Presented by one of Ireland's leading commercial production companies, Antidote, this eye-opening schedule of talks with industry professionals who have successfully worked across both advertising and filmmaking will consist of three panels.

The first panel will focus on why and how creative talent in commercial production transitions into filmmaking. We have a very exciting line-up of industry professionals (to be announced) whose work spans both fields and will give an in-depth look at the crossover between the two.

The second panel will hear from the producers and directors of Antidote discussing the company's 20 years of making TV commercials and films. Participants will include Andrew Freedman (Founding Partner/Producer), Ken Wardrop (Founding Partner/Director) and Paula Stewart (Antidote Producer).

The final panel will be an in-conversation with a special guest yet to be announced. Sign up to our mailing list at www.diff.ie to get programme announcements as they happen. We invite all attendees to join us for a round of specialty cocktails as we wrap up and reflect on the day's conversations.
