DkIT recently reported that 97% of its graduates are in employment or further education within 6 months of graduating, and after watching these stories you can understand why the Institute’s graduates have such phenomenal employability success.
The content and filming of these informative Studio Stories was very much a DkIT family affair as the series was created by current DkIT students for perspective students, starred students past and present along with staff and industry friends. Also, the filming of this series is brought to you with the expertise of students studying BA (Hons) in Film & Television Production, these DkIT undergraduates superbly operated cameras and autocue, rigged lights and recorded all the sound.
The host of this fabulous collection of videos is the super talented, DkIT graduate, David Hammond, who graduated from the Institute in 2017. David is an award-winning star of radio who has quickly risen through the ranks of broadcasting and currently co-hosts, Spin 1038 national Breakfast Show called Fully Charged: Recharged alongside Emma and Aisling.
