✏️Social media can be a great place to hear about Film & TV opportunities and keep up to date with industry news 🗞️I’ve put together a quick🧵with some accounts to follow (production companies, broadcasters, initiatives, news etc) as a starting point. Feel free to add…📺
This is by no means an exhaustive list, it’s very much a starting point which will hopefully help populate your Twitter algorithm full of Film & TV. Do feel free to add to the thread with anyone I have missed ✏️ #ScreenwritingTwitter

🎬✏️ A student asked me this week what they can be doing now to expand their knowledge of the Film & TV industry to stand them in good stead for applying for roles when they finish their studies. It was a great question so here is a thread with some ideas 💡💡#filmjobs #tvjobs

The question I get asked most at the unrepped writer surgeries I run for @50Comedy50 is how to go about securing representation. I thought it might be useful to share my response to that question here. All views are my own & based on my own experiences etc etc (see thread).
Be targeted in who you approach & do research. If you are a brand new it might be best to write to an assistant who is starting to build their list as they will have more capacity (that’s how I started out). That information might not be available online so you may have to dig!
I’d personally suggest initially targeting one person at each agency, as some agencies share their enquiries internally so if all of a sudden everyone has had the same email it might cause confusion.
