UNIT Studios Joins Forces with Holiday Club to Empower the Next Generation of Creatives

UNIT Studios, the Fitzrovia-based independent boutique creative studio, has announced its partnership with Holiday Club, a talent incubator dedicated to developing the next generation of creatives.

Founded by Bisoye Babalola, Holiday Club focuses on nurturing early-mid stage talent and providing opportunities for individuals to enter and thrive in the creative industries. This partnership will kick off with an Open Day on Thursday, 10th April 2025, designed to explore careers in post-production and offer insights into various creative pathways.

The Open Day will provide a deeper understanding of post-production roles, from grading and sound design to editing and production. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore these careers through 1:1 speed networking sessions, group conversations, and an exclusive studio tour. Young creatives will hear directly from industry professionals about their experiences, career journeys, and advice on how to break into the field.

Whether participants are just starting out or considering a pivot into post-production, this event is designed to make creative careers more accessible and offer the insights needed to take the next step. Through this initiative, UNIT Studios is committed to providing emerging talent with the tools, guidance, and support to succeed in today’s fast-evolving creative industries.

One of the key components of Holiday Club’s work is the flagship Summer School, a 3-week intensive program aimed at young creatives aged 18-25. The program is designed to nurture emerging talent, with no prior experience required, but a strong willingness to learn and work hard. Through expert-led workshops and hands-on sessions, participants discover their passions, refine their skills, and begin to build a career in the creative industries.

Holiday Club collaborates with a network of seasoned professionals from various creative fields, including artists, designers, stylists, photographers, filmmakers, marketers, and journalists. These mentors are not only industry leaders but also innovators who share their experiences, insights, and advice, helping the next generation navigate and succeed in the creative world.

Through this partnership, UNIT aims to provide similar opportunities for the next generation, helping them find their voices in an industry that thrives on diversity. This initiative is the first of many talent pathway programs at UNIT TV aimed at creating a more inclusive and diverse future for the creative industries.

Amanda Luckwell, co-founder of UNIT Studios, commented, “Coming from humble beginnings, my pathway into the industry was shaped by the guidance and support of mentors who gave me the opportunities to succeed. I am deeply passionate about supporting the next generation of creatives, ensuring a variety of talent get access to mentors early on in their career. Partnering with Holiday Club is an inspiring way to give back and ensure these emerging talents are supported as they take their first steps in the industry”.

Bisoye Babalola, founder of Holiday Club, added, “I’m excited to partner with UNIT Studios to open doors for creatives eager to explore careers in post-production. This collaboration is all about providing the guidance, mentorship, and hands-on experience they need to develop their skills and thrive in the industry as they begin their creative journeys.”
