  • Amazing Stories Foundation Partners with Warnermedia for the Film and TV Apprenticeship Program
    Friday, Oct. 16, 2020 Amazing Stories Foundation Partners with WarnerMedia for the Film and TV Apprenticeship Program Aimed at Local Atlanta Residents Interested in Careers in the Entertainment Production Industry The Amazing Stories Foundation announced its partnership with WarnerMedia for the Film and TV Apprenticeship Program, a paid training for adult career seekers looking for full-time opportunities in Georgia’s film and television workforce. The program will kick off its second season on Monday, Oct. 26 in East Point, GA for adults ages 24 and up. In response to a lack of diversity on various production sets, ASF was founded in 2019 by Rob Hardy, producer, director and owner of Rainforest Entertainment, as a way to train diverse emerging talent. He based the apprenticeship program in Atlanta to take advantage of Georgia’s booming entertainment industry and build a pipeline of highly-qualified and experienced hopefuls with a desire to work in film and television. Last year, the pilot season of the fellowship trained 14 production assistants who gained work experience on the sets of various shows including WarnerMedia’s “Black Lightning” (CW), “Dynasty” (CW), “Legacies” (CW) and “Lovecraft Country” (HBO). More than 86% of past participants were employed by productions based in the Atlanta area within the first three months. This year’s collaboration with WarnerMedia will give ASF apprentices training and placement through WarnerMedia’s Access to Action, a program that provides opportunities to those who haven't traditionally had pathways into the entertainment industry. It was designed to foster a more creative and inclusive workforce through production assistant jobs on television and film productions.
