Now, as part of plans to further grow the screen industry across West Yorkshire and support diverse communities accessing creative jobs, the region’s screen agency has launched their latest Skills Connect training programme. Screen Yorkshire’s Beyond Brontes: The Mayor’s Screen Diversity Programme is once again open for applications and will run a series of practical sessions over the summer months. The part-time skills initiative has supported more than 250 trainees since its inception in 2019.
Beyond Brontës is a fantastic programme which has broken down barriers to entry and enabled many people from our region to work on very high profile film and TV productions such as Bridgerton, The Witcher, Gentleman Jack and Mission Impossible 7. 'We are delighted to continue to deliver such a practical and empowering programme.” Now in its fifth year, Beyond Brontës is open to apply until noon on Friday, 17.
