- 13. Academic History I studiedseveral films during my English GCSE, in order to see how language was used as a shorthand in films. This is what initially sparked my interest as a film-maker, as it allowed me to see more clearly the minute details that go into film- making. I also learned a surprising amount about film-making when studying history. As history, both modern and classical is often the subject and almost always the inspiration for any given film. Learning to see the parallels between the two is something that, I think, gives me an edge in my film production. The first final project I created at York College, which was a documentary about autism, solidified my desire to pursue a career in media and has kept me eager to study the craft further at a university standard.
- 14. Current Study My currentstudy has built my knowledge base and confidence massively over the last two years. I’ve learnt a lot about how to shoot a scene in terms of colour, camera position, costumes, dialogue and more. First and foremost, I’ve extended my skills with adobe programs hugely. And now have at least an intermediate knowledge of Premiere Pro, Photoshop and Audition. PremierePro especially, which I have become quite proficient in. This will be useful, as the universities I have looked into all use this software to edit their films. This makes me feel as though I have more of an edge going forward. Photoshop and audition will also be very useful talents to have when making posters or working on sound effects. The most useful projects I have worked on have definitely been my FMP’s for both years. The documentary taught me a lot about working to a time limit, gaining contacts for interviews, the structure and format of landscape shots etc. While the Web-Series helped me a lot to learn about character development and telling a cohesive story across five different short films/episodes. Above all, these projects have taught me about how important it is to be passionate about your work and take confidence in what you do. After working with a lot of actors and crew members over the last two years, I know for sure that this is what I want to pursue at university. As I have enjoyed almost all of my experiences in the different roles in film production, be it acting, directing, cameraman, editing and more.
- 15. The Future In future,I want to go into screenwriting and story production for films, TV and short films. As story and character development in film has always been very interesting and engaging to me. Expanding my skills and learning more about the vast world of media production at University seems the next logical step on from that. I would love a chance to see how professional film-makers go about these processes.
- 16. Outside College Outside ofcollege, I spend a lot of time watching TV and Films with a few good friends, who also enjoy analysing the characters and story to determine its overall quality and story layers. This is a hugely enjoyable pastime that I have indulged in since I was in my early teens and has really helped me to understand more about the minutiae of detail that goes into crafting a story and engaging characters. This makes me a good candidate for university and I already have a keen analytical eye for visual media.
- 17. Conclusion I really wantto go to university, as it will allow me to rub elbows with the next generation of film-makers, build my contacts, learn about my craft and allow me to indulge in something that I am very passionate about. I’ll be a good candidate for university study, because I always try to put my all into the work I’m doing.
- 18. Introduction I’m applying forfilm production courses at three separate Universities. I’ve always had a strong interest in media, however, I haven’t acted on it as a career until recently. I know that ascending my skills to a university-level standard would be advantageous if I’m going to pursue a final career in the industry.
