A specialist site featuring information on interview skills plus film and television production.
Fine Cut Films started life as a production resource - information about programme making.
The Arthur Andersen fiasco changed that; there's now so much interest in media handling techniques, that most of the site is now devoted to this specialist business.
There's still quite a lot of information on film production, though - including how to interview people!
