Cinema Premiere | AI Filmmaking Hackathon
On Sunday 19 April, the Give(a)Go AI Filmmaking Hackathon v2 closes at the Savoy, Dublin.
A cinema premiere. A live award ceremony.
**NOTE: To get a ticket apply to join here: [www.giveago.co/register/premiere](giveago.co/register/premiere)**
One night to see what happened when 100 of Ireland's best creatives + builders spent 24 hours making films.
Semi-formal or formal attire is encouraged. And bring a prop from your favourite film, something small, something yours.
The day before, creatives and engineers whose credits span Netflix, Prime Video, and beyond gathered at Dogpatch Labs with a single brief: write, generate, shoot, score, and finish a complete short film in 24 hours. No placeholders. No demos. Real films, made with frontier AI tools, shaped by people who care about what ends up on screen.
Now you get to see what they made. Grab some popcorn.
Every film screens on the big screen. Five award categories, judged by people from across the creative and technical worlds, with the results announced on the night.

**Abstract**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise.
We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration.
Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.
