A KISS FOR JED WOOD<br />
Big-budget period dramas made in Ireland included the<br />
television series Camelot starring Joseph Fiennes, Eva Green<br />
and Claire Forlani which filmed for 22 weeks in Ardmore with an<br />
<strong>Irish</strong> spend of €25.5 million and Game Of Thrones for which all<br />
the post production was completed in Ireland.<br />
Other series, television movies and mini-series to film in Ireland<br />
included Neverland (Sky Movies & SyFy) starring Rhys Ifans, Bob<br />
Hoskins and Anna Friel, Sinbad (Sky 1), Treasure Island (Sky 1 &<br />
ABC) starring Eddie Izzard and the hugely popular Primeval (ITv<br />
1, ProSieben, uKTv and BBC Americas) which had an estimated<br />
<strong>Irish</strong> budget of €12.3 million and filmed for 30 weeks in Dublin<br />
and Wicklow.<br />
Other international projects which filmed in and around the<br />
Dublin region were Paolo Sorrentino’s feature film This Must Be<br />
The Place which stars Sean Penn and Frances McDormand and<br />
Rodrigo Garcia’s Albert Nobbs, which was produced by and stars<br />
Glenn Close and had an <strong>Irish</strong> spend of €4.4 million.<br />
The upturn in incoming international production is due in large<br />
part to the improvements made to the Section 481 tax incentive<br />
in 2009 which increased Ireland’s competitive position as an<br />
international film and television destination.<br />
Attracting such major international productions provides<br />
an economic boost to Ireland with increased international<br />
investment in the economy and increased employment across a<br />
huge variety of sectors. Other positive spin-off effects of these<br />
productions are promoting Ireland as a tourist location and the<br />
improvement of Ireland as an industrial location for all aspects<br />
of creative endeavors.<br />
PROMOTIOn AnD IFB TRAInInG InITIATIvES<br />
2010 saw the IFB promoting <strong>Irish</strong> film industry and <strong>Irish</strong> creative<br />
talent at international festivals such as Clermont Ferrand,<br />
Berlin, and Cannes. An <strong>Irish</strong> delegation attended the Producers<br />
Guild of America’s ‘Produced By’ conference in LA. The IFB<br />
along with Culture Ireland and the IFI coordinated a special<br />
programme of <strong>Irish</strong> film for two of the biggest film festivals in<br />
China. Meanwhile the second Give Me Direction screenwriting<br />
conference and the Real Deal at the Galway <strong>Film</strong> Fleadh were an<br />
opportunity for the IFB to engage with the <strong>Irish</strong> film industry.<br />
LA Trade Mission and the Producers Guild of America<br />
‘Produced By’ Conference<br />
The IFB and a delegation of <strong>Irish</strong> producers travelled to Los<br />
Angeles to meet uS producers and attend the second annual<br />
‘Produced By’ conference, hosted by the Producers Guild of<br />
America at Fox Studios. The IFB took at booth at the conference,<br />
under the ‘Ireland on Screen’ banner where IFB staff and <strong>Irish</strong><br />
producers promoted the section 481 tax incentive and Ireland as<br />
a film location. The aim of the <strong>Irish</strong> presence at the conference<br />
was to take advantage of the opportunity to meet with<br />
international producers and broadcasters and reinforce Ireland’s<br />
profile as a destination for film and television production<br />
ultimately attracting inward investment to Ireland.<br />
Special <strong>Irish</strong> Programme at the Shanghai International<br />
<strong>Film</strong> Festival and the Beijing International Movie Festival<br />
A special programme of contemporary and retrospective<br />
<strong>Irish</strong> features and short films was coordinated to screen<br />
at the Shanghai International <strong>Film</strong> Festival and the Beijing<br />
International Movie Festival. The programme was presented<br />
in association with the IFB and the IFI’s Reel Ireland and was<br />
supported by Culture Ireland.<br />
THE LOOKING GLASS<br />
agus ina raibh Ewan McGregor agus Michael Fassbender mar<br />
phríomhaisteoirí. Bhí buiséad Éireannach de €3.1 milliún ag an<br />
scannán agus rinneadh scannánaíocht i líon mór suíomhanna<br />
thart ar Bhaile átha Cliath agus ar Chill Mhantáin.<br />
I measc na ndrámaí mórbhuiséad stairiúla a rinneadh in Éirinn<br />
bhí na sraitheanna teilifíse Camelot ina raibh Joseph Fiennes, Eva<br />
Green agus Claire Forlani mar phríomhaisteoirí agus a rinneadh<br />
22 seachtain scannánaíochta uirthi i stiúideonna an Aird Mhóir<br />
agus a raibh caiteachas in Éirinn de €25.5 milliún uirthi agus<br />
Game Of Thrones a rinneadh an t-iarléiriú ar fad uirthi in Éirinn.<br />
I measc na sraitheanna, scannáin teilifíse agus mion-sraitheanna<br />
a rinneadh scannánaíocht orthu in Éirinn bhí Neverland (Sky<br />
Movies & SyFy) ina raibh Rhys Ifans, Bob Hoskins agus Anna Friel<br />
marc phríomhaisteoirí, Sinbad (Sky 1), Treasure Island (Sky 1 &<br />
ABC) a raibh Eddie Izzard sa phríomhpháirt ann, agus scannán a<br />
raibh an-éileamh air - Primeval (ITv 1, ProSieben, uKTv agus BBC<br />
Americas) a raibh buiséad measta in Éirinn de €12.3 milliún aige<br />
agus a rinneadh scannánaíocht air ar feadh 30 seachtain i mBaile<br />
átha Cliath agus i gCill Mhantáin.<br />
I measc na dtionscadal idirnáisiúnta eile ar rinneadh<br />
scannánaíocht orthu i gceantar Bhaile átha Cliath agus máguaird<br />
bhí an príomhscannán de chuid Paolo Sorrentini - This Must Be<br />
The Place - ina raibh Sean Penn agus Frances McDormand sna<br />
príomhpháirteanna agus Albert Nobbs le Rodrigo Garcia, a léirigh<br />
Glenn Close agus í féin ina príomhaisteoir ann agus a raibh<br />
caiteachas in Éirinn de €4.4 milliún aige.<br />
Tharla an cor chun feabhais sin i gcúrsaí léiriúchán idirnáisiúnta<br />
a thagann isteach sa tír go mórmhór de bharr na bhfeabhsuithe<br />
a rinneadh I 2009 ar an ndreasacht cánach de réir Ailt 481 a chuir<br />
le seasamh iomaíoch na hÉireann mar shuíomh cheann scríbe<br />
scannánaíochta agus scannáníocht teilifíse.<br />
Nuair a mhealltar mórléiriúcháin idirnáisiúnta den chineál<br />
sin neartaíonn sé an tír seo leis an infheistíocht mhéadaithe i<br />
ngeilleagar na hÉireann agus méadú sa bhfostaíocht ar fud an<br />
iliomad earnálacha. I measc na n-iarmhairtí dearfacha eile a<br />
bhaineann leis na léiriúcháin sin tá cur chun cinn na hÉireann<br />
mar láthair turasóireachta agus feabhsú na hÉireann mar<br />
shuíomh tionsclaíoch do dhíchill chruthaitheacha de gach cineál.<br />

OILIÚ<strong>nA</strong> BSÉ/IFB<br />
Le linn 2010 leanBSÉ/IFB ar aghaidh ag cur tionscal na scannán<br />
in Éirinn agus talann cruthaitheach Éireannach chun cinn ag<br />
féiltí idirnáisiúnta ar nós Clermont Ferrand, Berlin agus Cannes.<br />
D’fhreastal toscaireacht Éireannach ar an gcomhdháil ‘Produced<br />
By’ a bhí eagraithe ag an Producers Guild of America i Los<br />
Angeles. Rinne BSÉ/IFB i dteannta Culture Ireland agus an IFI<br />
comhordú ar chlár speisialta scannán Éireannach le haghaidh<br />
dhá cheann de na féiltí scannán is mó sa tSín. Bhí deis chomh<br />
maith ag an IFB dul I dteagmháil le tionscal na scannán in Éirinn<br />
ag an dara chomhdháil scríbhneoireacht scáileáin ‘Give Me<br />
Direction’ agus ag an ‘Real Deal’ ag Fleadh Scannán na Gaillimhe.<br />
Misean Trádála chuig LA agus an Chomhdháil ‘Produced<br />
By’ de chuid an Producers Guild of America<br />
Thug BSÉ/IFB agus toscaireacht léiritheoirí Éireannacha cuairt ar<br />
Los Angeles chun bualadh le léiritheoirí ó na Stáit Aontaithe agus<br />
chun freastal ar an dara chomhdháil ‘Produced By’ ag a raibh<br />
an Producers Guild of America mar óstaigh agus a tionóladh ag<br />
Stiúideonna Fox. Thóg BSÉ/IFB both ag an gcomhdháil, faoi bhrat<br />
‘Ireland on Screen’ áit a raibh an dreasacht cánach, Alt 481, agus<br />
Éire mar shuíomh scannánaíochta á gcur chun cinn ag foireann<br />
BSÉ/IFB agus ag léiritheoirí Éireannacha. Bhí sé mar aidhm ag na<br />
hÉireannaigh a bhí i láthair a deis a thapú le bualadh le léiritheoirí<br />
agus le craoltóirí idirnáisiúnta agus próifíl na hÉireann a neartú<br />
mar cheann scríbe chun scannáin agus cláir teilifíse a léiriú.<br />
Clár Speisialta Éireannach ag Féile Idirnáisiúnta Scannán<br />
Shanghai agus ag Féile Idirnáisiúnta Scannán Beijing<br />
Comhordaíodh clár speisialta príomhscannán agus gearrscannán<br />
