third level.
This group offers students who are genuinely intrested with an outlet to explore media as a form of communication. If the idea grabs you, then watch out for announcements, keep an eyes on the Theatre Club notice board and if you ate simply curious then come along to the Theatre Club meeting on Mondays at 1.20pm in Room 94 and talk to Mr. Burke about it.

Anything creative is often very easy but requires practice and a platform for experimentation. It’s all about using you head, having a go and waiting to see what happens. It’s great fun too!
