FAQ

  • What degrees or qualifications do different courses offer?

    None of our trainings alone give qualifications for a particular job role.

    Instead, depending on the content they give the participants better awareness of other departments’ needs, an overview of the job and an understanding of how to do the work. Instead of having to learn everything on their first day in the job, they are given a skills-based overview of the work process to prepare them for the job.

    For more seasoned participants we’ve curated courses introducing new tools, personal tips and wider international perspective - as well as case studies, learnings and experiences from the productions we’ve worked in.

    Are all your courses in English?

    No, we also teach in Finnish - though majority of our materials is in English.

    If you’re participating our course outside Finland, it’s always in English. If you’re participating in Finland, check the course description for language info.

    What should I know prior to joining a course?

    Read through the given information and make sure you’ve got your tools and softwares ready to go if needed on the course. We always specify what do we expect you to bring with you.

    We follow safer space guidelines on all our courses. Participating one will require you to commit to the same guidelines yourself.

    When are your next courses? How can I apply or sign in?

    We’re working with many different collaboration partners for our courses. This means some of the courses are closed, some are open for signing in. This depends on the funders and the collaboration partners.

    Whenever we have an upcoming open course confirmed we’ll have all the details available on our webpage. Sign up for our newsletter or leave your details through our contact page to make sure we get in touch with you directly when news are published.

  • What do your courses and workshops cost?

    It depends how are you participating. If our course is part of your study program in a school or university, it’s included in your studies and possible tuition fee.

    If you’re participating through a company or as an individual our fees depend on the course content, sponsors and collaborators. Fees are specified in the course descriptions - through the page used to sign in or apply.

  • I’m looking for an internship in film. Can you help?

    We do not offer internships but are happy to give you tips on a coffee break if you’re joining our courses!

    I would like to shadow one of you during your next production. Is this possible?

    Send us an email and we’ll look into it.

  • Were you in charge of BBG AD Bootcamp?

    Yes, our AD Bootcamps organised in collaboration with Blockbuters Gang have been called BBG AD Bootcamps from 2022 to early 2024. We’re still working with them on Finnish trainings when having any!
