So nice to have our film "Blood Coloured Moon" screened in Sligo this weekend. Thanks to Follow That Car films.

104 years ago today, Irish film director William Desmond Taylor was found murdered in his Hollywood home — one of early cinema’s great unsolved mysteries.

That story continues to inspire creativity and connection. Cleverality founded Taylorfest, an annual film and arts festival in Taylor’s hometown of Carlow, to celebrate his legacy and the spirit of storytelling that endures.

Here’s a look back at one of the festival’s programs, featuring performances and contributions from Duke Special, Amanda Coogan, and a live, musically accompanied screening of Morals (1922) — a fitting tribute to a filmmaker whose story still echoes through time.

The magical ingredient in TV and movies (and increasingly in immersive experiences) is sound. Though Cleverality has worked exclusively in audio storytelling, via their various radio shows, every visual or theatrical production they have engaged in the audio component has been a priority. Cleverality director Marc-Ivan O’Gorman recently brushed up on his audio skills completing this Berklee College of Music course with award-winning sound designer Mark Cross
