WHAT OUR TALENTED TRAINEES SAY ABOUT US
"Working with Creative Sparkworks has been a blessing during a really tough time to be entering the industry.The tutors have expertise spanning multiple genres and specialities and a backlog of amazing contacts they are willing to leverage to help you get the best support available. Their advice and investment in my development were truly invaluable and a huge boost to my confidence. As a result of contacts made through Creative Sparkworks, I was able to secure work as a Location Marshal on a high-end commercial for Iconoclast.”

“My time with Creative Sparkworks gave me the resources, understanding and support I needed to get me my first big job in scripted TV.
I joined as the first lockdown was starting and the people at Sparkworks helped keep me motivated and ready for when things opened up again.
Without them I wouldn’t be where I am now, their support and knowledge has been invaluable in helping me get started in the Film and TV industry.”

“Because of the amazing partnerships cultivated by the program, I was able to apply to Sara Putt Associates, a highly regarded recruitment agency.
It is solely through this process that I was able to secure an amazing role at an exceptional production company. Within 6 months I found a job and have now started working at a great rate (higher than usual for this type of role).
I would recommend this program to anyone.”

“When I joined Sparkworks, I was at the crossroads.
I jumped on the last ship, it was actually the last meeting I’ve had before the lockdown kicked off in March.
You provided a lifeline & training remotely, which resulted in paid work in my sector of choice, so thanks a lot .”

“I can’t express how much Sparkworks has helped me.
A year ago I was struggling to even get an interview…. it was nice knowing that someone is out there rooting for me. It pushes you to do more as you want to succeed in this course.
You realise that in this industry everyone knows everyone so it’s all about keeping a good rep.
What was also super helpful was the ready set training. It prepared me for my most recent job as a floor runner. The radio language, production table, location info, CV and cover letter tips and so much more.
Working on set stay focus, quick on your feet, be very social with every department Oh! and learn people’s names (takes me forever but by the end you know everyone ).”

“The experience overall was a fantastic insight into Live Production whilst abiding by the new COVID rules set; 2 meter distance, sanitising, temperature checks and cleaning surfaces.
A huge thank you to Creative Sparkworks, I wouldn’t have had this opportunity if they hadn’t pushed me to keep going.”
