Due to popular demand the ITV Loves Talent ScreenSkills CV Clinics are back but in a new format!

In these Meet the Talent Manager monthly sessions, Talent Managers from all over the industry will come together with ITV Loves Talent to meet with non-scripted freelancers and offer advice about careers and CVs.

Everyone joins on Zoom for introductions then break out rooms will be introduced to enable a 15 minute 1:1 advice. The Talent Managers taking part will be advertised in advance so freelancers can try and request the Talent Manager they would prefer to meet.  Those not in a meeting will be in another break out room with Cheryl, who will be on hand to answer any questions about anything including CV advice.

November's session is for Producers, Edit Producers and PDs and our Talent Managers are:

Lauren Evans (ITV Entertainment & Possessed) 

Julia Waring (RDF)

Simon Wright (Viacom)

Hattie Woods/Vicky Bennetts (Wall to Wall / Twenty Twenty)

Sue Kendline (Two Four)

Susie Worster (Freelance)

Zoe Russell-Stretten (Brinkworth TV)

Produced & Hosted by Cheryl Woodcock (ITV Entertainment & Possessed)
