UK - Production Futures, the organisation founded to create opportunities for young people to learn, train, network and develop real careers in every sector of the production industries, has announced a collaboration with KitPlus Show.
KitPlus Show’s long-standing affiliation with colleges and universities aligns closely with the Production Futures mission, as event director Matt Snow explains:
“We already work closely with further and higher education institutions across the UK, delivering paid training and unique hands-on experience for students and graduates in front of and behind the camera at our shows. By collaborating with Production Futures, who share our vision of creating opportunities for young people to learn, train, network and build careers, we can combine our skills and experience to really address the issues currently facing our industry - most especially where the next generation of talent is concerned.”
KitPlus and Production Futures will benefit from having a presence at each other’s shows - the new collaboration will launch at the upcoming Production Futures On Tour show on 15 October at the Backstage Centre in Purfleet where KitPlus will have a presence, followed by a reciprocal promotion at the KitPlus Show at MediaCity, Manchester which takes place on 24 October. Production Futures will be exhibiting and supporting important industry panel discussions within the KitPlus seminar programme.
