Application Deadline: 21st May 2025


What To Expect:

These adverts will use a cinematic approach to connect with specific target demographics, considering City College Plymouth. Depending on the advert and your role, you will be acting to convey specific emotions and narratives relevant to that group. This could involve portraying a sense of anticipation, the determination to learn, the worry of making a big decision, or the joy of achievement, for example. While some scenes will be set within the college environment, the focus will be on capturing authentic emotional responses and compelling performances that resonate with the intended audience. Although the majority of filming will take place at City College Plymouth, there may also be opportunities for filming in diverse locations around Plymouth to enhance the storytelling. The final adverts will be crafted for a wide range of platforms, emphasising strong visual storytelling and impactful performances.
