Maria O'Connor, Supervising Location Manager and Team
Disenchanted, Disney

The picturesque village of Enniskerry in County Wicklow is filled with charm and meets the director's brief; interesting buildings, shop fronts, plus a central monument where 3 main streets create a central meeting point was the ideal location to stage large dance scenes. This was the perfect location to film the sequel to Disney's Enchanted, Disenchanted, and Enniskerry would be transformed into Disneyland. Working closely with the local community, the crew and their teams created such an incredible spectacle with exquisite sets designed and dressed that the village became a local tourist attraction.

"I am so delighted to accept this award on behalf of my amazing team . The collaboration of locations, art , construction and local authorities made it possible to achieve what we did in the village of Enniskerry . I’m very proud of this and very thankful to the judging panel for this award."

Maria O’Connor, supervising location manager, Disenchanted (Disney)
