Here's how you can develop the essential skills for entry-level media production jobs.

Internships or shadowing in media production is invaluable if you get the opportunity. A lot of internship opportunities are only available if you are in a program that provides you the connection to a media business that accepts interns. If you can ask to shadow for a period of time sometimes that is allowed. If you can make a connection with someone who works at the business and they invite you for a tour or shadow opportunity that would be great too. Online learning or local seminars are other ways to "learn" the skills you may need. Networking to get those connections are a great way to get your foot in the door or a chair at the table.

You have to start with the fundamentals and not be afraid to make mistakes. People who are new to the industry always want to start at the top. How many times have I met people right out of school who tell me they are directors?! Learn the basics and be willing to not only learn from your mistakes, but also take criticism. That doesn’t mean having people yell at you and belittle you…it means to listen and figure out how you can improve. And entry level doesn’t have to last forever. Learn to write, learn to listen, learn how to communicate. Then you will be ready to take the next step.

An example, Get familiar with essential equipment like cameras, microphones, and lighting. You don’t need top-of-the-line gear; start with what you have.

You have to be humble and willing to make some concessions in order to get anywhere in this situation. Humble and honesty are equally important in a production environment. That said, hard work is the most effective to get ahead and grow, as you grow and have more added to your responsibilities and those opportunities offer the best way to get the growth needed to move up the food chain. This is coming from 10+ years of experience in starting at zero and climbing the ladder.

Creo que antes de la Ai hay que entender a editar de forma lineal. Hay que ir a los orígenes para lograr optimizar el tiempo, los recursos y las necesidades de la producción. Después manejar y ver la posibilidades de la edición no lineal, las capas, los efectos… y si, por último la IA que para eso está pero veo que la gente se lanza a hacer las casas por los tejados y así están las plataformas llenas de historias vacías, sin ritmo, sin gracia.

Como creador de contenido con a?os de experiencia, puedo confirmar que la creación de redes es realmente un pilar fundamental en esta industria. He visto de primera mano cómo las relaciones genuinas y colaborativas pueden transformar una carrera. No se trata solo de acumular contactos, sino de construir una comunidad donde se comparten ideas, se aprende unos de otros y se crece juntos. Ofrecerme de voluntario, aceptar invitaciones o colaborar en proyectos ha sido una de las formas más efectivas de fortalecer estas conexiones y, a menudo, ha resultado en oportunidades inesperadas y enriquecedoras.

Approach with humility, but lead at work. Prepare content and its domains thoroughly, so experts and celebrities follow your lead. This will help you build a network and establish your reputation. Maintain a good rapport with professionals, but avoid personal relationships until you've gained their full confidence.

attend events, join online forums, and engage on social media to build genuine relationships, collaborate on projects, and unlock mentorship and job opportunities.

Mentorship is vital. Chose carefully. Don’t invest in people you don’t believe in. There are crooks and idiots out there. The more you talk to people the better you will be at recognising them.

It’s sad that we have to invest so much time in sorting through the nonsense, but we do. Time will educate you on the people worth talking to.

Join someone who is already active in the industry and gain some practical experience and knowledge to make you understand how things work.
