Workshop: 


The Life Of A Freelancer - Kirsty Stark, Crew HQ. 

Time:  09:30 am - 2:15 pm


As a freelancer in film and TV, you become a business owner by default; moving from project to project and managing your own schedule and income alongside the other priorities in your life. So how do you set yourself up for success?


Emmy Award-winning Producer and founder of CrewHQ Kirsty Stark will advise on how to plan your career, build your profile, expand your network and stand out as a freelancer, whether you're an industry veteran or just starting out.


The sessions will cover:


  • What it means to be a freelancer
  • How to stand out against others in your role
  • Creating a CV, showreel and other promotional assets
  • Identifying your skills gaps
  • Mapping your professional network
  • Reaching out to potential hirers or collaborators
  • Where to find work
  • Your personal next steps from a career perspective


The workshop will be interactive and hands on, giving you the opportunity to work on your own goals as a freelancer, with feedback from Kirsty. You'll walk away with a clear plan to take the next steps in your own career.
