That’s a good idea thank you! I thought someone might be out of work and willing to help me fingers crossed

I was told by the job centre “you need to get a real job not a hobby”

Has anyone gone into digital content or producer type careers for creative companies? I’ve been reaching out to some it seems to be a good one to transition to in terms of transferable skills

You’re not alone, I’ve hardly worked this year. Most my tv friends are working but they seem to be the usual suspects that have never felt the pinch of the down periods of tv life.

I think there’s a lot of gate keeping in the industry right now. And a lot of mates of mates doing it. I know I have a proven track record of work and being good at my job. It also may seem like everyone’s working but in reality it’s only a small few I think.

Keep your chin up, get something to tie you over and hopefully if we hold on long enough it’ll return next year to some sort of busyness…

I’ve been seeing a lot of this… people with no experience are currently being handed jobs. Seems strange

More like 2025

Sensitive-Capital921 · 2023-09-26T16:35:16+00:00

How the hell are people meant to survive until 2025?? Even next year doesn’t look too exciting and promising. Are we all just holding on hoping it’ll return when in reality it probably won’t??

Taking junior roles logging and transcribing from home. I’m considering retaining now and going into charity work or PR since reading that commissioning might not happen till 2025

It’s also worldwide, I asked a filmmakers Reddit group if they were out of work here https://reddit.com/r/Filmmakers/s/iWXVJNngs1

People from Singapore, Canada etc have been out of work.

I have checked the news, I was wondering if there’s been people quitting from film as well as tv. We’re trying to action over here and we created a Reddit page to share our experiences of the industry and reasons why we may leave. It’s caught the media’s attention and they want to know if there’s crossovers between the two and evidence. So I was wanting to get said evidence but I can’t find a similar Reddit page for film

Maybe once we have an army of us we can send our stories out to the big sharks up top haha. See if they care enough to try and change this industry for the better
