Struggling to find regular work in the Media Industries?

Clearly Creative
Career Builder
As a freelancer, you’re building skills to be more creative, but you’re not learning the business techniques you need to grow your reputation and income.
It's easy to be locked into a paid-by-the-day relationship where the client is in control of when you work, and how much you get paid.
All freelancers should have a clear process for winning work and building relationships with clients (no matter how demanding).
This course gives you the tools to become a trusted collaborator that clients call first and pay more because of the high value you bring to each project.

How did Eleanor make the leap to freelancing?
Eleanor was editing for a news channel with little chance of career progression. She was apprehensive about leaving the security of a staff job, but wasn't getting the creative challenges or improving her income.
We worked together over six sessions, creating a plan of attack for overcoming these obstacles, building her confidence in how and where to look for work and making sure her CV and showreel was perfectly targeted for her ideal role. After a few months after our sessions ended, I received an email from her:
"Finally, I made it! I embraced the freelance world and I must say it is going better and better. I still remember our precious coaching meetings and all the invaluable advice you gave me.
Now everything is paying back. I am now developing my skills into the motion graphics field and I love it!"

J Watkinson
Workshop Attendee
This course helped me to completely re-write my CV into an organised creative format.
It's mostly focused around jobs in the television industry, but I found it also applied to freelance writing.
It was however a massive help, and I'd recommend it to any beginner or established professional.
Gareth
Writer/Director
Very insightful with lots of useful information, some major and some subtle (I really liked the psychology behind how you name the CV file).
As someone who has never had to write this type of CV before this was incredibly helpful and, hopefully, has saved me from a lot of unnecessary rejections. Thanks!
