Student Testimonials
It’s hard to summarise OTOXO other than it completely changed my life. Both professionally and socially. I started the 1 year programme with no technical or theory knowledge and left with 2 films and life long friends.
Put simply, the INto INdustry Programme gave me the skills, experience and confidence I needed to become the film industry professional that I am today.
I’m so grateful for the brilliant community of people I met through the programme, whom I have been able to reply upon over the years. In my team of 12 students alone, people have gone on to make award winning documentary films, produce major commercials, work at internationally renowned photography agencies and develop large scale dramas The wider OTOXO network has continued to be a source of creative support, advice, and good friendships.
