A music video by a local lad could have a chance at being screened in Hollywood if it receives enough votes.

His ‘Catch a Rat’ music video has been selected to be screened at the Lift-Off Global Network Sessions.

From today (Sunday), at 10pm the film will be available for viewing for one week only on Vimeo on Demand as part of the festival.

Those involved include Grigoriy Geniyevskiy from Killarney and his friends from Cork which include Ronan Burke, John Healy and Ivan Rodriguez, who made the music video for the band ‘Gilbert or the Unfathomable Loneliness of the Deep Space Prospector’.

Grigoriy worked as cameraman and editor for the video, Ronan was the producer, Ivan the director and John the cinematographer, and they're hoping with the public’s help to get votes to get it to America.

“With your help, we could have a chance at winning this festival which allows for our film to be shown in Pinewood Studios, London and Raleigh Studios, Hollywood,” Grigoriy said.

“Keep an eye out for updates in the following days such as how you can support and vote for us!”
