This is the third Converge event. The last one was especially great, but the one on the 1st and 2nd of March is going to be spectacular, despite my appearance there! I am giving the keynote address in the morning, about 4 house after I land back from Australia…so as many Venti extra cappuccinos as possible please!! I will be hanging around as long as possible on the day until my body gives up…too many interesting things to go to!
It’s split into two days. Day one, which I will be at costs 55 quid and can be booked here. Day two, the workshops is 45 quid, again booked on the same page.
There really is an awesome line of people speaking. Film director Richard Jobson, the awesome Danfung Dennis, the far too good looking and talented Kevin Shaninian and many more. Kevin along with the awesome Joe Simon will be doing an event filmmakers 3 day workshop in London from the 2nd of March, VERY limited space. If there was space for me I would go!
Danfung will be doing an exclusive private screening of what is sure to be an amazing film, “Hell and Back again”, shot in Afghanistan with the Canon 5D…it really will be something else…

Thinking about traveling from Dublin for this on the same day. Would Gatwick or Stansted be the better choice for connections to the BFI?
Sounds Great!
Regarding the Workshops: I don’t currently own a laptop, would the workshops rely on people bringing in their own equipment i.e. laptop w/fcp? Is a pen and pad gonna be sufficient to jot down all these tips, especially the FCP workshops?! Will there be decent print outs and the like?! Think i’m answering my own question here but was wondering if you had any additional info. Perhaps I can get hold of one from work in time if all else fails.
cheers

i think the workshops are quite short to just make notes and bring an audio recorder!
