Future Flames Productions (FFP) is the UK’s only college-based commercial production company giving creative media students real live experience of producing high- quality video content. All revenue from client commissions funds students’ academic and personal development, including course-related trips and visits, for example to television studios and/or anything they need to complete their coursework. FFP’s ethos is very much about “doing what we teach in the classroom out in the real world and in real time’, with commissioned work directly contributing to student assessments and shaping their career paths. Since launching in 2021, FFP has seen students work on over 100 films for 18 different external clients ranging from the local council, combined authority, social housing provider and NHS to Co-Op Travel, small businesses and charities. Their films have addressed issues relating to race equality, health and wellbeing, knife crime and child exploitation. As a result: • Students’ progression onto higher education at the college and other universities has increased. • More students have also ventured into freelance work and self-employment as video editors and content creators. FFP continues to evolve and grow by creating work experience avenues for other creative industries students and by increasing their client base.
