Hey Christopher, thank you so much for your time and detailed explanation, I will love to ask some personal questions regarding my application if you can give me the audience. thank you
Hi Chris, this video is awesome. I’ve got a question regarding academic work. I am a Music Director/Keyboardist who’s worked at multiple conservatoires after studying at a separate university. Being hired as an outside professional rather than studying at the conservatories, would this still count as academic work that I can’t use for media recognition?

Good question. Teachers/lecturers in education are ineligible disciplines according to page 37 of the guideline, however on page 18 it says being employed to lead workshops/master classes may be allowed. Those two seem to conflict so I’d email the arts council to clarify. You can email me at [email protected] for more personal questions or want to hear more about how I can help you with your situation.

I really truly do not care about actors losing their jobs 90% of them nowadays are just attractive conformists operating as propaganda tools. What good do most of these actors do anyway? Charities? We can just use the funds made from ai film for charity too. Theres really no downside to it other than these useless actors having to actually develop skills now outside of reading a script. You really cant tell me that a movie like the marvels wouldnt have benefitted from ai writing or actors

The vast majority of actors and film crew are not rich. They’re just normal people trying to provide for their families and make a living like the rest of us. It affects everyday working people not just the outliers like you mentioned. That’s one reason there was a strike.

Ahh yes, lets just allow ai to replace all artists who put years into perfecting their craft. We don’t need em. Hell while we’re at it, who gives a sh*t about concept artists either? Painters, prosthetic artists, animators, graphic designers, writers, MUSICIANS… f*ck them all 😃 Lets all just do something “”useful”” & become manual labourers & let the machines do all our creative work, that way artists won’t be government mouthpieces anymore… the machines can be! Lets let the ai be our lawyers next, our programmers then our psychotherapists! Who needs them when we have a machine to do all our thinking for us. Let’s just throw the very soul of human existence into the trash because we got too fucking lazy to be creative & intelligent ourselves. Great idea you f*cking ret*rd. Enjoy your metaverse dystopia🖕

Christopher, I truly appreciate your insights on my application. With a lot of very specific details, I had contacted lawyers and Arts Council England before and wasn't very secure about sending the application. Your review of the application exceeded my expectations; you really paid attention to every detail and gave me amazing insights that I wouldn't have thought of myself about the content, organization of the information, and spelling/typing mistakes. I will recommend your work to anyone I know who is interested in getting the Global Talent Visa. Thank you very much.

Chris, this was INSANELY helpful. You have been the most helpful resource I have found to date. U made everything so clear. so THANK YOU!!! Question: Per Proof of Performance: If I am part of an ensemble and my name is listed inside the playbill several times, and I use the official poster, do I need to ALSO include a letter of support since I am part of an ensemble? or does this only apply when my name isnt listed solely (for Recognition or Performance) youre a literal life saver with these vids...
@christopherddalton5 ай бұрын
Thank you! Good question. On page 16 of the Art Council's guideline they state "If you have appeared in professional artistic programs as a member of a group, or with another individual, you CAN provide evidence of the contribution you made to their work instead." The word "can" implies that you don't have to but it's an option. I'm not 100% sure. I personally did submit letters with my ensemble work to cover all my bases just in case it would count against me if I didn't. I never asked the Arts Council this question personally.

I've done both while here and have gotten more auditions than the US. I think this is partly due to being in a niche market as an American. All the roles I've booked have been for American characters. It's very expensive here, but if you plan it right you can make it work. Cheap rooms typically go for around £1,000 with roommates.

Hi Chris. I received a response in 6 weeks for each stage. That sounds like it qualifies as long as you did everything that's required in the guideline. A question I kept asking myself throughout this whole process is "will this count as evidence?" You don't know for sure until you submit. Just try not to give them a reason to turn you down which is listed ( in the guideline) on what doesn't qualify.

Have reached out to the council, and they are super helpful. But, is it possible for you to list what you used as your evidence (without getting too specific , if you want to keep things private) Would love to know what someone accepted used, and where i might fit. Thanks

Hey Chris. Yea I thought about talking more about this, but decided not to in case it became problematic. As mentioned in the videos I used community theatre and improv troupes I was in for some of my evidence. If you're not sure if you're evidence will be accepted just make sure doesn't go against any of their guidelines. I found myself asking this same question up to the last minute I sent it off. "Will this count?" You won't 100% know until you get their response. I wrote out a checklist of everything I had to do. That helped me. Good luck!
