This course is aimed at those looking to start or kick-start their careers in film & television production. It's run by me - Adam Carrel - a professional of twenty years who has worked all over the world for WWE, BBC, Sky, Champions League Football and more.
The course will cover:
cameras
sound
lighting
cabling
streaming
live switching
directing
and more! Students do not need to bring any equipment as it is all provided.
Break Into TV
I can't guarantee you a job in Film & TV. What I can tell you is that students of mine have went on to land jobs travelling the world doing what they love. See for yourself:
Thomas and Rory completed my course before travelling to India for a week-long job. Thomas went on to shoot a huge boxing press-conference in Saudi Arabia.
Rory went on to land a job with Hawk-Eye filming professional tennis around the world. This is him in California.
Ryan completed my course and then had the confidence to apply for roles he hadn't before. He's now a full-time freelance camera operator working regularly on professional football and basketball.
Paul (first from right) completed my course and then came with me to New Delhi for a week to shoot professional wrestling.
Why This Workshop?
The truth is, most people trying to break into TV fail. Not because they don’t care enough — but because no one shows them the basics like:
How to handle cables.
How to communicate on set
What all those buttons on a camera actually do!
The equipment you really MUST have on your first jobs
This course strips away the guesswork and gives you the tools to succeed. Let me help you avoid the mistakes I made!
Who’s Teaching You?
I’ve worked in TV for almost 20 years:
Champions League Football
WWE
BBC, Sky, major live events
I’ve travelled the world doing what I love — but I made every mistake along the way. Now I’m giving you the shortcut I wish I had when I started.
What You’ll Learn
We’ll cover everything that gets you hired and re-hired:
Cables, connectors, and set etiquette
Cameras, lenses, sound, and lighting
Shot types, framing, focus
On-set behaviour that separates professionals from amateurs
What are you waiting for?
You don't need to have any experience at all to do this workshop. You just need the will to learn. This workshop can be a great first step into furthering your career in Film & TV.
