Course Leaders

Georgina Bobb

I’m Georgina — a mixed-race woman from South London who turned 15+ years of working behind the scenes in TV into a mission to support the next generation of media professionals.

As a BAFTA member, production manager, and career consultant, I’ve worked on everything from documentaries and factual series to branded content and international shoots — for broadcasters like the BBC, Channel 4, ITV, Channel 5, Discovery, and more. 

I've crewed up productions, built schedules, managed budgets, handled logistics, and written countless call sheets and risk assessments. And while I loved the craft, I also saw the gaps — the ones that leave talented creatives burned out, underpaid, and invisible.

That’s why I created Booked & Busy Studio.

From Broadcast Hustle to Creative Empowerment

I help TV & media professionals get seen, get paid, and get organised by combining real industry insight with modern tools, smart AI systems, and supportive coaching. 

From rewriting CVs to showreel strategy, 1:1 power hours to VIP makeover days — I help you build a career that reflects your value. Whether you're just starting out, returning to the industry, or finally ready to claim your worth, I'm here to support you every step of the way. 

What I Stand For:

• Real talk over gatekeeping
• Strategy over guesswork
• Creative freedom over burnout
• Authentic visibility over fake gloss

A Bit More About Me:

• Wonder Women TV Mentee 2024
• TV Colletive Breakthrough Leader 2023
• Speaker, mentor & mental health advocate
• WeAreTheCity Rising Star Award Winner
• Let’s Build Your Career Together

My style?

Direct, friendly but supportive. Grounded but strategic. Always authentic. I believe in showing up fully — and helping others do the same.

If you’re ready to take your media career seriously (but still want to enjoy the process), let’s talk.Book a service, join the membership, or drop me a DM. You're already one step closer to being Booked & Busy.
