  • Chase - Assistant Producer, BBC Natural History Unit
    2022/08/03

    Chase has always had dual passions in wildlife and creativity and as a child they would make films impersonating Steve Irwin! Chase went on to study Zoology at the Universities of Exeter and Calgary, whilst exploring the arts during any spare time they had. They only became aware of the roles and career opportunities in Natural History Filmmaking through the Creative Access Internship Scheme - and soon realised that they wanted to create a flourishing career in this industry.

    We met just over a year ago when I was working at Wildscreen to help launch their Emerging Talent Scheme and I had sourced Chase as a speaker. I’ve basically ripped off the bio I wrote for them back then for this podcast! Anyway, we followed each on the gram and kinda got to know each that way, we met for dinner ahead of this recording and I now consider them to be a friend.

    Their top 3 KIRS:

    1️⃣ Unlearning is just as important as learning

    2️⃣ Your differences are your greatest strengths

    3️⃣ Don’t forget to enjoy the view

  • Fatima - Managing Director, Naked Television (Fremantle)
    2022/07/27

    I met Fatima through the amazing Wonder Women in TV mentoring programme where I was lucky enough to be selected as a mentee in 2021 and Fatima was one of the mentors. She delivered a talk for us which was so inspiring that I was compelled to send her an email telling her so. I welled up so many times when she spoke to us mentees because I could really relate to her. She has got to where is today without the bank of mum and dad, having not gone to uni (although I did for free - thanks to a government grant) and she is from a South Asian background - all of these things could have gone against her but she made sure that they didn’t.  

    Her 3 KIRs (She calls them her x3 ‘F’s are:

    1️⃣ Family & Faith

    2️⃣ Friends

    3️⃣ Future
