✨ We’re delighted and grateful that filmmakers Zara Trott (Mark’s Gift 2023) and Jake Bentley (Mark’s Gift 2020) represented the Foundation on a panel at Norwich Film Festival 2025 🙌 They advised students on ways of entering the film and TV industry - reflecting a key part of our mission!
Zara said:
“It was great being a part of the Norwich Film Festival panel on Getting into Film with The Mark Milsome Foundation. We discussed with students entry roles into the industry, where to find opportunities, and tips for your first time on a film set. It was great to see all the aspiring talent that will be enjoying the industry.”
