Hayley's story
Music, film, art, and literature have always played a large role in my life. Growing up, when it was no longer the norm for kids to ‘go outside and play’, and in an increasingly digital world, these creative avenues were how I spent most of my time. They gave me not just entertainment but also new perspectives and a way to connect with my friends. Then, at some point, I realised I wanted to build a career within the creative industries. The only question was in what way.
At college and university, I came across opportunities that introduced me to marketing, through clubs and personal projects, which is how I realised my interest in it. I had just finished my first marketing role out of university – a role I learned a lot from but was ultimately not in the industry I wanted to be in – when I came across this role online. I’m a big fan of concerts and live music, so it immediately stood out to me. I still remember how excited I was when concert films started becoming popular enough to be shown in cinemas. After all, as much as I love concerts, going to every single one would hurt my wallet and my sleep. All this brought me to Trafalgar Releasing, and I’m enjoying working on ever-changing projects that are challenging and fun!
