This is what happens when Media Production and Acting students meet 🤝

Recently our FdA Film, Media and TV Production students teamed up with BA (Hons) Acting for Stage and Screen students to create professional audition tapes and showreels.

This project gave both groups hands-on, real-world experience that goes beyond the classroom. For our film students, it was a chance to refine their technical skills behind the camera, while our acting students got to shine on screen, showcasing their talent. In the end, both sets of students end up with high-quality work to add to their portfolios, helping them stand out to future employers.

At Newcastle College, we’re all about encouraging collaboration across disciplines. Why?
🗣 Collaborating across courses gives students the chance to build their professional networks
🎭 Working together encourages creativity and innovation, leading to unique and high-quality projects
🌍 Students experience the dynamics of a professional production environment, preparing them for the realities of the industry

What about you? Would you prefer to be in front of the screen, or behind it?
