This is a new short interview series called “Spotlight”.

From fitness enthusiasts to innovative entrepreneurs to creative artists, in each episode, I speak with people from various backgrounds to highlight what they are most passionate about.
In this episode, I met with Shonagh Lyons, a radio presenter who co-hosts Beat Breakfast on Beat 102-103, the biggest radio station in the south-east of Ireland.

Shonagh’s journey started with a love of drama. She was part of many drama productions as a child in her home town of Wexford but later went on to study drama at DIT in Rathmines, Dublin.

Soon after completing her studies, she landed a job as a presenter on the RTE kids show Sattitude which kick-started her presenting career.

After returning to live in Wexford, she spotted an opportunity in radio and decided to study the broadcast course which was run by Beat and WLR and soon after was given the chance to start with Beat. She then set her sights on presenting the Breakfast Show at Beat and the rest is history as they say.

Shonagh’s drive, hard-working attitude and gratitude for what she has is truly inspiring. She is living proof that knowing what you want and putting the work in pays off.

I enjoyed this chat with Shonagh and I hope you do too.

Enjoy!

Since then her talent and career have gone from strength to strength. Her paintings have been displayed in galleries such as the Cockleshell, Green Acres, the Wexford Arts Centre and St Michael’s Theatre in New Ross as well as being held in private collections around the world.

I really enjoyed catching up with Helen and hearing her story.

An eventful day spent filming in Tullamore with Athletics Ireland last week.

This video is another from the Women in Sport Series for Badminton Ireland, with this one focused on the story of an umpire.

Here's a really great and fun way to get to know athletes - a rapid fire questions video. This is one we shot and edited at the end of last year.

It engages and connects with an audience, brings energy whilst keeping things light-hearted, and is simple in it's set-up on screen (after the set up of multiple cameras, lights, and mic's of course).

We have a few other examples up on our website www.keithnolanfilms.com if you're interested in seeing more of them.

You can get in touch with us for a chat at [email protected] too.

We will be posting some of our past work over the next few weeks.

First up is work we did for New Era, a health and fitness based company, based in Dublin. They provide people with accessible credible science-based information related to all things training, nutrition and health.

They wanted to capture the experience of one of their long-term members Kevin and the most success he has gotten since joining New Era.

Testimonial videos allow your potential clients to see other people talk about your products or service, giving an unscripted and honest opinion. It helps give your brand the credibility it should have when it comes to your target audience.

The 3rd episode of the Club & Country Series we filmed with Athletics Ireland featuring athlete Mark Smyth delving into his athletics journey to date, importance of athletes building each other up in the sport and what lies ahead for him.

These videos really provide a valuable insight into the athlete behind the sport, giving people that deeper connection and understanding of the sport and the athlete behind it.
