An actress and a director for radio and television

Once you have the educational background, gaining practical experience is essential. Many aspiring directors begin as production assistants or interns at radio and television stations. This hands-on experience allows you to understand the day-to-day functions of a production set, interact with various departments, and develop a network of industry contacts. It’s during these early roles that you will gain a sense of how the different pieces of the production puzzle come together.
