SYNOPSIS

A short film depicting Tom Conroy, a talented, award-winning Irish dancer who highlights how his passion of becoming an Irish dancer has made him a successful teacher in the arts and how he intends to use this passion to help teach dancing to children.

  • The first documentary short film I’ve made with a group of students in university and the first short film I directed at university.
  • Established a relationship with the interviewee and negotiated locations and dates for his class to perform.
  • Made contracts and agreements with the interviewee and since we had dance students, we had to get consent from all parents.
  • This was filmed during the second set of Covid restrictions and these had to be taken into account to manage locations, the dancers and safety of the crew.
