Recorded live at our Industry Talk Night, Ainslie shares her journey from beginning her career as an actor in series like ‘Diary of an Uber Driver’, ‘Winter’, and ‘BedHead’ (directed by Ben Mathews) to making a pact with herself early on to earn her living solely through the entertainment industry. This resolve led her to explore and excel in various roles, from casting to directing and writing. Her web series ‘600 Bottles of Wine’ which she made with her best friend writer and actor Grace Rouvray, was picked up by the BBC, Netflix and Network 10. Since then she found success writing for various series such as ‘Playing for Keeps,’ ‘My Life is Murder,’ ‘Amazing Grace’ and eventually creating ‘Paper Doll,’ a compelling drama about the rise and fall of a fictional girl group in the early 2000s.This episode is packed with practical advice on staying open and adaptable, creating and leveraging opportunities, and navigating your own path in the entertainment world.
