    Episode Three: Film and Funding

    Episode Two: Film and Funding Alfonso Films Claire Byrne, Jo Halpin and Emma Wall form a filmmaking trio with collective passion and enthusiasm for all facets of Irish film. Their process is particularly interesting as their positions vary from production to production; swapping from writer to producer to director. With early beginnings borne from the Filmbase training course, Alfonso have worked on various shorts, screened at festivals and events throughout Ireland. Their debut short film 'Spent' appeared in the Women in Television and Film Ireland Showcase in 2018, and they have been selected as Bumble's five shorts for the first ever Female Film Force. I'm sure you'll agree that Alfonso are forces to be reckoned with!
