Building A Successful Career In Film - April 20th
Building A Successful Career In Film
is a new seminar by Chris Jones, author of
The Guerilla Film
Makers Handbook and veteran
feature film maker.
‘Have you ever wondered why it’s been taking so long to get your career moving? I know I did when I started out. Even when I made incredible advances, like making a feature film at 21, somehow I didn’t seem to get the forward momentum I thought I would.
Do YOU know what to do next week? Next month? Next year? And beyond? These are questions I thought I had good answers for, but I was always unaware of where I was really 'at' in my career, and the effect was like trying to jog on sand… exhausting, slow going and frustrating! I have since found that the people who achieve real success often get the 'big picture' very early.
You know, there is
what you know
you know... there is what you know you don’t know...
but it’s what you don’t know that you don’t know that
gets you... And often it’s the simplest things… And I intend
to share with you the steps you need to take in order to
achieve success in film...’
Chris Jones
This intensive half day seminar is a powerful and completely new strategy for creative people who want to accelerate their ambitions. It’s a structured ABC of what to do, when to do it and what it will mean to your long term dreams.
Says Chris, ‘I spent a year or so thinking about
this seminar. I have seen many film makers make the same
mistakes that I made, over and over again… And I realised
that no-one had ever sat down and written down the simple
steps you need to go through in order to launch a successful
career in film… Not even the best film schools in the world
seem to teach this. So I wrote those steps down, researched
lots of other film makers who were successful, and finally
put this event together…’
At the heart of the seminar is a five step plan that details exactly what you should be doing, how you should be doing it, and how you can fund it. And also why you will probably fail if you do not successfully pass through each stage, recognise that passage and adjust your plans and attitudes for the next stage…

Notes on Attending and Accommodation
1.
Ealing Studios can normally accommodate parking at
weekends, but there are no guarantees. If there is
no onsite parking there are several roads behind the
studios where you can park. So far we have never
turned anyone away. The nearest tube stop is Ealing
Broadway, which is on the District and Central
Lines. The Piccadilly Line is also close with South
Ealing tube stop. A map of the local area is
here.
2. Kick off is 12pm on Sunday April 20th.
3. Before attending it’s a good idea to think about
what you want out of the course. If you have any
areas where you want to ask questions, make a list.
Don’t rely on remembering as information can come
thick and fast over the two days.
4. The course discussion ends at around 6.00pm,
depending on how many questions have been asked
during the day.
Accommodation
If you can rough it, £10 a night buys you a bed in a
