Trust us, you don't want to miss this discussion on why you should never go into a shoot without being properly covered. Tune in now!

As someone in the creative industry planning for the future can be difficult. Many do not have the luxury of a monthly steady paycheck, most have no idea how much they will make in 12 months, let alone in 3 years.

This inability to accurately forecast makes life extremely difficult when it comes to trying to get a mortgage or investing. Many creatives I speak to believe the idea of being on the property ladder is a distant dream, but it doesn’t have to be.

As a creative you have much of a right to invest, save and get on the property ladder as anyone else and it is possible. To help me explore this topic I was joined on this month’s Ampah’s Takeaway by Penny Dashfield & Alex Legget from Bevis Mark Private Investment, and Toby Carmichael- Jack an Independent Financial Advisor at Opal Financial Management.

We explore topics like best practices to help save and invest, what mortgage lenders want from you in order to offer a mortgage and the importance of a pension.

If sorting out your finances is your new year’s resolution, then you can’t miss this month’s episode of Ampah’s Takeaway.

At this year's Birmingham Film festival Nada Cirjanic chaired a fantastic panel chat where we discussed all things growth. Running a media business is not like any other business.

In this panel chat the fantastic Chris Filip talks about the BFI Global Screen Fund a fantastic initiative that aims to boost international development, production, distribution, and promotional opportunities for the UK’s independent screen sector.

We discuss how media companies can differentiate themselves from the competition and the ways in which they can raise finance not only for their productions but also for their companies.

An insightful panel chat and one that can not be missed.
