A fantastic day was had by all at the ITVAcademy Access All Areas day at ITV Leeds. Students from Making Creativity Works were invited along to gain valuable experience and an insight into departments and roles within ITV.
Students met with the Commercial team, the Emmerdale post production team, the Content Delivery team, took part in an Archive Tour and got to watch a Calendar News transmission.

Thank you ITVAcademy for such a valuable experience.

And that's a wrap! for Cohort 4 on Making Creativity Works. Students have been taking part in a week long intensive training programme to learn basic and advanced skills in camera, editing and studio presenting. Many of the students started the week by picking up a camera for the first time and it ended with them making a TV programme.
Well done Cohort 4. You've been amazing!
We can't wait to see what you do next 👏👏👏

And that's a wrap for Cohort 3 on the Making Creativity Works training programme.

Over the past few months students have taken part in a variety of introductory and advanced screen skills modules including camera, edit and presentation skills.

For their final session, students took part in an employability skills lesson delivered by Conor and Trixie from ITV Recruitment who showed the learners how to write the perfect cv and hone their interview skills.

And as an extra special surprise, Weather Presenter Ross Hutchinson gave a guided tour around the newsroom, studio and an insight into his role at ITV Tyne Tees.

We were delighted to be invited to the very first ITVAcademy Access All Areas tour. Students from our Making Creativity Works training programme were amongst 15 young people interested in working in TV behind the scenes at the ITV offices and studios in Leeds.
We visited Emmerdale Hair & Makeup room, Costume stores and the Props & Scenery, AD departments and we even got to go in the Woolpack!
We also visited ITV Calendar News & Weather to watch a weather bulletin being put together before moving onto the ITV Archive to learn about the history of ITV and tour the vast tape & film library.
It was a wonderful opportunity for our Making Creativity Works learners and we're proud to be part of the ITV Academy.
