Dv Talent

DV Talent is a media resources company that provides three essential services: Develop Talent: Training The Talent Manager: Crew The Kit Room: Broadcast Equipment Our Develop Talent training ethos is simple – but pioneering: That our training would be firmly based around the realities of production, so that what our trainees learnt would be of immediate value to their working lives; That storytelling is what our industry is about - so all our courses are as much about the editorial, the craft of storytelling, as the technical. After all, there's limited value in knowing what buttons to push on a camera, if you have no idea of how to direct; That the tutors were all leading figures in their field: active and acclaimed filmmakers It didn’t take a big leap to realise that the industry could do with a kit hire company that had the backing and expert support of some of the country’s leading filmmakers, and that was tuned into the ever-shifting needs of freelancers and productions, so we created The Kit Room. And where does The Talent Manager fit into all this? Just as the industry evolves, so have we. As more and more companies recruited talent managers, the role of our agency changed. So we changed too. There was, we found, a real need for a central online meeting place for production companies and freelancers to exchange information about their upcoming jobs and productions, credits and availability, in a way that reflected the realities of production better than existing jobs' boards or generic social media sites. And, so far, so good. The Talent Manager has become the 'go to' resource for hundreds of production companies, and has more than 50,000 registered freelancers. The media is about storytelling. We facilitate that process: We help find the people with the right vision and craft. We help those people develop their skills and therefore their vision. We provide the tools needed to execute that vision.
