Before this apprenticeship, I was planning on going to university but knew it didn’t feel like it was going to be the best fit for me. Applying for this apprenticeship at Channel 4 was definitely one of the best decisions of my life. Not only has it given me the confidence I needed to fully recognise my own talents, but it has also allowed me to begin developing them further to build towards a future career in something I’m passionate about.

I currently work as an apprentice within the Pictures Team at Channel 4 learning both the Picture Editor and Picture Commissioner role. I feel excited to go to work every day! I’m learning so much and have already taken part in some cool projects.

Being at Channel 4 has been a delight! I currently have been watching some fun shows and picking out clips that I think would make great content. With my role I also edit content and create images. In just 3 weeks I have managed to create and edit a video for Facebook. The people are so warm and welcoming, I have found it easier than I thought to fit in and I can’t thank my department enough.
