Locations Trainee opportunity
Date Posted: May 11, 2021
Northern Ireland Screen is running a skills development scheme called Production, Craft and Technical Skills 2021. The scheme will provide training opportunities in varied roles in the film and television industry between February 20221 – March 2022.
Production, Craft and Technical Skills 2021 is a paid placement scheme (NMW/NLW) and the participants will gain experience on Northern Ireland Screen funded film and television projects.
We are currently looking for a Locations Trainee. The successful candidate will help the Location Manager and Unit Manager with the day-to-day running of a production set/site. They will assist with cordoning off areas with the Location Marshals or Security Guards and guide the crew to where to park on location. They will help set up green rooms, tents and areas for holding supporting artists. The Locations Trainee will pick up litter, empty bins and generally keep the set/site clean & tidy.
The Locations Trainee makes sure the locations vans are stocked with stationery, snacks, torches, batteries, traffic cones, signs and all the other things that are needed on a shoot.
When filming has ended, they help pack up and leave the site as it was found. They are often the first on set and last to leave each day.
