Hello!
My name is Sam and I have been brought in to work over the next few months as a freelance Talent Manager for BSLBT. The aim of this role is to build a bridge between the off-screen talent (directors, producers, camera operators, production managers, etc.) and production companies working for BSLBT or elsewhere, who are looking for deaf crew members.
While BSLBT will not be responsible for finding opportunities/work for you, we are happy to talk about possible options for those who wish to develop themselves and sustain a career in TV.
We are building a database of deaf and hard-of-hearing crew members so if you work in TV behind camera, please complete the following registration form and I will then get in touch with you as soon as possible:
If you are new to TV and do not know where to start, you are welcome to complete the registration form and I can then get in touch to talk more about this.
Over time, BSLBT aim to set up training schemes, career progression schemes, workshops, networking events, etc. to support the development, and network, of the pool of off-screen deaf talent. So, watch this space!
Please feel free to send any questions that you may have about the registration form or anything related to working in TV to talent@bslbt.co.uk.
