15 Famous Minutes
Fifteen Famous Minutes provides a unique opportunity for teambuilding where creative juices are allowed to flow as teams immerse themselves in the famous world of Hollywood.
The event will begin with a briefing of activities. The group will be divided into separate teams and given an instruction pack including information on the location and their brief.
Each team will be armed with a video camera & sound equipment, a portable lighting rig, all the costumes, make-up, musical equipment, various props, a clapper-board, in fact everything necessary to make an on-location no expenses spared epic proportioned film.
Each team will also have to make an advert, design a new company logo and slogan in addition to writing and performing an original piece of music.
All team members will be involved in the production, which as well as being a great deal of fun is also a sophisticated team-building exercise, highlighting the need for good teamwork, planning, delegation, communication skills and decision making within a team context.
Film themes such as Robin Hood, Batman, James Bond etc and adverts such as Pampers, Guinness, Diet Coke etc will be assigned to each team.
A synopsis and key dialogue will be explained in a booklet provided which also details the camera, lighting and audio instructions; together with creative video tips and make-up suggestions.
Team members must decide within their own team who will be responsible for each task, film, advert, logo etc.
QUEST staff will be on hand to act as creative and technical advisers and as general “agents provocateurs” to ensure full participation.
- The Premiere
That evening a formal dinner will be the setting for the movie premiere ceremony.
The films are premiered on a big screen to an expectant audience: screen kisses, deaths and romance galore! Then comes the grand award ceremony, complete with emotional acceptance speeches and mock Oscar awards are presented to the winning teams by some of the biggest names in Hollywood !?!
- 15 Famous Minutes
This event is without doubt the most successful and focused teambuilding event in Ireland.
This event was devised by Quest Events in 1993 and has been copied unsuccessfully by many competitors over the years.
Each team must produce a movie and advertisement during the day (half or full day).
Each team is provided with all of the props, cameras, lighting, makeup, sound effects and costumes to make a blockbuster.
That evening the movies and advertisements are shown on a big screen followed by an Oscar Awards ceremony.
A superb teambuilding event with maximum fun !
