Mentorship provides real-life experience

As part of a mentorship with Screenworks, Felicity had the opportunity to gain hands-on experience, shooting a television commercial (TVC) for Australian weight-loss company ‘Lite N Easy.’

“While on set, it was my job as a runner to tend to whatever the crew needed. Things like running errands, collecting catering, assisting wardrobe, transporting talent, helping the art department set up rooms for filming and general housekeeping,” she said.

“I loved every minute of my experience. I was never bored, and I met the most amazing people on set who were accommodating, welcoming, and knowledgeable.”
