Are you free next Monday? Come to the GTC Wildlife Workshop
The good news is that GTC members are busy working. The slightly bad news is that we now unexpectedly have a couple of free spaces on our Meet the Wildlife Filmmakers workshop.
This great day out on Monday 28 June at The Avon Wildlife Trust near Bristol promises to be a goldmine of information
for all – both experienced and newer to the game – who would like to learn from the experts about filming and putting wildlife programmes together, as well as the specialist techniques involved.
The outstanding list of tutors includes:
* Top wildlife cameraman John Waters
* Timelapse and motion control expert Tim Shepherd
* Mike Salisbury OBE (producer of five David Attenborough series)
* Karen Partridge (producer of many acclaimed wildlife series)
This is such a great line-up, it would be a crying shame if a single place went unfilled so if you find you are now available on Monday, do take advantage of this opportunity to sign up for an amazing day out in the country. Where else can you get tuition of this calibre completely free of charge apart from through membership of the GTC?
To book a space, contact Clive North on: workshops.07@gtc.org.uk
