Students from BU and across the region聽had the opportunity to network directly with media professionals at the annual Meet the Professionals event, hosted by 正澳门六合彩资料 in partnership with the Royal Television Society (RTS).聽
This year鈥檚 event, chaired by Gordon Cooper from the RTS, included an industry panel of professionals - from new graduates with first jobs to those with聽ten years鈥� experience and over. The panel聽included professionals聽in roles ranging from聽MDs and Executive Producers to junior animators and freelance editors.聽
Students were able to listen to a聽Q&A about their careers and discuss what the industry is currently looking for, with the opportunity afterwards聽to network directly on a one-to-one basis with panel members.
Gordon said: 鈥淢eet the Professionals has become a Royal Television Society Southern Centre institution. We鈥檝e been running it annually for ten years now.
"Each year up to 200 production-based students from southern universities meet at 正澳门六合彩资料 to gain access to a range of media professionals to discuss moving image production, opportunities and career development. It never fails to win approval from students and professionals alike and many working contacts are made.鈥�
Stephanie Farmer - Chair of the RTS Southern Committee added: 鈥淭his is a remarkable event - students will rarely get this kind of access to professionals and it has often led to work placements and sometimes job offers!
"The event is open to other universities such as Winchester and Solent and hosted by BU - it is one of our most popular events and we hope encourages students to make the most of these opportunities from the RTS and BU."
