I believe that I am suitable for the job because this is a big chance for me to expand
on the skills I already obtain and will eventually help me develop my career even
more in the future. I am not the smartest person academically, but growing up in the
media world has helped me understand become a genius in the film industry. I don’t
need this job, I want it. No one or nothing will get in my way or stop me from
achieving my goals of being a director, I know that not only i can be good, but i can
be the best. Working as a director to me, is a team effort. Just like many of the sports
and hobbies i do such as playing football, basketball, and even gaming (with games
such as FIFA or NBA) i like to be a team player, helping and having others on your
side can help strengthen you which is what I like. My first encounter with media was
at the start of 6th form, I didn't choose the subject, didn’t want to do it either but i
thought why not, it was clear after my first lesson that Media is the one for me and
my future.
I am looking to go into the media sector, particularly via the video production
department. In addition, I am also looking to further my career within the film
(directing) industry, as I am always keen on learning and gaining new skills and
knowledge.

individual. My main interests and activities include team activities (as i mentioned
before) such as football and basketball where i can develop chemistry with the
people i work with

4. Even though he wasn’t a director, as a child I would look up to Fred Quimby even
though i never knew he was no longer around. The reason for this is because I loved
watching Tom and Jerry which was my favourite show. The majority if the times i
watched it, I would always see his name and his name only before the cartoon starts.
I always looked at his name and I would thank him for me being able to laugh, so in
light of all this i decided if he was the reason why I enjoyed what i saw then i wanted
to do the same for others. I want people to be able to consume the material and then
appreciate the work and effort that my team and I did to make that happen.
