Use this guide to help you figure out what career stage best fits you:
Entry: You are just entering the screen industries. You are still figuring out your career path and working towards your first professional credits.
Early: You are establishing your screen industry career, have a couple of professional credits and a sense of the role or department you want to work in, even if you’re not regularly working within it yet.
Experienced: It’s been more than five years since you left education and you’re progressing with your career. You’re regularly working in your chosen department, have a number of professional credits and might be expected to control budgets or oversee crew.
Expert: It’s been more than 10 years since you left education and you’re acknowledged as an expert in your specific job role or department. You have built up a portfolio of professional credits and regularly work in advanced positions. You are highly regarded in your field and may be in control of departmental budgets.
We have created this e-learning series with and for industry to ensure that people who are progressing in their careers have access to a host of useful learning and tips to help them understand more about how TV drama and comedy (scripted content) is made and the roles and responsibilities within it.
There are 12 modules to complete and a quiz to test knowledge gained at the end.
We have also created a handy glossary of the key words and phrases that will help those who are new to the screen industries, or early in their career, understand their role better. We recommend that you bookmark the glossary on your mobile device for easy reference in the workplace.
