Shirley Weir

Since founding Stitch Films in 2006, Shirley has consistently sought out projects that push the boundaries of the short film. In addition to being a working editor, director, and graphic-designer, Shirley has produced a number of short films including ‘The Beekeeper’s Son’ (2007, Jamie Hannigan), ‘Pump Action’ (2007, Frank Reid), and Two Point Five Billion (2008, Jamie Hannigan), all of which have garnered considerable acclaim on the international festival circuit.

Frank Reid

Frank graduated from the Dun Laoghaire Institute of Art, Design and Technology in 2003 and has been working ever since as a freelance director, writer, producer and editor. Heʼs worked on a variety of projects ranging from documentaries, music videos, corporates, internet virals and short films – his Short Short ʻPump Actionʼ (funded by the Irish Film Board) has already played at over twenty festivals around the world ranging from Festroia Portugal to Emden, Germany (where it was the only Irish short playing in competition).

Jamie Hannigan

Jamie graduated from Journalism at the Dublin Institute of Technology in 2001, and has written for a number of publications (including Film Ireland and Mongrel magazine, for which he contributed a regular film column) but has focussed mainly on film. His work includes the award-winning animation ‘The Boy With The Ever-Open Jaw’ and ‘The Beekeeper’s Son’ which had its international debut at this year’s Rotterdam Film Festival. Most recently, he completed work on ʻTwo Point Five Billionʼ, which premiered at this yearʼs Cork Film Festival.
