W: Hello and welcome to Trend UK. Creative industries often attract young people who feel naturally drawn to them, in the hope that they can make their mark, their fortune or both, whilst expressing themselves in their chosen field. That’s the dream but what are the realities? Today we have invited a film and video editor to share his feelings with us. Welcome, Mr. Jones.
M: Thank you.
W: What is it like working in a creative industry here in the UK?
M: It can be fantastic. Everything has highs and lows I think. But the highs can be particularly high. I’ve worked on a variety of projects. Last year I worked on "Nanny McPhee" which was a relatively large Hollywood film.
W: And do you have to work long hours?
M: Fourteen-, fifteen-, sixteen-hour days, it’s not unusual. There are limits set within the law, but you usually do whatever is required to get the material in the can.
W: What about the social side of things? Do you have time to go out much?
M: In terms of meeting people, it’s a very mixed bag. I often work on my own, so I’m very effective. I’m directing myself doing camera work and then I’ll go and edit. I’m completely on my own for days at a time working on a project. On other projects which are much more collaborative, you meet an awful lot of people, and obviously you’ve got a lot in common with some of them. I’ve developed really good relationships that you could call friendships. So yeah, socially it can be great.
W: Thank you for joining us, Mr. Jones.
M: My pleasure.
