My ambition is to work in film or TV as a director or in sound. I am also interested in the business side of the industry, looking into the business of film and also advertising. I had a one-week placement at BBC Elstree where I spent most of my time working on Eastenders (production and post-production) During this week I spent time with the sound department both production and post-production. I also looked at editing while I was there as it is something I am interested in. During my time I learnt a lot about the makings of TV and how the production works.

Skills
During my time at university I have gained skills in using all sides of both production and postproduction. I feel confident using cameras and sound. I have directed on a number of short film. I am also a confidant editor on both AVID and Final Cut.
