Nominate That Unsung Hero

The summer is drawing to a close (boo…), the days are starting to feel a tad colder (double boo…) so it can only mean one thing; it’s the start of the awards season.

Here at PB towers, we are delighted to announce that nominations are now open for this year’s Freelancer of the Year Awards. As in previous years, it’s a great opportunity to celebrate the talent of some of the unsung heroes in television and film production – we all know who they are; they do lots (and lots) of hard work, make things happen, always have a smile on their face and still have time for everyone else while their social life takes a back seat (well, more like the spare seat… in the boot).

There are four categories that cover the first jobber to the seasoned veteran so there’s no excuse for anyone to miss out…

Awarding Those Who Matter

This week PB’s Joe Mahoney gives a brief update on the forthcoming Freelancer of the Year Awards and networking event.

Many thanks to all the production companies and freelancers that have sent in their nominations to this year’s Freelancer of the Year Awards. The response has been fantastic and has made the selection process for the judges a real headache – but we wouldn’t want it any other way!

We are delighted to welcome on board our sponsor, Sony Professional Media, who have graciously offered up prizes worth a few thousand pounds to the category winners.

I think it’s important to remind people why we do this; so many production people miss out on the usual gongs that are handed out every year via the well established ceremonies. Of course, richly deserved though they are, many talented and hard working people simply don’t get a look in.
