We’re delighted to be partnering with Pym Productions on a 4-week traineeship working on a feature film at Pinewood Studios. The traineeship will run weekdays from Mon 25 Oct to Fri 19 Nov - please note this is subject to change depending on the running schedule of production. 

The traineeship is a paid role for young Londoners aged 18 – 24. This role will help you develop your camera skills, gain experience working on a real-life film set, and to build a network within the industry. As part of the role, you will have 6 months of free access to The Photographers’ Gallery Develop programme as well as receiving regular supportive check-ins with gallery staff. 

You will work closely alongside the feature film’s Stills Photographer to deliver a range of tasks including, downloading of media, photography of props and costumes and shadowing/assisting him on set.  We are looking for someone who has a passion for taking photographs and is looking to establish themselves as a photographer within the industry. This is an entry-level position and is open to anyone who feels they have enthusiasm, interest and drive to jump right in. Some experience of lighting and Photoshop would be advantageous but by no means essential.

£625 per week plus travel. Lunch is also included.

Please send your CV and answers to the 3 questions below to develop@tpg.org.uk.
