Bit of a funny one this. I work effectively as a videographer (ie from start to finish, from storyboard, to shooting to editing) for a large institution but my contract will be up next year. I'm worked my way to this role within the institution, so I've always plight my video trade here.
Starting to think ahead to what's next with a good few months to spare and wondering if any of you has any word of advice as per where I could be offering my services?
While I have experience doing the work, I've never been inside :the industry" as it were and have no contacts in regards to freelance gigs or production companies who regularly hire videographers/editors, so making that step feels a bit daunting, if also quite exciting in many ways. Currently, the easiest scenario would be looking an in house job elsewhere, possibly using my experience of both social media-oriented and documentary style work within heritage as a selling point, but obviously that narrows the field significantly...
Bit of a ramble, but thought I'd put the feelers out as I'm sure many of you will have a broader view than I do. And of course, if anyone is in need of help with any project, I'm keen to start to broaden my scope as of now with a few side projects, so thought I'd put that out too :)
