East Anglia

Eastern Region Production Panel & Networking Event

As a follow up to the networking event we held in October, we (PACT & RTS) are pulling together another event in March in Cambridge. The purpose is to create an event that brings together the production community, freelancers and associated businesses, based in the Eastern region of the UK. This is meant to be a relaxed networking event where we have a chance to discuss the market, the strengths of the region and how we can help to build a supportive network of people who all have a common interest in the industry and in growing and developing the region.
 

F1 On Screen

What is the relationship between Formula 1 and television? How is the "Drive to Survive" effect changing the audience for the sport? And how does commentary and production for F1 work?

Rosanna Tennant of F1 TV fame hosts a panel of TV and Formula 1 experts including Ted Kravitz from Sky Sports F1, Dean Locke, Director of Broadcast and Media for F1 and Alex Jacques, Channel 4's F1 commentator. 

Membership of The Union Club

RTS Members are able to make use of the Union Club and may bring guests to the restaurant and bar for breakfast, lunch and dinner bookings.

The Union Club was set up in 1993 by ex-North Sea oil rigger Pete Cross and Chef Carolyn Dawson, and both are (for their sins) still at the helm of the Club today. Opening a private members club had been a long held dream for the duo, and they took the plunge after buying a dilapidated building at 50 Greek Street, Soho.
