Have you thought about making the move across to the TV Production route? Maybe you want to move across from an Editorial role, or from the Theatre & Events industry and wonder if you have transferable skills and if you’d enjoy it. What do the production team do day to day in unscripted TV and how do you go about making the move across?
The course will be broken down into easy to digest sections over 3 days and will be very interactive with practical and group exercises, allowing you to try specific production tasks to give you a taste of what each role involves. There will also be opportunities to ask questions throughout.
Who it's for
This course is aimed at those in Editorial roles who have considered moving across to Production Management in unscripted TV and those looking to transfer across from the Theatre & Events industry.
By the end of the course you will have experienced a taste of each role and understand what each role involves day to day and what key skills are required. You’ll also receive guidance on how to make the move across to production if you feel it’s the route you’d like to take.
