Hi everyone hope you’re all fabulous.
It was great to see some of you at the Salford MediaNet gathering earlier this week and I’m very much looking forward to meeting some more of you at the Brighton Gathering this Friday evening – details here
16 FREE Conference Places
Just a reminder to encourage any young Christians you know who are starting out in the media or looking to break into it to apply for the MediaNet Academy. They will get to experience the prestigious Church and Media conference for free, network with lots of helpful industry professionals as well as gain some unique and personal training in their very own Academy strand.

Annoying Team?
It’s no secret that creatives aren’t the easiest to work with sometimes! Do you find yourself struggling to work effectively and graciously within creative teams? Producer Mark Waddington has written a great article with some helpful advice about How to Survive and Thrive in Messy Teams
MediaCity UK Road Shows
MediaCityUK in Salford Quays will be hosting some live outdoor shows ranging from a musical weekend with 6 Music to CBBC & CBeebies live television shows. The radio shows kick off on August 10th with BBC Radio 6 Music’s Soul and Funk show. For more info, check out the Radio Today website
The Journalist’s Prayer
I’m sure lots of you have already seen this, but I was reminded of the importance of what we do as Christians working in the media by reading this
Duncan Williams
Apologies if anyone has been noticing the strange messages about theMediaNet and Andrew Graystone on Twitter from Duncan Williams and his various publications. If you can, please just ignore them but if you’d like to speak to Andrew, you can connect with him here
Interviews? Articles? Ideas?
Would you be up for being interviewed for the MediaNet website? What about writing a piece about how to do what you do – how to do effective TV research, how to create a great website, how to use PR effectively etc etc? Or could you write an inspiring piece/ share some content which might encourage other Christians working in the media? Do you have any ideas about what you’d like to see on our site?
If you have a job opportunity you want us to advertise, a prayer request or answer to prayer you’d like to share or an exciting project you’re working on please let us know and remember if you want a retweet, just mention @themedianet and if you’d like to post something on our Facebook page please feel free
