workforce information, etc.

produce an illustrated guide to that sector. Include facts about employment,

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.
12. Task 2: Practitioner Research File [1.1]
Within your chosen sector identify someone who is a notable practitioner and produce
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.
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.
14. When making a fact file, think carefully about all the elements involved.
A good fact file will have:
• Concise and relevant information
• Quotes about the practitioner
• Information on their work and achievements
• Background on how they got in to the industry
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 am currently in my first year of the Level 3 creative media vocational course at York
College. I am also making things in my own time such as videos and logos.
18. What do you plan to do next in the pursuit of your chosen field?
I either plan on going to university or I plan on doing some form of smaller more
specific course to introduce me into the sector of work I want to go into. This is Film
and TV Production.
The more specific qualification I want is a post graduate degree so I will have to go to
university for longer.
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.
Leeds Beckett University – Film making
128 UCAS points
I think film making would be a good step into professionally creating films.
The Manchester Film School – Film and TV Production
64 UCAS Tariff Points
GCSE English Language and Mathematics A* to C or 9 to 4 where numeric grades are
being awarded
I think this course would be good because its more directly linked to what I want to
do.
London College Of Communication – Film and Telivision
104 UCAS 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 think I need work experience like different workshops in making films. Lots of
universities and film school offer lots of good workshops to do with film.
Good work experience could be with the BBC or ITV.
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.
Some personal development points are working to a deadline, being able to cope
with independent working and being able to adapt to changes.
Some industry specific skills are being able to work on different programs rather than
sticking to the safe options. Also I might need to be able to work on multiple projects
at once.
22. In 5 years time I will…
In 5 years time I will either be in my 1st year of a post-graduate degree or I will be
doing some work experience and workshops to widen my knowledge about different
fields in the film industry.
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
throughout the year. You should then produce an action plan for Year 2 selecting 5
key areas you wish to focus on to develop further.
Complete the following slides to review your year. You can add images if you want to.
You can get screenshots from any part of your previous projects to support your work
on this.
