Where our 2025 alumni are now

The best measure of a programme isn't its intake — it's what happens two, three, five years later. Here's a short check-in with five of our 2025 alumni.

Marcus is directing music videos out of a small production collective in South London. Two of his videos crossed a million plays this year. He credits the camp's late-night editing sessions for teaching him how to work on a real deadline.

Jada is in her first year of a documentary programme at the London College of Communication, on a full bursary. She's already been hired as a second AC on a feature doc shooting in Ghana this winter.

Tomi runs a youth podcast collective in Manchester with 8,000 monthly listeners. He came through the Digital Media Academy in 2023 and now mentors our current cohort.

Ade is working as a runner-turned-assistant-editor on a returning Channel 4 series. Nia sold her first short to an online distributor this spring.

Five stories, five very different paths. All started with the same question: what if this could be a career, not a hobby?
