IRINA. You outdid yourself on this one for me, personally! As a burgeoning filmmaker living here in FL, fresh out of film school, wanting to "do business" in Jamaica, particularly in the film sector, I more than appreciated this video and its content. I have been networking for years with local Jamaican filmmakers down there and also have been watching locally "produced" Jamaican films down there as entertainment, but also as a glimpse into what is happening with the film industry landscape there. So its good to see that there are now funding in place for these independent filmmakers to apply to for financial help to make their projects better, as far as the resources needed. I can go on and on, but I have saved this video and have taken notes on some of the film sectors and individuals mentioned, and will move accordingly. Thank you so much again, for doing "the work", and keep it up! And yes, definitely apply yourself! I would love to see the likes of a "Marcus Garvey" or a "Nanny of the Maroons" type movie, etc. God bless! ✨🇯🇲❤
I watched this twice to make sure I didn't miss anything. I'm excited for my island, the local industry and all the creative and crew!! We are an international brand, and now we have this special opportunity to be known for another positive thing outside music, Track & Field, and our awesome beaches.
Irina this was a fantastic highlight of the Jamaican film industry. It was especially interesting to see Henzill's daughter and hear about the sacrifice her father made to make sure Harder They Come was made. Such tremendous talent on the island. Hopefully the fund will accomplish its goals. Thank you for this video.
So happy you watched Cool runnings back in the days because it’s a blessing having you onboard today.Continue to do what you’re doing for us film makers.
I’m excited for our local film industry. Looking forward to seeing quality films coming out of Jamaica. You definitely should apply, it’s a start, hoping for the best ❤❤❤
The story of any Jamaican person could be captivating bc we have such a variety in family culture but we also of the ties that binds us as one Jamaica. I cannot wait to see what our brilliant minds produces.
I would love to see a well put together documentary about Usain Bolt. Simply name "Bolt's Journey" from a boy to a young man who captivates and moves so many around the world. I believe fans around the world would love to see how this greatness comes to be....
Irie I've always wanted to be involved in something like this, im living in the UK but want to come home so bad. Thank u Irie once again for letting us see another side that I know is there.
The BBC produced two mini series from the novel by the author Andrea Levy.Small Island and long Song which were really good. I read the novel Black cake before the mini series, I was fascinate that this was the first time Chinese jamaicans had been featured . I've always thought the Chinese community in jamaica might be a good subject for a feature film or documentary. The Chinese community in jamaica was one of the largest after Cuba, up on till the 1970s when a lot of them left the island due to the turbulenceof that period. Ive read a few articles on the chinese in jamaica what I found interesting is that they assimilation far more into jamaican society then in other countries. (if am wrong please don't come for me Lol) the Chinese not only were the wholesalers, they also played a significant part in the bakery industry and also the music industry on the island. This might be a good subject.
I honestly agree with a lot of what you said. As a Jamaican that lived in Jamaica for majority of my life, the Indians definitely felt more involved with the culture than let's say Chinese. I had a lot of Indian and coolie classmates than blasian, growing up. Majority of my pediatric care when I was younger came from doctors from India. That was typically their main profession. But it seems in recent years maybe due to the construction work happening on the island more mainland Chinese, are moving to the island. Which is where you get the narrative of 'Chinese are taking over the island'. But even before that Jamaica always had a significant Chinese population, working in corner shops and bakeries. I don't believe there's any town in Jamaica that doesn't have a Chinese store. I just hope as time goes on we'll be more integrated as a society.
I would like to see a movie about Shelly Frazer Pryce. DOCUMENTARY about Jamaica Track N Field, Movie about the inception of the rum industry, Nanny, Marcus Garvey. There is so much to be told from Slavery to Now. I'm so Proud of Country and People. So much Richness and Depth..❤
Definitely can make some money...this video is ironic as the Black River Film Festival running from June 27to 30 having actors/actresses to directors/film makers from across the world including those from Wakanda
There is a book titled " From Hervey River" the book starts in Island, climaxed in Jamaica and ended in Canada. This I believe would make the best Netflix series, please see if you could encourage someone to write the script of this book. Have a read and you will see what I am talking about. From Harvey River: A Memoir of My Mother and Her Island.
There is so many stories I'd love to hear. One I would love to be told on feature film is Queen Nanny of the maroons, I think this could be a very captivating story that shows the resilience of Jamaica and her people.
That would be Epically awesome done by the right person not an ill minded individual. It is not enough to tell the truth, it is how you tell the truth that matters.
As A Jamaican been watching you from the start PLEASE MEK SURE YU APPLY !!!! PERIOD ..What you have been doing for us is priceless !!!!! RESPECT MI JAMAICAN SISTER .Yes we fully adapt you !!!
I have faith in Jamaicans to make the best of this opportunity. I wish them all success. Although I like documentaries, i think a really good drama would capture a wider audience? Good luck to everyone applying.
Exciting times, progress is at it's finest when evolved organically, so for the brightest writers, creatives, technicians, blossom well. Love from London.
Irina, thanks once again for highlighting JAMAICA and JAMAICANS in a Most Positive Way...I Appreciate you and what you do. P.S.: Hope you are fully recovered, and it was a "Bummer" we didn't get to meet up as planned when I was recently down there. It was an AMAZING trip back home though...as always.
The last time I was in Jamaica, we went to a theme park in Ochi Rio's. it had shops and a cinema. I thought then that this would make a great place as a film set as the atmosphere felt dreamy and slightly cartoonish. For example I was walking along window gazing and was startled to look down and saw ducks with their ducklings just waddling along beside me as if they were going shopping too. Jamaica would be perfect for a netflix series due to the beautiful infrastructure and lively people.
If anyone looking for an up and coming coming Jamaican actress please to consider me. Didn't attend any acting school but have learnt a lot from Michael Nicholson at Ardenne High school. Much blessings 🇯🇲🇬🇧
I read sometime ago that the book Escape to Last Man Peak was being made into a movie.. I hope they get some of this money because it is a great book. Thank you, Irene, for making this video❤❤
🇯🇲🇯🇲 Despite our population size and because of our talents there are not “ too many rivers we cannot cross”. We’ve impacted cultures and mindsets with athletics, food, music and to a lesser extent potois, our unofficial but recognized national dialect. I’ve always thought that the average Jamaican is naturally endowed with confidence and ability to express oneself publicly, enough to be charismatic and camera-friendly. I’m not unaware that which is an “Oscar” performance on UA-cam might not qualify to be in a B rated cinematic. However, I just think there are too many fermented talents lying around wasting away when showmanships and self-expressions are not unlike water trying to seek a level ground. No doubt this $billion film initiative will be a catylst to harvest many “ Hollywood-type fruits” that creative execs from yonder shores will come begging to know “how are they doing so much with so little”. We need not look very far when our track & field athletes were footnotes at the Olympics, to winning a few medals and now iconic world beaters. Let them keep asking the questions “ how and why”………the answer remains TALENT.
I would love to work with all those screenwriters, directors, actors, editors etc. I am the owner of a Website, sort of like Netflix, YT & IG all in one. What I don’t have is a team of professionals like yourself to make it happen for the Jamaican culture.
In addition to that, Ian Flemming the creator of James Bond, moved to Jamaica and wrote all his Bond novels there. One can argue that the most famous spy in the world was invented in Jamaica.
The film industry is an excellent niche that Jamaica NEEDS to capitalize on. The film industry can work in tandem with tourism, and it would be a real game changer. Topic I would recommend to become a film would be on Nanny of the Maroons or the Trelawny Maroons sent to Nova Scotia and Sierra Leone 💯🇯🇲
Are they going to be working with the comedy play people like Patrick Brown and the trail blazers like Glen Campbell and Oliver Samuels to get some stage plays broadcasted?
Long time haven't seen those. But. Some of them are embarrassingly stupid, just a laughi for children One hour which should only be 40min if they cut out the childish Stupidity. they would be accepted in any country
Don't speak ill of your self . Everyone is somebody. You not a famous somebody but all famous person were unknown before they put them self out there and became known How we speak of our selves is what we become. just say " I am somebody but not a famous somebody yet".
Rolling Calf stories were capable for keeping children running home before dark, despite the lack of special effects. I am thinking, The Blair Witch Project... Sesame Street may have a nice formula to bring to the island. SciFi and Fantasy fiction without the horror component would be nice to see. I recall, The Mighty Quinn. I currently believe the crime and depravity stories are already well explored by the US film industry when it comes to black people and don't need to see those, personally.
Irina, as always your mini-documentaries are very informative, thank you very much for your research and hard work putting them together for us to view. 😊
Please don't forget also that Jamaica is one of the few countries in the world where you can stay here and make great youtube videos, because there's endless amounts of content right here, Jamaica 🇯🇲 is always trending on social media
2 things: first, I am excited for all of you I truly wish you all the best !! Can't wait to see what comes to the screen. Second, I grew up in Switzerland and I can't even start to tell you how Cool running effected the positive outlook of Jamaica, that is why you see the whole world cheering in sports for Jamaican athletes. I mean how may times in tge Olympics you cheer for a country that isn't yours?
Jamaica needs to learn from the S. Korean Gov’t which heavily invested in exporting the beautiful, idealized side of Korean culture via K-Drama and K-Pop, which has been a huge success and leading to the demand for Korean products abroad. Jamaica is in a sweet spot to do the same.
There's lots more to be seen on PBCj JIS UA-cam channel along with Jamaica magazine every event is shown on there every day. If you wasn't aware. The gleaner online is more inclined to highlight sports or finding of a hand gun It's seems sinister to me. why they feature the finding of a hand gun every day. On a big national newspaper
Same in the U.S. The saying goes, “if it bleeds it leads the news.” Never anything positive, always crime, killing, negative. So I understand. Blessings to you and to all Jamaicans. Jamaica is my second home.
I think they should do a spin off the Bob Marley movie. There are so many layers to his life to explore. They focused on his relationship with Rita Marley. Now they can do his music, his travels, his love for football and his children and much more
The first film should be about; 1) Saving the Environment 2) Jamaican Independence 3) Historical Documentary 4) The Reggeae Boys Football 5) A Love Story 6) A movie about Gangs
Hello to me you are amazing Lady the way you show JAM ROCK . And I say BIG UP to You I thank you and please give it your Best I read about what you did for those Jamaica that was studying in Ukraine how you help them to get their education paper you are a great Jamaican that my taught
I work in the film industry here in the uk in construction side building sets. Between out of work due to the writers strike. I hope it ALL goes well for the industry in Jamaica. Funny thing is that I’m in the process of moving to Jamaica maybe my experience in building sets maybe come handy.
No, but I am a Jamaican permanent resident. I cannot be a citizen, as Ukraine doesn't allow dual citizenship. I'm waiting for Ukraine to change the law first and then would apply to become a JA citizen.
This is just great. I love the arts, and anything to do with the arts. I wish Jamaica would get away from the British ways of educational schooling and turn to the American system of teaching. I did not start school until I was 7 years old when I lived in Jamaica. I know now that, that was way too late for me as a child. But that was the way things were back then. I think the arts should be taught in the schools in Jamaica. I think it would be a great thing for the future generations. I think it would open up the eyes of the younger generations to a new era and also to let them know that there are other options other than reggae.
This is very very interesting that Jamaica is looking at another area that Jamaica can excel. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and to the attention of us Jamaicans/Caribbean people in the diaspora. I am forever grateful that I found your channel.
it would be nice to have a biopic of Marcus Garvey or Nanny of the Maroons. Also, thank you Irina, you are a true Jamaican sister and we love you for real...nuff respect!

Jamaica has all you need to make good films,sunshine beach’s location and lighting. Rule the waves.JA.
JAMAICA WITH IRIE, This is awesome! I subscribed because I want to see more!
The story of any Jamaican person could be captivating bc we have such a variety in family culture but we also of the ties that binds us as one Jamaica. I cannot wait to see what our brilliant minds produces.
I am Loving this!!!!!!!

Images And Stories are the economy of our existence. Jamaica, like Black Worldwide, has to take the initiative and reclaim Our Images And Stories.
You are doing a good in promoting jamaica

That would be Epically awesome done by the right person not an ill minded individual. It is not enough to tell the truth, it is how you tell the truth that matters.
A lot Jamaicans are not happy about the one love film although it's a success, so it's a great opportunity to do it the Jamaicans way.
As A Jamaican been watching you from the start PLEASE MEK SURE YU APPLY !!!! PERIOD ..What you have been doing for us is priceless !!!!! RESPECT MI JAMAICAN SISTER .Yes we fully adapt you !!!

In addition to that, Ian Flemming the creator of James Bond, moved to Jamaica and wrote all his Bond novels there. One can argue that the most famous spy in the world was invented in Jamaica.
Thanks, I thought about this after
Also, part of the Blue Lagoon
I think you would be a great producer of film in Jamaica, so take small steps for our country
How can I contribute to your efforts?
Irena please apply because you're a Jamaican now one up
The film industry is an excellent niche that Jamaica NEEDS to capitalize on. The film industry can work in tandem with tourism, and it would be a real game changer.

Hi sis, respect and blessings, was just thinking about you, wondering how I haven't seen no new post from you, welcome back, bless 👍
For years now, I have had great ideas for a film that would be about Jamaica and filmed in Jamaica.... but I'm a nobody!
Don't speak ill of your self . Everyone is somebody. You not a famous somebody but all famous person were unknown before they put them self out there and became known How we speak of our selves is what we become. just say " I am somebody but not a famous somebody yet".
@@eileenwatt8283 here here. We are all somebody 🙌🏾
You know seh a horror film name “Rolling Calf” would do big for Jamaica. I don’t mind if somebody make a film like this. I’ll even help with ideas.

I'm more into documentaries, so if anything - I'd be making a documentary feature film.
Irena you are on another level Sistren. You are simply the best at what you do. Please keep doing you. One love 🇬🇧🇯🇲❤️
An organized Film and Sports industry is well needed in Jamaica 🇯🇲

Is there any movie currently beginning to develop at the moment locally?
sure, there are quite a few! Check out Black River Film Festivals for some new short films that have already been produced.
Are you applying Irina?
Thanks for the info!
I'm looking forward to a Nanny feature film.
Good morning from Papua New Guinea,.
Jamaica needs to learn from the S. Korean Gov’t which heavily invested in exporting the beautiful, idealized side of Korean culture via K-Drama and K-Pop, which has been a huge success and leading to the demand for Korean products abroad. Jamaica is in a sweet spot to do the same.
Jamaicans are natural actors, I would say naturally funny, it's a great opening
Irina, thank you. Your hard work is appreciated.
If you dont tell your story, someone is going to tell it for you. So many stories to be told out of Jamaica. Its a good much!
Thank you🙏
We need the Marcus Garvey movie now.
I am a frequent reader of online gleaner and observer. But never see anything about this wonderful initiative. What a country?
They were writing about it, but it was somewhere in the middle of the paper, not a front page story, easy to miss.
There's lots more to be seen on PBCj JIS UA-cam channel along with Jamaica magazine every event is shown on there every day. If you wasn't aware.
The gleaner online is more inclined to highlight sports or finding of a hand gun
It's seems sinister to me. why they feature the finding of a hand gun every day. On a big national newspaper
@@Clairemont7893Oh you do know why. Bad news sells. All about the Benjamins!
Same in the U.S. The saying goes, “if it bleeds it leads the news.” Never anything positive, always crime, killing, negative. So I understand. Blessings to you and to all Jamaicans. Jamaica is my second home.
This is great!
Please apply or collaborate with a team
Thank you, Irie.❤❤❤❤
I think they should do a spin off the Bob Marley movie. There are so many layers to his life to explore. They focused on his relationship with Rita Marley. Now they can do his music, his travels, his love for football and his children and much more
The first film should be about;
1) Saving the Environment
2) Jamaican Independence
3) Historical Documentary
4) The Reggeae Boys Football
5) A Love Story
6) A movie about Gangs
no more gangs, please
story of Miss Lou
No more gang movie please. No money for gang movie
An interesting list, thank you!
Port Royal - the wickedest city on earth!.. That's a Netflix Hit series right these
Irie big up your self. Long time need more video
I think they can do more movie about Bob Marley and do a movie about marus Garvey and Hattian revolution
👍🏾another great video miss irie we love ❤️ you so much 🇯🇲 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🙋🏾♂️👧🏽🙏🏿 🇺🇦
Hello to me you are amazing Lady the way you show JAM ROCK . And I say BIG UP to You I thank you and please give it your Best I read about what you did for those Jamaica that was studying in Ukraine how you help them to get their education paper you are a great Jamaican that my taught
A film about jimmy cliff's life is long overdue.
Wow great to see Miss Justine Henzell what a story and a legacy
I work in the film industry here in the uk in construction side building sets.
Between out of work due to the writers strike. I hope it ALL goes well for the industry in Jamaica.
Funny thing is that I’m in the process of moving to Jamaica maybe my experience in building sets maybe come handy.
Every island in the Caribbean needs an Irina….
Are you a jamaican citizen?
No, but I am a Jamaican permanent resident. I cannot be a citizen, as Ukraine doesn't allow dual citizenship. I'm waiting for Ukraine to change the law first and then would apply to become a JA citizen.
Love, love it, this is the right move at the right time, one billion is a great start!!!
This is one area where Jamaica could be strong because Jamaican movie industry don't need big budgets and still be big
This is just great. I love the arts, and anything to do with the arts. I wish Jamaica would get away from the British ways of educational schooling and turn to the American system of teaching. I did not start school until I was 7 years old when I lived in Jamaica. I know now that, that was way too late for me as a child. But that was the way things were back then.

Triple J will bring great things to the film industry. Flagrans forever.
Oh you moved up to Kingston! Never thought you'd ever do that. 😊
@Richard Brown films and his team has been doing a great job. Please can you reach out to them Irena. Keep up the great work. Much love 🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️🇯🇲🇬🇧
Thank you for sharing! I haven't seen his work before, will check him out!
This is very very interesting that Jamaica is looking at another area that Jamaica can excel. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and to the attention of us Jamaicans/Caribbean people in the diaspora. I am forever grateful that I found your channel.
it would be nice to have a biopic of Marcus Garvey or Nanny of the Maroons. Also, thank you Irina, you are a true Jamaican sister and we love you for real...nuff respect!
There is a Marcus Garvey movie in the works starring Winston Duke.
❤❤❤❤ 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Have you noticed Irena looks like Justine Henzell
What about the starling video did you get it ? is a video coming ?
Irina you should apply look at the impact of your Ireland documentary and the previous two that you did.
keep up the good work my friend.
