Networking + Relationships

I just came to say Hello

Making connections and building a network of contacts is essential in freelance work. This can happen at work with your peers as you expand your contacts with colleagues, at events such as festivals, filmmaking competitions, in training programs and in online communities. 

Many opportunities are secured through word of mouth, so your reputation and visibility is an important factor when you are seeking work. 

Whether you are pitching your own ideas or looking for work on that next feature film, networking is a critical part of the process. Learn more about networking here.
