RTÉ are set to screen an advert created by DCU School of Communications students in 50 prime time TV slots over the coming week.  The ads, due to go live from Thursday 9th May at 5:23pm (RTÉ1) and 9:19pm (RTÉ2), will promote the Guth Gafa International Documentary Festival which runs from May 16th to 20th in Malin, Donegal. 

Janelle Kelly, Katie Liston, Daniel Power and Declan Hall, all second year BSc Multimedia students created the ad as a project for their Post Production Class at the suggestion of their lecturer, Davorka Naletilic, herself a freelance multimedia producer.  Promos from four more groups in the class will also feature on the big screen during Guth Gafa’s Screen on the Green, a late-night, open-air movie screening sponsored by The LA Irish Film Festival and Invest NI.
