Clap ‘n Load Studios

Clap ‘n Load Studios’ goal is to bring together some of Ireland’s best creative talent in the production of standout scripted and unscripted film and TV productions, as well as facilitate and provide high-quality production services to a variety of projects both domestically and internationally.

Our belief is that proper planning and preparation can ensure the creation of a strong, engaging production, and we feel that this sentiment has been clearly demonstrated through the creation of our numerous film projects to date, all of which have received great acclaim and commendation both nationally and internationally.

Clap 'n Load Studios has produced a wide variety of projects ranging from period dramas, to science-fiction, to documentaries, and has had films presented nationally at festivals such as Fastnet Film Festival, and internationally from Chicago to Bucharest and beyond. Clap 'n Load Studios has worked both on short films and features alike, with their most endeavour being the production of "Life on Mercury"; an international drama co-production wherein Clap 'n Load Studios operated as the primary producer of the work. The company has previously received funding from various public funding bodies including The Galway Film Centre and The National Arts Council. Clap 'n Load Studios has also worked in the commercial space with company's like Vision Ireland (formerly the NCBI); a collaboration that resonates with the company's core values of diversity and inclusion with a focus on visual impairment, as the company's founder John Kelly himself lives with an severe and incurable form of genetic sight loss.

Clap 'n Load Studios has also had films featured in Aer Lingus' in-flight entertainment system. Their documentary on sight-loss "Visionaries" is currently available on Aer Lingus flights until Nov 2024, and they are in discussions for more such presentation opportunities in the near future.
