Welcome to Phase two of our new FNI membership Programme.
Here’s how it works. You pick a first, second and third preference of Mentor. Then based on availability of Mentor, FNI will do our best to match you with your ideal mentor to chat for two video calls. This is very much a first steps initiative for Film and TV related individuals. These calls will take place at our live events over the course of the summer where you will pop out for a breakout room video chat with your desired professional.
