From Picture Shop Placement to Dream Job

At Screen Manchester we like to keep you updated on progress made by our talented trainees. Today we share the story of Max who was offered a five-week trainee placement position facilitated by Screen Manchester at Manchester’s branch of leading post house, Picture Shop. There he performed and impressed so well that he was offered a role as a Post Production runner and has now worked there for several months.

Today whilst Oldham Sixth Form College were attending for their Connected Campus tour, Max spoke to the students about his career path to date and detailed what he did to help secure this opportunity: “his dream job”.

Max’s trainee placement and the Connected Campus initiative are supported by Screen Alliance North and are made possible by British Film Institute and National Lottery Funding.
