My first entry into the music industry was actually at JMC Academy when I moved into an internship position and from there my role grew and grew and I just networked around and made all these connections.

The main thing was making links with my tutors. I was already working as an assistant stage manager prior to JMC, so the course also solidified and developed my skills.

JACKSON DIGI EDIT 1X
I never thought I’d ever make a career from games. What I learnt at JMC was the technical side of things: 3D modelling, texturing, and how to assemble an environment. But I also learnt the soft skills—how to collaborate in a team, how to take an idea and develop it.
Jackson Wall
