4 Chapter 4

The organizer of this short film competition, the Irish Film Association.The judges are looking at the submissions and voting for the short films that will be considered for the competition.

Apparently, the quality of the short films submitted has caused headaches for the judges of the jury.

The quality of the ups and downs caused some short films to be cut off by the judges of the jury because they were too mediocre.

Some short films are just a storyboard, and they are watched with relish because they are extremely good.

At this time, Rosen, one of the judges in charge of screening the shortlisted works, was sitting in front of the screen and watching them one by one.

He watches about 10 short films every day, and then scores them in turn and before watching a work participating in the competition unit, he has been given instructions to browse the resume of the participating director but he only opens resumes of those he likes so he first started to play the short film. He pushed the play button.

the screen started to light up.

The style of the first lens is somewhat similar to the European long lens.

But what caught Rosen's eyes was that the color scheme of this short film was very...exciting.

Pink blue pink green, milk red milk yellow.

The color matching is extremely harmonious.

Not only that, but it can be seen that the director has worked hard on the color correction in the later stage.

At least the picture has a paint texture, it should be shot on film.

This is very strange. He has seen hundreds of entries, and very few of them were shot on film. In this era of digital shooting for all people, few people insist on shooting on film, and Kodak film is about to go out of business.

Yes, this attitude of sticking to film shooting is very worthy of recognition but just this is not enough. Rosen continued to see the short film.

There are so many people coming and going in the picture, the background is constantly changing, and the space is narrow to wide and then narrow the director had chosen the hard work to show off her talent to control the crowd of extra and also her staging is quite good too.

The music is good too the three long shorts used to make the whole short film show that the director has much more talent. He thought after seeing this that this was a newcomer who had made this short film. He selected this short film for the next round for judges.

In the end, the judges held a seminar to discuss which ones could be finally selected for the competition unit for those works with high scores. For these high-scoring works, of course, all of them have a good degree of completion but the most eye-catching one is undoubtedly Eva's "The Magnificent Dublin".

What surprised the judges most was not the long shot. After all, these judges are all senior filmmakers from the Irish Film Association, and they would not be scared to vomit blood by a five-minute long shot. What surprised them was how a 20-year-old girl without much previous experience made it?

"I think it's a certainty that "The Magnificent Dublin" will be shortlisted. There is basically nothing that can be questioned, what do you say?"

"It's true. When Rosen showed me this film, I thought it was very good."

"After reading that girl's resume, I feel a little more interesting."

"A very good seedling, I agree with her being shortlisted."

Finally, after a round of discussions, Eva's short film was shortlisted for competition along with some other excellent short films.

All works shortlisted for competition will be displayed on the official website of the Irish Film Institute.

Finally, a jury composed of film professionals from all walks of life will vote to select the final first place winner and other award winners. Soon, the works of this batch of competition units were listed on the official website. The director's name was taken off from their work for impartial treatment.

The festival people came there and saw the short film and voted for the short film they liked. There were many good short films like one documentary of 30 minutes but the one that stood out the most was probably The Magnificent Dublin

Few days later

The short film competition held by the Irish Film Association this time can be regarded as a talent reserve for the Irish film industry every year. Although it was not such a hot and sensational game, even many ordinary people would not pay attention to it but general filmmakers and film-related media will still pay attention.

When Eva came to the scene. The people on the scene are already full. Eva looked around and found many of the finalists are there whose film are very good.
