The Workshop

Our world is saturated with filmmakers, directors and content creators. Now more than ever, it's a struggle to get noticed.

But one thing is certain; the earlier you begin, the better your chances.

So, where do you start?

How best can you use your limited time, energy and resources to create the best work you can?

And when you've made that work, how do you share it with as many people as possible?

On 16th May the talented director and filmmaker – Jack Burke – will host a casual workshop and discussion on the power of 'the one man army'.

Talking to attendees about their current skill sets, the aim of Jack's session is to inform the filmmakers, directors, and creators of Goldsmiths how to best produce brilliant work quickly, effectively, and with no budget necessary.

As an ex-in-house production specialist at YouTube, Jack will also talk about modern day distribution models in the online world, and demonstrate how to get your work watched by as many people as possible. The session will leave you with a good feeling on how to get your foot in the door with exactly what you have, right now.
