PRODUCTION COMPANY & CREATIVE AGENCY
"None of this could have happened without Enda (Producer / Director Enda Grace), who is a huge talent and a great bloke. We literally could not have done it without him and the crew. They were absolute stalwarts. Having to make sense on film of the most ridiculous challenges we had to do, they coped magnificently and produced terrific results."
Actor Charlie Lawson about "Are We There Yet".
(Coronation Street (Jim McDonald), The Firm, Harry's Game, Doctors, Bread, The Bill)




Going Beyond the Frame
Reinventing the Experience
"An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it."
From creating, developing and producing original television programming for broadcast in Ireland and internationally to strategic online video content campaigns and lots more in between.
We can bring everything from a single camera operator right up to a full large scale production crew of the country's most talented people.
We use the latest state of the art equipment to produce all of our projects including Arri Alexa, Sony and RED cameras, DJI drones and green screen if required.
But for us production is more than just that.
It's about making sure our people have the interpersonal skills and friendliness to create a relaxed but professional and efficient set.

A Bit About Us
Enda Grace - Managing Director (Producer and Director) Producer and director of the Moving West series currently on TG4, Enda's parents bought him a video camera when he was 9 and he's had one in his hands ever since. After studying media and drama, he went on to work as a professional actor for nine years. He treaded the boards in a varied array of productions on Dublin's main theatre stages and onscreen in Ballykissangel, Fair City, Evelyn and Reign of Fire to name a few. Having this experience in front of camera gave him a valuable insight into what the viewer wants and feels as they watch television or web video content. Enda formed Dundara Productions in 2008 and since then has built the company to one of the busiest creative and production facilities in the country. As well as being an accomplished cameraman and editor, Enda has been working as a producer in television for a number of years now in many genres including documentary, long running series, chat show and music. He is also a producer of live television including 21 hours from the 2016 National Ploughing Championships and is very proud to have produced the first ever two hour live entertainment television broadcast from his native county, "Kildare Live". Enda recently directed and edited "Are We There Yet", a ten part travel series featuring Charlie Lawson and Daniel Coll alongside a host of well known celebrities which is currently broadcasting on PBS in the States. He also produced and directed "Treyvaud's Kitchen", a six part television cookery series for Flame Television in Australia and Virgin Media Ireland. In Spring 2019 in association with Big Handsome Media, Enda produced and directed the "Game of Thrones" season 8 premiere in Belfast for Warner Bros. The premiere broadcast across the United States on "Extra" on NBC from Universal Studios Hollywood. Enda produced and directed "Guaranteed Irish", a new business series presented by Mary Kennedy for TG4 in November 2020. In the television commercial genre, Enda produced and directed "Katie's Plan", the 2017 offering for our client Tipperary Crystal and broadcast on RTE and TV3. He most recently directed the 2018 Christmas television commercial, "Gifts From The Heart" for the same client which broadcast on RTE & Virgin Media. In addition to regularly producing commercials for TG4, he also produced one recently for Beacon South Quarter. Dundara is in pre-production for two further TVC's.

David Christopher Lynch - Cinematographer As a former professional rugby player there are some attributes that become engrained within someone. Integrity, perfectionism, leadership, collaboration, a possessed nature to succeed. Attributes that happen to transcend very effectively into the film and commercial world. This path brought David to UCD on a sports scholarship and also towards gaining his degree in English. A background that is used extensively today in the creative process. Having to leave his love for rugby behind due to injury, David’s step into the film world began as an intern with Screen Scene where he learned from some of the best in the country. Over the next few years he gained experience on some of Ireland’s largest productions. Game of Thrones, Ripper Street, Vikings, Operation Transformation, The Restaurant, Delinquent Season and Striking Out to name a few. Simultaneously David began to pursue his own love for filmmaking using all the experience from these larger productions on his own. With over a dozen short films to his name, two IFTA nominations as a producer and 150+ screenings at film festivals worldwide he began to understand what connected with audiences.
