Young Writers (youth project/secondary school age) in the South and East Cork areas were invited to submit their short stories to the First Cut! Film Project with a view to the winning stories being adapted for the screen at the First Cut! Summer Film Week workshop this June.
The two stories selected are:
She Was Just A Girl (Robert McCarthy)
Henry and Zooey (Kieran Doyle)
The runners-up are:
Swap (Michael Coleman)
The Intruder (Shay Buckley)
Harsh Times (Clodagh Cotter)
Formerly known as the East Cork Youth Film Project, First Cut! began in 2006. An intiative of South East Cork Area Development (SECAD) and Cork County Council Arts Office, this project is run and facilitated by Cork Film Centre (CFC). Its goal is to give young people access to training in digital filmmaking. For more information, visit the First Cut! blog.
This short story competition is the first writer-oriented project that First Cut! has initiated.
