The Internet

The Internet is a good source of potential work as there are many sites to which you can subscribe to display your CV and showreel to attract potential clients. Likewise, there are sites advertising job vacancies and calling for freelancers within the media industry.

There is a lot of support for new independent producers on-line and some of the organisations that offer advice, information, funding and training are listed below. Advice is not only available for new independent producers, but for media professionals across the industry.

Personal or company websites are now essential in order to attract clients, particularly if you are a new media producer. It seems today that without a website you are not seen as being on the map.
