John Woodbridge talks about the new Freelance Update Programmes


Article reproduced from the Summer 2004 edition of Professional Make-Up Freelance, the free twice yearly postal newsletter available from Woodbridge Productions Ltd.

As a working freelance make-up artist, you’ve told us it’s essential to have access to film standard refresher courses and update training when you need them.
We’ve listened to you and have introduced our new Freelance Update Programmes - short one and two day ‘on demand’ refresher courses covering a variety of make-up topics.
These laser-targeted refresher programmes are designed exclusively for working make-up artists who must juggle their freelance work engagements with their need to stay at the forefront of the latest make-up techniques.


At the risk of stating the obvious, more and more demands are being placed on make-up freelances working in the film and television industries.

Whilst it is essential to keep your skills updated to remain competitive in an ever changing industry, setting training dates aside, often months in advance, frequently means either losing work or having to bail out of the training at the last minute due to changes in schedules or commitments.

But make-up training no longer has to be this way.

Now you can learn a new skill or update an existing one when you want to, using our revolutionary new short course training scheme designed especially for make-up freelances like you.

“The concept for our Freelance Update Programmes could not be simpler,” says John Woodbridge. “Choose the course you want, choose the date you want and book it.”

It’s important to note that these private individual training programmes are not designed for those without previous make-up artistry training or experience.

“The earliest stage of your career when you should consider taking these one and two day intensive programmes is after you’ve finished your basic make-up training,” says John. “For example, let’s say you’ve just finished college and really aren’t confident that you can apply bald caps correctly. That would be a great time to take our one day Ultimate Bald Cap Masterclass. You’ll learn how to wrap hair on a long haired model, lose your cap edge and create a colour match with cosmetics that won’t slip around all over the cap.”

Every Freelance Update Programme will clearly detail the previous experience required to participate.

John continues, “You don’t need any previous airbrush experience to enrol on our Flawless Airbrush Beauty Masterclass. But you do need previous cosmetic beauty experience before you come along. That way, we’ll guarantee that you’ll gain airbrush beauty skills during your day with us.”

Guarantees form an important and integral part of the training programmes provided by Woodbridge Productions Ltd.

“There are now a large number of make-up training providers in the UK. If you’re looking to update your skills, it’s often difficult to know whether a specific training programme will be of the standard you need,” warns John.

“If the course falls below your needs or expectations - you’ve already spent your money. I’ve always felt that system was crazy and very unfair to those trying to assess which training programme will provide the most appropriate standard of training for them. Freelances work hard to set aside funds to update their skills and, until now, they could only spend that money once. I don’t ever want you to get ‘stuck’ with any of our training courses, if you feel they aren’t giving you the skills you need,” says John.

“If you’re not enjoying the tuition, I’d much rather refund your money. That way you’re not risking committing your training funds when booking a programme that might turn out to be wrong for you. It’s just not right to expect you to gamble with your money. Therefore I’ve created a powerful, no quibble money-back guarantee for all our Freelance Update Programmes and Make-Up Masterclasses, “ John concludes.


100% SATISFACTION

John Woodbridge and the team at Woodbridge Productions Ltd. do not believe that you should risk wasting your money on a training programme that may fail to meet your specific needs and expectations.
Each Freelance Update Programme and Make-Up Masterclass we organise is taught to the highest industry standards by recognised experts who are working make-up artists with proven teaching experience.
However, if the training we provide is not what you expected or if you simply feel that you don’t wish to continue with the programme, just let us know by lunch time (on a one day programme) or by the end of tuition on your first day (on a two day programme).
You’ll receive an immediate and courteous refund of the entire seminar fee you paid.
That’s 100% of your seminar fee refunded immediately and in full.
No questions asked. No hard feelings.
Please note if you decide to claim a refund, you will be unable to take the seminar notes, bonuses and support material with you when you leave the programme.
This guarantee does not affect your statutory rights.
If you are unable to attend the Masterclass after making a confirmed booking, your seminar fee can only be refunded if notice of your non-attendance is received by Woodbridge Productions Ltd. not later than 72 hours prior to the seminar start date.
