What is the Drive Thru?

Location Routes Drive Thru is about bringing pop-up events and training to regions across the UK that don’t always get the support needed to grow local crew. They are open to anyone 18+ and you don’t have to have any experience or credits. You can pop in for however long you want to stay for. Registration is essential.

What is it?

We are looking for film offices and screen commissioners who would be interest in supporting our “Drive Thru” concept across the UK. This will take place in various locations across the UK in early 2026. This involves setting up an Ezup gazebo (with a table) in a council-owned car park for one day (daytime), where we’ll give out information about careers in Locations, Production & Assistant Directors Departments. We want to inspire and engage with new people across the UK to become runners & Location marshalls and join our “Green Room” talent agency where they have their own webpage. We will be doing 1-1 CV clinics sessions and practical learning activities like how to set up an Ezup and make-up mirror. We have our own PL insurance and will not leave any rubbish onsite.

Whom is it aimed at?

People whom are interested in media and creative arts particularly Film & TV. We are looking to help and support those whom might not get the opportunities to work in this industry. We also hope parents and family members will attend, as it’s a great opportunity to learn about the world of filming and what the industry involves.

What we need from you?

A suggestion of a suitable location for our Drive Thru (provided in-kind) and promote through your social media, newsletter and any local groups. We will share on our own website and channels.
