After more than three fulfilling years working in digital advertising, Ryan is transitioning his career to work in the Locations department for film production.
He began this process by completing the Film & TV Location Assistant Intensive Training Course with Liverpool Locations. This included training on location department responsibilities, set etiquette, scouting, and practical equipment tutorials, followed by work experience on Hollyoaks.
Ryan’s passion for locations began with the Certificate in Filmmaking at NFTS in 2021. Previously, he worked extensively in amateur theatre, managing over thirty shows in various roles, including producer and stage manager.
Since 2021, he has worked in digital advertising, running campaigns for BT, EE, Shell and Coca-Cola. This experience developed skills in communication, team management, and financial literacy – key for Location Management.
Ryan is adept at managing high-pressure environments with tight deadlines, always aiming to create an organised and supportive team atmosphere that seeks to push the envelope of what’s possible.
He is now seeking opportunities as a Runner and Location Marshal to further his experience.
