RTE Red Radar Filming

Posted by Jennie on Tuesday, May 10, 2011 · Leave a Comment

So Jennie, Sarah and Aideen ambled into RTE yesterday to film some short videos for the recently launched RED Radar website. The site is aimed at the youf’ audience and taps into all that is alternative in Irish music, style and fashion. Rather.

We each did a piece about what we were wearing (clothes, should you ask) and then we did some pieces about Mood Boards. MOOD BOARDS? What in God’s Blazes is that? Well let me tell you – it’s basically a chaotic ripping of pictures from magazines and whatever rags you have about the house in an attempt to focus your thoughts on upcoming styles and trends. If you’ve yet to indulge, get in there quicksmart. It’s very therapeutic in an arts-n-crafts kinda way. Rip, rip, rip, stick, stick, stick, think, think, think, buy, buy, buy.

So, we mooched in with our mood boards (Jennie: Neon, quelle suprise, Sarah: Girly Colour Pop, Aideen: Print Colour Pop), a disproportionate amount of bags, some very cheesy grinning and a thirst to see some RTE celebrities. The gang at RED Radar were super-nice and very efficient, and even let us take photos of the RED LIGHT outside the studio room.

To land us safely from the heady heights of fame, we decided to get changed in the disabled toilet. Together. See - it ain’t all glamour. And we didn’t manage to catch any ‘slebs, despite perching ourselves in a prime vantage point in the infamous RTE canteen. Tubs: we were there, why didn’t you come???
