    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • The great thing about my role is that it changes from day-to-day. I am in charge of reading scripts and assessing if they are good enough to consider for TV development. Alongside this I also get to join development meetings, creative talks, and much more.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I have learnt and developed so many new skills here. I now know how to confidently run meetings with agents and writers; I can put together a pitch deck; proof read scripts; write coverage on scripts; pitch ideas in meetings; give coherent presentations and that isn't even the half of it!
