8. What we want from you is research in to the part of the media industry that you are
most interested in. That could be films, magazines, video games, television,
journalism… whatever you are interested in.
Find out about that industry. What jobs roles are available? What skills do people
need to work in that industry? What level of education is needed? How diverse, or
not, is the industry?
We want some good facts and figures that you can take and then use in your
illustrated guide.
Write down the information that you find, and keep a record of where you found it.
It’s best to get lots of research, and then pick the most useful information from that.
9. When making your illustrated guide, think carefully about all the elements
involved.
A good guide will have:
• Concise information
• Consistent image style
• Clear, consistent typography
• A coherent colour scheme
All of these elements need to work together to create your guide.

a fact file about them. Research their journey to where they are now; look at
education, experience, skillset and look for insightful quotes about them and by them
to build a picture of who they are and how they work.
13. What we want from you is research a specific person that works in the part of the industry
you made your illustrated guide for. Focus on those involved in the production of media,
rather than people who just appear in it.
Find out as much as you can about them, to help you produce your fact file.
We want to know what their education was like, what experience they have and what skills
they have. Find quotes about them. Read about them. Get a good picture of who they are
and how they got to where they are.

• What insight you have taken from this that can help you in your
development?
This information can be presented with graphics, typography and a colour
scheme.
17. What are you currently doing to pursue a career in your chosen field?
I have slowly been writing my own sort film with the idea to try and completely make
it myself. I just started with the ideas of the story and thought about what I wanted
to see in my film. I enjoyed the aspects of creating a story and developing characters.
I took a break from making it but I went back recently and started properly writing
the script and I enjoyed it a lot, but I realised that I was more excited about when or
if I would ever start filming. I haven’t yet. I’ve also had an idea in the past week to
make an almost like magazine that is just full of my own mountain biking
photography which I know that I am definitely going to do, just once I have the time
to start it.
18. What do you plan to do next in the pursuit of your chosen field?
I am looking at trying to get a job in a film studio that is at the end of my village. I
don’t mind what I do at all, even if it’s just sweeping up, I’d like to start trying to get a
job in that scene because I’d like to see what it is like. As well as that, after college I
think I would like to go into an apprenticeship to try and jump straight into getting
experience as I’ve realised that experience is highly recommended thing for getting a
job. As well as that I think I would also like to try and pursue the route into media in
mountain biking as I really enjoy the sport and love the media side of it as well. I
would maybe like to look into making mountain biking films or maybe the mountain
bike print scene. There's a small scene in mountain biking that consists oof people
making zines for mountain bikers.
19. Select at least three potential University courses that would help you further your career aims. You should state
what the course is, which university it is run by, the entry requirements and why you think it would help you.
BA(Hons) Filmmaking - UWE Bristol - Entry Requirements, 128 Tariff points
BA (Hons) Film and TV Production – Sheffield Hallam Uni – 112 Tariff Points
BA (Hons) Magazine Journalism and Publishing - University of the Arts London – 80
Tariff points
20. What type of work experience do you think you would need to help you in your future career? How might you
be able to find work experience placements? If you could pick anywhere to do work experience, where would it
be and why?
I might look towards getting work experience at big companies such as BBC or SKY
because they offer jobs that can either last a couple of days or maybe up to a month
and getting experience with such reputable companies can help, especially because
there is a big competition for getting such jobs.
21. What specific skills do you need to develop? There should be a mix of industry specific skills and also personal
development points. When you identify these, come up with suggestions as to how you might make those
improvements.
I will need be able to carry out instructions quickly and correctly as well as staying
calm under pressure due to approaching deadlines. An obvious one is technical skills
in the area as well.
22. In 5 years time I will…
In 5 years, I will be just finishing Uni and will be ether trying to get some sort of job
or work experience somewhere that could lead me into becoming a Camera
Operator or I’ll be looking towards getting some sort of job in publishing, preferably a
part of the mountain bike scene.
24. Task 4: Music Video Process Log [2.1, 2.2]
Complete the Music Video Process Log to evidence how you worked technically
during the Music Video production phase. Screenshot and explain how you managed
to get your production finalised.
There is a specific pro forma that you will use for this as part of your music video
production. Ensure that is completed with your Music Video project, to complete this
task.
26. Task 5: End of Year Review [2.1, 2.2, 3.1, 3.2]
Produce an end of year review looking at how you have worked across the year,
considering each stage of production, which productions have worked/not worked,
how you have managed your time, what skills you have developed, how you have
worked with others and how you organised your time, resources and equipment
