Seeking Presenters & Participants For A New Lifestyle Television Series For TG4
February 7, 2013
Stirling Film & TV Productions Ltd are currently producing a national lifestyle television series for TG4- based on the idea of turning your unwanted items into profitable goodies. What better way to welcome in 2013 than to say goodbye to all the junk and hello to a better bank balance and a bit of head and home space!
The concept is that participants gather together items from their home, be it clothing, antiques or gadgets, and with some expert advice from our presenters they attempt to turn these items into cash by selling them online through eBay or other online auctions, as well as local fairs or car boot sales. They will each have a target or upcoming occasion or event which they want to raise money for. Some items may have sentimental value and be hard to part with, but these may be the items that make the most money.
We will be holding screen tests for Irish speaking presenters, as well as experts in the field of selling online or at fairs. New talent is welcomed, experience not essential.
If interested please send a self-recorded audition clip of a scenario to include the following in Irish:
– A PTC (Piece to camera) introducing the programme
– A brief interview with a pretend participant
– A brief clip in which you assess a prop i.e. item to be sold. Is it of any worth and might it do well in an online auction?
Please send video applications, along with a CV to pol@stirlingtelevision.co.uk no later than Monday 11th February
Or to:
Pól Penrose
137 University Street,
Belfast,
BT7 1HP
We are also seeking Irish-speaking participants for 6 x programmes to be filmed all over Ireland during the spring and summer months. So if you and your family or colleagues would like to earn some extra cash from your unwanted items for an upcoming event or activity- e.g. a wedding, your own wedding, a holiday, home refurbishment, new equipment, or just want to make some extra room in your house, please fill in the form at http://www.stirlingtelevision.co.uk/news/seeking-presenters-participants-for-a-new-lifestyle-television-series-for-tg4.html to submit your application!
Deadline for applications for participants is Friday 22nd February 2013
Stirling TV Productions has received funding from the ILBF and TG4 for the production.
