A good many months ago, I met with the execs at Touchpaper Television in relation to my application for the Channel 4 ‘Coming Up’ scheme… Heard nothing for a while so I was very excited to find out that I’d been shortlisted for the workshops earlier this month. The next stage involved taking part in a 2 day workshop – where I was paired with different writers on various short exercises and met some experienced tv directors and producers – offering words of wisdom on working in television.
They had to cut the list from 14 to 7, but after a nail-biting weekend of waiting and hoping, I got the good news today that I’ve been accepted onto the scheme for Coming Up 2013 and will work with the brilliantly talented writer and fellow NFTS graduate Regina Moriarty. This is about the best news I’ve had all year! Very, very happy…
Roll on 2013!
