Oscar-nominated ‘Run & Jump’ director Steph Green will feature on the OFFline Film Festival’s short film script workshop at this year’s Galway Film Fleadh - alongside Palm Springs ShortFest director Kathleen McInnis and award-winning screenwriter & playwright Eugene O’Brien.
The script workshop will take place from 11am-1pm on Saturday 13th July at the Studio Space (Courthouse Square) of Galway’s Town Hall Theatre, during which time filmmakers will be given expert advice on how to prepare their scripts for production.
Steph Green’s short ‘New Boy’ received an Oscar nomination in the best live action short category in 2009 and her feature debut ‘Run & Jump’ will have its Irish premiere at Galway on the night of the workshop.
Kathleen McInnis is the film curator and director of industry programming at Palm Springs ShortFest, and teaches film festival strategies at NYU Tisch/Asia (Singapore) and UCLA School of Television, Film and Theatre.
Eugene O’Brien wrote the screenplay to RTE’s IFTA-nominated ‘Pure Mule’; worked as writer on ‘The Food Guide to Love’; and is also an actor, best known for his play ‘Eden’ which was adapted for RTE and won an IFTA for lead actress Eileen Walsh in 2009.
