Closing date for applications: Monday 26th MayCompensation: National Living WageDuration: 4 weeksSign up to <a href="https://opportunities.creativeaccess.org.uk/job/learn-more-webinar-crewhq-entry-level-sevenup-programme-34295" target="_blank">our Learn More webinar </a>on Thursday 15th May to find out more &amp; hear tops tips on applying from the CrewHQ team. Want to work in film but don’t know where to start? SevenUp is your way in: paid placements, real experience, and no industry connections needed.The SevenUp programme from CrewHQ is a training and skills initiative by Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden, offering four-week paid placements on Warner Bros. Television, HBO, and Warner Bros. Features productions. Designed to tackle barriers to entry in the film industry, SevenUp supports individuals with little or no experience in production. Applicants must be over 18, have the right to live and work in the UK, and have under a year of experience in film. Selected participants will receive a week of preparatory training, meet hiring managers, and complete placements in entry-level roles on major HETV and film franchises. Throughout the programme, participants will also benefit from mentorship by mid-level crew members involved in the initiative.<h3> SevenUp programme FAQs:</h3>What is SevenUp?SevenUp is a work experience opportunity for people that love film and HETV and want to work below-the-line (not writer, director, producer, stunts or on-screen talent) in film and HETV production. SevenUp specifically focuses on those that have experienced significant barriers to entry and advancement in below-the-line film production, that have a right to work and live in the UK and are over 18. It offers four weeks of work experience for entry level talent (those with no, or a year or less of filmmaking experience).This opportunity is paid. Early entrants will be paired with mid-level crew for training and mentoring to guide the next generation of filmmakers. &nbsp; Why are we doing SevenUp?We want the industry to be inclusive of everyone, and we recognise not everyone comes from the same starting point. We hope that SevenUp will be part of a larger chance for building a fairer film industry for all. &nbsp; How does it work?Applicants will be invited to apply for the programme via our website and social media with an expression of interest and attached cover letter and CV. The application will include a couple of questions to help us understand why you’re applying for the programme. Our final selection will be invited to an interview, and given a week of training (all expenses paid) before having four bankable weeks of production experience paid at national living wage. Accommodation for this period will also be covered. &nbsp; How will this lead to work?Whilst there is no guarantee of paid work after the programme, early entrants will have the opportunity to interview for the trainee programme after SevenUp, which offers up to a year of paid support and placements on our HBO, Warner Bros. Television, and Warner Bros. Features productions. &nbsp; When will this take place?Our applications for early entrants are now open with the opportunities due to take place in Summer. Applications close 26th May. &nbsp;&nbsp;Please include in your application that you found this role through Creative Access.
