My PDAP Story: Manhattan Edit Workshop

June 07, 2019/ Blue Collar

I first heard about the Blue Collar Post Collective Facebook group from my editing instructor Cara Friez at Point Park University. I joined the BCPC group about two years into my education because I developed an interest in pursuing a post-production career after college. BCPC is a great resource for individuals wanting a career in post-production. The organization is extremely useful for making connections with others in various cities along with job posts, helpful knowledge, and supportive conversations. As you are beginning a career in the industry it can be challenging to understand how to find work. Organizations like BCPC can provide support and help you succeed with your career in the industry. Success is predominantly about having a strong network and developing new connections with other filmmakers.

I used it to secure a job in one of the most competitive industries on the planet.
