Do you work as an HETV producer, line producer, production manager or production coordinator? Would you like to gain a better understanding of post-production and current practices, technology, terminology and work flows? This short course will give you the opportunity to refresh your knowledge, ask any questions and help you to budget, schedule and work with post-production in mind from prep right through to delivery.

This programme is funded by the ScreenSkills High-end Television Fund made up of contributions from high-end TV productions made in the UK. Delivered by NFTS Scotland and Post Super, working together in partnership with UK post-production facilities such as Gorilla Post-Production in Cardiff and Blazing Griffin in Glasgow, the course is taught by leading industry professionals.

For Scotland: Details of the Glasgow course will be published soon.

This comprehensive training programme is a practical, industry-informed course designed to take production professionals - including Producers, Line Producers, and Production Managers - through the entire post-production journey, from pre-production planning to final delivery.

The course aims to address gaps in knowledge and understanding between production and post-production, fostering more effective and collaborative working relationships between them. It also directly responds to the skills shortage in post-production knowledge among production roles, particularly the need for greater understanding of how early-stage decisions affect downstream post workflows.

We will walk through best practices for HETV, filling in gaps of knowledge for picture, sound and VFX, as well as budgeting, scheduling and how to meet your delivery requirements. Alongside this we will cover communication, leadership, negotiation and relationship management, in the specific context of the post- production process. The course combines live online sessions, an in-person day at a post-production facility, and flexible self-paced e-learning modules to support diverse learning styles and reinforce key knowledge.

By the end of the course, participants will be fluent in post-production terminology, understand the function and responsibilities of key post roles, and feel confident navigating technical workflows.
