Tim’s Tactical Tips, 2011-2012
Tim’s first big role was a fun foray into the world of children’s TV presenting. Each episode Tim sought to solve some of the problems sent in by viewers from around the country, ranging in difficulty from how to get out of doing your homework, all the way up to how to make some pocket money for sweets!
Tim’s Tactical Tips was produced by Tailored Films for RTÉ.
Tenement Tales, 2013
Tailored Films, working alongside the Irish Congress of Trade Unions (ICTU), produced a series of short videos demonstrating the difficult life of the poorest living in Dublin’s tenements around the pivotal year of the transport lockout, 1913. Tim acted as a time travelling presenter, showing the massive differences unionised labour has made in our everyday lives.
Produced by Tailored Films for the ICTU.
