Screen Manchester and Screen Alliance North with BFI support and National Lottery funding is delighted to invite interested crew in Manchester and across The North to a series of online workshops hosted by Sara Putt of Sara Putt Associates.
Sara has been an agent supporting crew in their careers since 1989 and will share her advice and knowledge in these key areas in the coming weeks:
- Does your CV need an update?
- Would you like to feel more confident about negotiating your contracts?
- What do employers expect in terms of training?
- Have you wondered whether an agent would benefit you?
- Is it something you need to consider yet or at all?
These hour-long sessions are specifically for crew already working in the industry and there will be an opportunity to ask questions and pick Sara’s brains during each session.
These are being hosted on three consecutive Wednesdays and you can sign up easily via the links below.
