Get Into Film & TV: Successes!

“This bootcamp taught me a lot of skills I didn’t have before – like how to use different types of camera equipment and learning all the new industry lingo. I can’t wait to meet even more people.

This training has helped me in so many ways – building my confidence, forming new friendships, and pushing me to put myself out there. I found my place and discovered the path I want to follow.”

“This bootcamp has absolutely made a difference in my life. After being knocked down so many times, I finally feel like I have a real chance to reconnect and step into something with more freelance opportunities.

I’m just trying to navigate the world of freelancing after so many years working on different contracts – it’s a big shift, but this programme has given me the boost I needed to start making it happen.”

“The bootcamp has been a game changer, giving me direction and the confidence to continue pursuing this path in my life.

The sessions had structure but felt conversational, giving us space to ask questions and feel comfortable reaching out anytime. Having two mentors offered a well-rounded view of how producers and directors work, providing a combined picture of the industry.”

“JGA has given me powerful tools to achieve my professional dreams in film and TV. It has given me the confidence to apply for jobs in this industry and clarity on the exact role I want to pursue.

By overcoming barriers of entering the industry, I’ve gained first-hand experience and learned how to apply my transferable skills to production assistant and runner positions.”

“When I first joined the programme, I was really intimidated – I felt like the underdog in the room. But the learning environment was so encouraging, and everyone has been incredibly supportive.

This experience has given me a huge boost mentally, creatively, and emotionally – especially at a time when I really needed it. I finally feel like I’m heading in a direction I’ve wanted for a long time and I’m not as scared to go after it anymore.”

“This course gave me purpose at a time when I felt stuck – after finishing university, I couldn’t get a job or apply for grad schemes and I didn’t have the support to challenge it. But here, I found people who listened, encouraged me and helped me believe in myself again.

Before this, I lacked knowledge about the production process and this course gave me exactly what I needed to understand the different stages. I really loved how our mentor would show us a music video, walk us through the treatment and breakdown and then get us to create our own script for a music video.”
