LEAVE THE KINGDOM OF THE BLIND...
Nice one. If you're reading this, you're well on your wily way to becoming a one-eyed king. To get you in the mood, check out Jazz Pirates - the winning 4Talent ident from our hotly-contested Talent with a Sting competition:
A one-eyed wha...?
Easy, we didn't mean to offend. In layman's terms: you're talented, you've got creative flair and aspiration by the spadeful, but may not be sure how to carry it safely through this sticky mire of a multimedia industry.
You might as well use a white cane to tap your way through your cross-platform career. No-one's beaten a nice flat path and marked it with bunting and flashing arrows. Some might even dare whisper, it's the kingdom of the blind.
What are you going to do about it?
We're the people who help make that sticky mire a little easier to plough through. A nudge here, a steer there, a welcome boost to help get you a couple of rungs higher up the career ladder.
And it's not just about London: across the far-flung corners of the UK, we're the fizzing neon glow in the murky darkness - the cream in your coffee, the mojo in your mojito.
Mojito?
To ditch the crap metaphors, we can't serve success on a plate. But we can give you what you need to see a bit more clearly.
Be the first to know about all of Channel 4's talent development schemes and other opportunities in the wider industry.
We're here to provide inspiration, a showcasing platform and the inside track from those that have been there and done it - however unconventional their route.
To wrap it all up, with one eye open you can get ahead of the pack and realise your true potential: a one-eyed king amongst the blissfully ignorant.
Join us. We are the one-eyed kings.
You'd better get started: on the site you'll find plenty to read, watch and listen to, as well as opportunities from across the UK.
