RTS West of England will be holding free events over the autumn aimed at supporting the freelance community.
We understand that this is a challenging time for the industry and many freelancers working in television tell us they are feeling isolated and unsure about the future.
Held at The Square Club, Bristol, early evening 6.30-8pm and free to attend, they will be a place to share stories, thoughts and advice with peers.
15th November: Assistant Producers/Producer Directors, Unscripted
There will be a brief talk from Ben Cheetham (DV Director) and Helen Waddell (Producer) on their recent experiences on Trawlermen: Hunting the Catch (Frank Films for BBC One) sharing techniques, insights and challenges.
A representative from The Film and TV Charity will also be present for support and advice.
The aim is to create an optional WhatsApp group after the event, to enable those who have attended to keep in touch.
Limited places available, first come first served. One complimentary drink on arrival, then cash bar available.
Please note these events are aimed at those with one year+ experience in the TV industry, not at entry level talent, or those looking to pursue a career in television.
If you are starting out and interested in a career in television, please come along to the RTS Futures Festival, 22nd November, M Shed, free to attend. Keep an eye on @RTS_Bristol for the launch of bookings.
