Darklight Festival



This year's Darklight Festival is a four-day event celebrating cutting-edge film, animation, art and technology, offering an eclectic series of screenings, seminars, workshops and special events at a series of Dublin venues.

Especially interesting for those working in online (and offline) advertising/marketing is the DECODING ONLINE FILMMAKING: FROM WEBISODES TO VIRAL MARKETING symposium.

Details: Friday 27th June (The Light House cinema, Smithfield), 4 pm

“Online filmmaking is continually changing, with recent successful projects such as Sofia's Diary and KateModern proving major hits; at the other end of the spectrum we have online viral marketing, a phenomenon that (according to Wikepedia) 'facilitates and encourages people to pass along a marketing message voluntarily.' It's the holy grail for twenty-first century media.
Chaired by Steve McCormack (Wildwave), the panel will seek to discuss what works - and what doesn't - in the online filmmaking arena, and what's coming next... Panelists include Sofia's Diary producer Triona Campbell, Bebo Ireland Head Of Sales Philip McCartney, Irish internet phenomenon Sophie Merry (Bandy Toaster).”
