Hi,

If you have Facebook it may be worth looking at some of the film pages on there like "People in TV: Runners" they showcase a lot of opportunities to build your portfolio, also look for online courses too. Screenskills is great for the opportunities and courses they have to offer aswell.

Also just work on stuff yourself, experiment, film things, write stuff and so on. The best practice is through doing.

Hope this helps,
