Job Roles in the Television and Film
Industries
Fixed Term Contracts are given by
employers on the basis that the contract will terminate at a future date. So
Basically if you are a director sometimes you do sign a contract like you got 4
months to make a documentary etc it would be same for the producer of the
documentary.
A freelancer or freelance worker is a
person who pursues a profession without a long-term commitment to any one
employer. An example to show this would be its your business you work for
yourself you can work whenever you want it is totally up to you. Also Known as
Self Employed Basically.
The term “hourly wage” describes a rate
an employer agrees to pay a worker per hour worked, such as £12 per hour or
£17.50 per hour. The “average” or “mean” is an estimated hourly rate calculated
using the varying hourly rates of a group of workers in a specific occupation.
So basically Now if you worked in a film industry it would be based on National
minimum wage depending on your Age.
So Basically irregular patterns means its
when someone works but not exactly 5 days it’s a bit like part time hours so
it’s a contract that only requires you to come twice a week or at unusual
hours.
