our vision

From Ford to film…we’ve come a long way!

Film Barking & Dagenham’s ‘MAKE IT HERE’ programme – funded by the borough’s film studios operators MBS/Hackman – has been created to create a set-ready workforce and supply chain to support film activity in the borough.

Working collaboratively with the film studios and incoming productions, our shared aim is to increase inclusivity and diversity within the sector, tackle industry skills gaps and offer life changing opportunities for our learners, jobseekers and local businesses.
