Three Griffith Film & TV Graduates' Films Featured in Virgin Media Dublin International Film Festival First Frame Event
The First Frame Event honours film students and graduates from across Ireland.
We are delighted to report that recent Film & TV graduates Ryan Buckley, Bill O’Toole and Hector H. Romero each had their debut short film featured at this year's Virgin Media Dublin International Film Festival First Frame Event.
A staple of the annual festival, First Frame is a film student initiative and competition, whereby film students and graduates across Ireland submit short films to be critiqued by a panel of industry leaders.
