Taken on as a commercials director by Micky O'Neill of Spot On Productions

Excellent news! This from MICKY O'NEILL, the producer of "The Patrol". Micky runs Spoton Film and Television and has over twenty years experience as a producer and director. The email was sent to advertising agencies: "Following our commitment to bring new directing talent into the commercials arena, I'm very pleased to introduce the latest addition to the director's pool - Allan Gildea. Many of you may know Allan as an actor but he is actually a multi-talented individual: writing, directing, animating and editing being amongst those talents. I produced his short film, The Patrol, for him last year and was extremely impressed at the dedication and time he put onto the project let alone his ability to motivate the cast and crew and of course the final cut. Allan is also one of those rare director's who actually likes to produce his own storyboards. Below is an example of a trailer he wrote and directed for the BBC's election coverage. If you would to see more of his work in films, music promos and acting follow this link - myspace.com/allangildea OR www.virb.com/allangildea If you have any scripts you'd like Allan to take a look at and put in a speculative treatment, don't hesitate to call.
