Our GILIL Academy is committed to training, mentoring and supporting young people in their first steps into the creative and cultural industries.
Digital Production
We work with groups of young people to document gigs via video interviews, photography, blogging and social media. Young people are trained in different media disciplines, both practical/technical skills including the theory and processes. They use this training to interview the artists, photograph the gigs, run social media campaigns, blog reviews and much more.
The workshops and on-the-job experience provide our young people with a grounding in media skills and work experience that they can use to create a portfolio of work for themselves in order to apply for future training or, in some cases, their first steps into the industry.
Arts Management
We work with individual young people to mentoring them in skills related to the behind-the-scenes roles in the arts and cultural industries. This includes managing and running cultural activities and live music events, marketing and PR skills, engaging with audiences, evaluation and monitoring processes, project administration and much more.
Through one-to-one mentoring and learning on the job, our young people are gain expertise specifically related to the arts sector and creative and cultural industries, as well as a range of transferable skills (i.e. communication, time management etc.) that are useful for other career paths.
