Sixth Form Career Events

Sky Studios

On 17th September 2024 the Year 13 Film and Media students visited Sky Studios Elstree where they were able to make and edit their very own short film. Students completed a masterclass beforehand where they came up with a short film idea, film name and characters and were able to bring their film to life using Sky Studios multimillion pound XR equipment. Once the students had filmed their 3 scenes in front of a screen, they were able to use the camera equipment to seek the right angles, close ups and then edit the film.

It was a great opportunity to learn about the many careers and apprenticeship opportunities there are working within Sky and the industry in general.

Year 13 student, Henry comments about his Sky Studios Experience  

 “My experience at Sky Studios Elstree was very enjoyable and very informative. At Sky Studios we went into a state-of-the-art mini sized studio where we went through the stages of pre-production of our short film and then filmed it. After we filmed our short film, we edited it which included cutting the scenes to our liking and adding background music and sound effects. I enjoyed my experience at Sky Studios and was impressed with all the technology and equipment I got to use.”
