BASE Support Hut is a mentor scheme designed to provide support and guidance to performers on a one-to-one, personal level.
Curated by BASE Operations Manager Emily Noke, the scheme offers performers the unique opportunity to gain personalised industry advice on a range of topics, as well as access to our database of professionals in the industry.
WHO IS IT FOR?
BASE Support Hut is suitable for all performers - whether you are a graduate looking for some support after leaving college, a performer looking for advice on headshots, working with or without an agent or help with self-assessment tax returns - the topics covered are individually focused to ensure you get the most out of the scheme as possible.
ABOUT ME
"I wanted to create a scheme that could provide a support space for performers. There is often so much information readily available that it can be daunting knowing where to start or where to look for advice. I felt there was a need for a 'middle man' - someone to point you in the right direction and offer a helping hand for those industry specific topics.
I trained as a professional dancer at London Studio Centre. Upon graduating I worked for several years as a performer, before moving into the agency side of the industry where I worked my way up to Junior Agent. I am now Operations Manager at BASE Studios, which has fast become the UK's leading dance studios. I also have experience working in casting for both theatre and TV/film. Having a background in all these varied areas has allowed me to gain an understanding of both sides of the industry.
Most importantly I want to help performers - to be a friendly face that you feel comfortable and confident talking to, and allow you to decide your next steps to progress within the industry."
