Corporate Training


DFG is the UK’s leading provider of industry-focussed training and  a member of the Skillset Media Academy Network; an elite group of institutions that have been identified by Skillset on behalf of the UK television and interactive industries as Centres of Excellence in creative media education and training.

We provide bespoke training and consultancy services to and on behalf of UK and overseas organisations as diverse as Channel 4, ITV, the Rory Peck Trust, Sony Europe, Maverick TV and Islamic Relief. We are happy to discuss how we might help to deliver your organisation’s specific objectives.  

Corporate training
DFG works with broadcasters, production companies and organisations to upskill employees, inject fresh thinking into their current practice, and train them in the fundamentals of documentary filmmaking. Perhaps your production managers need to get to grips with setting up shoots in foreign and hostile environments, or managing CGI projects. Or maybe your charity wants to start making in-house documentaries to promote your cause.

DFG will work with you to develop a bespoke training programme to suit your current training needs, find the most suitable tutor from its bank of industry professionals and run a course that will ensure you achieve your organisation’s goals.

Recent bespoke courses we have run include:
•    Advanced visual story-telling
•    Story structure
•    Scripting for documentary
•    Production Management
•    Commentary writing
•    Editing (Avid and FCP)
•    Researching for documentary
•    Marketing and distribution

Consultancy
DFG is experienced in providing consultancy services to broadcasters and production companies, in the UK and overseas. It might be that your organisation is starting up, or that you need to refresh current practice. Our experienced consultants will provide the strategic counsel and practical advice you need to start producing innovative factual programming.
