''Dan & Becs'' was nominated for an Irish Film and Television Awards award in the category of Best Entertainment Programme. In 2008 Coffey co-wrote and directed a young peoples’ programme called Sweded TV for RTÉ Two. Sweded TV was selected for screening at the 2009 International Public Television Screening Conference in Warsaw, Poland. In 2009, he co-wrote and directed a new ten-part comedy series called ''Sarah & Steve'' broadcast on RTÉ Two. During the summer of 2009, Coffey co-wrote and directed a second season of ''Sweded TV'' which was also broadcast on RTÉ Two. Season 2 of ''Sweded TV'' was short-listed for the New York International Children's Film Festival. In 2010, ''Dan & Becs'' was optioned by Sony Pictures Entertainment and developed into a half hour pilot script for Fox Television. During the summer of 2010, Coffey co-wrote and directed a new young peoples' programme called ''Stereoswipes'' which was broadcast as part of The Rumour Room on RTÉ Two in the autumn of that year. Also in 2010, Coffey helped develop and co-direct a pilot for a new twelve-part reality show called ''Fade Street'' which was picked up by RTÉ. The show's format is loosely based on the style of American reality TV shows such as ''The Hills'' and ''The City''. Coffey worked as Story Producer on the show. More directing credits followed, including two series of Celebrity Salon for TV3, and ''The Perfect Irish Man'', a documentary for RTÉ Two. In 2012, Coffey wrote a sitcom pilot called ''Bad Angel'' for NBC Television. He also collaborated with ''Entourage'' producer Doug Ellin on the creation of a comedy pilot about Professional Wrestling for cable network, HBO. Later that year, Coffey collaborated with theatre director, Una McKevitt on a new documentary theatre piece called ''Singlehood''. The show was a huge hit at the Dublin Fringe Festival, and returned in early 2013 for two nights in the prestigious Dublin comedy venue, Vicar Street. On October 28, 2013, RTÉ Two broadcast a half-hour comedy pilot called ''The Commute'', which was written, produced and directed by Coffey. ''The Commute'', which was shot entirely on GoPro cameras, is about three couples living on the edge of Dublin's commuter belt. All the action takes place in the cars of the three featured couples as they travel to and from work every day. ==References== http://www.thecoffeyfilter.com/ 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dave Coffey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
