4. HOBBIES & INTERESTS
One of my favorite hobbies relates to the art
form of photography. A photograph captures a
moment in time in actuality, this is why I love
photography as you can capture any moment in
time and make it look remarkable with the
correct technique. Remembering that memories
can be created and can last for a lifetime. I take
most photographs on my personal camera, the
Canon PowerShot SX430 IS, this allows me to
take more professional shots. Attaining this
piece of equipment has allowed for my passion
to thrive.

5. PHOTOGRAPHY PORTFOLIO
In my spare time I like to take photographs …

6. FOOTAGE PORTFOLIO
Footage I took in Disneyland Paris!

7. EXAMPLE OF MY WORK
• This is a form of media content I have
created that I produced in the product of
a poster. I went to Wolverhampton and
took a photograph with my personal
camera of the main media building. I
then proceeded to put the image into
Photoshop, this is where I used my
editing abilities to enhance the photo
and then incorporate various poster
features to create the product. I found
this a very enjoyable experience as the
main purpose was to promote
Wolverhampton in a positive light.

8. ADDITIONAL MEDIA INTERESTS
• Another one of my media passions relates to
radio. As you can see (to the left) this is
example that of a radio piece that I have put
together, this piece of radio is essentially me
explaining why Channel 4 should move to the
West Midlands, more specifically Birmingham. I
had an incredible amount of fun creating this
form of media and allowed me to experience
what goes into radio to make it successful.
Before hand I didn’t really understand how to
create a form of radio, with this new experience
I now know how to and to a high standard.

9. SKILLSET & ATTRIBUTES
• During my academic studies I have obtained a wide skill set
containing different elements, ones that will support me in the
future. Studying IT has provided me with the necessary skills and
qualities that are going to be beneficial in due time. The
technological industry is constantly developing, more organisations
are looking to implement certain characteristics to impact them on a
beneficial scale. As well as IT being one of the most interesting
required functions of the world, I believe I have grasped the
essential content and information that will enable me to thrive in the
future. Due to the knowledge I have now obtained I can use a range
of software to my advantage; if it's developing a photo with
Photoshop or editing video footage with Sony Vegas my personal
interests and work experience has aided me sufficiently. By
studying Business I have learned many valuable lessons, such as
visualizing different impacting situations that could have specific
ramifications, also gained experience of working with a group whilst
being able to obtain and respond to feedback, the subject has
additionally improved my analytical mind set.

10. IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• I'm an individual who grabs opportunities with both hands. Throughout my time at Sixth Form
I
have been fortunate enough to gain some vital work experience. I obtained places at website
development companies and programming firms. In both areas, I was designated various
tasks
which required software that I was already familiar with, I had an understanding in
comparison
to everyone else. Moreover, when I had to operate in a team, my potential blossomed as I
could apply my experience and knowledge from my academic studies whilst being a focal
point in a group.
At school I take enormous pride in my ambassadorial roles. This relates to helping the
younger
students by refining their reading skills and other aspects by setting up educational
activities. This is beneficial to me as I feel I'm developing a community of people and
helping to shape their futures. Experiences like this has helped raise my confidence to speak
to innumerable people for specific things, overall improving my capabilities as an
ambassador.
My role includes; making sure students can express emotion and feel valued, this is achieved
by setting up lunch time activities and most importantly getting involved with charity and
fundraising events.
