BECTU survey says 75% of film and TV worker are out of work, This is nothing new. With 4K phone cameras in every pocket, multiple media platforms like TikTok and Youtube etc. the film & TV 'industry' is an obsolete model. There are opportunities for people with film and TV skills with Artificial Intelligence. (and I'm not just saying that because I am in that business - I was also a film maker) If you know how to compose a picture - you are going to be able to get better results from AI. If you know how to tell a story you will get better results from AI. All sectors are being upended and legacy models are changing, but the skills that creative professionals have are very important to get the best result and discover new products and services that markets will need. So get training on LLM and GAI.

Very sad to read these personal stories. Earlier this year I was part of the unscripted Bectu team who declared the situation in TV and film an emergency. It’s not just about people’s finances, it’s their hard-won careers, their pride - and of course it’s about the future of the industry as good people leave. I know things wlll get better - I am an optimist- but I also know this year has been so tough for so many and it would be wrong to ignore that. Good to see it getting wider coverage.

The life of a TV freelancer is a hard long-term relationship to handle. The highs of creating content with teams of talented engaged individuals is addictive but the lows of wondering, between contracts, if you’re good enough, limited career progression and support and lack of transparency around recruitment decisions compared to ‘staff’ jobs can be career limiting. And that’s before the current crisis in the industry. How can we support programme makers better?

Award-Winning Executive Producer, Author, Show Runner, Director, Consultant//I make highly-rated content that finishes on time and on budget//I develop talent//Listening is leading//craig@colbyvision.net
“It feels to me like I’m grieving, TV has been a massive part of my character. When it’s taken away, you feel like you’re not yourself.” This article about the lack of work in the television industry is set in Britain, but it could be about Canada, the United States, or anywhere. In the last few months I've heard from a top researcher who is not doing well because the phone stopped ringing and his calls are ignored, two people who have lost jobs they've had for the better part of a decade, a producer who worked on a doc for 5 years and made just $40,000, and a producer doing a survey of his contacts to see what the hell happened in our industry. People are scared. Along with the terrifying loss of income comes the depressing hit to identity. Creative jobs become part of your soul. Our industry is facing a mental health crisis as well as a financial one. I have heard digital producers say these are the shockwaves of a dying industry, and have hailed the democratization of YouTube content. Perhaps. Some of the digital content succeeds by commenting on our work. We're still part of that ecosystem. This is not the part of the post where I suggest a solution or attempt to say something inspiring. I don't have any answers. Despite having two great years, my future is uncertain. I'm scared too. I just think it's important that we acknowledge where we are right now in our industry. Our people are hurting so let's be kind to each other. Call a friend who has gone silent. Go for a walk with a colleague in a similar situation. And for mercy's sake, if you have a job, don't ghost the people looking for work. Civility and honesty cost nothing. Pick up the phone and be as truthful as you can about what's going on. You may be in the same situation before you know it. We need each other now more than ever.

Happy Fri-Yay! This month, we're excited to shine the spotlight on Alex Arnott, our amazing Channel Manager for PEDESTRIAN TELEVISION. What is your role at PG? Channel Manager for PEDESTRIAN TELEVISION Tell us about your journey at PG. I came from a TV programming background, and was brought to PG to establish their own telly channel, our glorious chaotic child PEDESTRIAN TELEVISION. I got to throw myself into so many areas of TV work that have in past workplaces been separated into different departments. Things like acquisitions, product, marketing, producing, booking talent, and, my personal nemesis, classifications. What is the favourite part about working for PG? Being amongst people who get it! The collective knowledge of the PG staff is next level, and it ranges from knowing intuitively who Charli is singing about on Brat, to the best anime series of the past 6 months, to the editorial teams knowing stuff about the economy or whatever. Everyone knows their shit back to front, and are so willing to share their expertise to get the best possible results. So, lame but true, it's the people. What is your proudest moment at PG? Launching a channel is pretty epic, especially being the first FAST channel for 9Now. But my personal favourite was organising the most kick-ass talent show to farewell one of our colleagues. Is that bad to say? What advice do you have for prospective PG candidates? Stand out! Figure out what you know down & work out how to communicate it, no matter what role you're applying for. The projects everyone works on can vary so much, so find out what you can add and then sell sell sell, bb! And don't wear a suit to the interview, you'll stress out the creatives. #employeespotlight #culture #media #Pedestriantelevision
