About me
I have completed a three year degree at the University of Derby in Bachelor of Science Sound, Light and Live Event Technology. I am now looking for employment to extend my knowledge and to offer the skills I have gained to my employer.I have worked in various venues such as Theatres, Churches, Church halls and outdoors and have set up the appropriate equipment required for each. Following each event I have ensured that all equipment has been safely dismantled and securely stored. I observe for any wear and tear and faults in the equipment removing them for repair if any are found. I am familiar with portable appliance testing.
The experience I have gained in local venues includes truss rigging, operating sound and lighting equipment and undertaking sound and light checks before performances. At these venues I have worked with both live sound and recorded sound. I have used sound effects which I have recorded and edited myself. I have always backed up this material. I have always ensured that all sound equipment used has been operated to all correct health and safety standards. I have regularly carried out maintenance of sound and lighting equipment at these venues, ranging from Mixing Desks to Lighting Equipment. I have attended meetings regarding the productions I have been involved with to ensure that all staff are aware of their roles and responsibilities.
I am able to work in a timely and accurate manner, taking pride in my work no matter how quickly the work needs to be done. I consider myself to be well organised and methodical, prioritising my work and planning my workload accordingly to meet targets and deadlines. My common sense and sense of humour enable me to work in a pleasant manner to cope with hectic and stressful situations.
I am able to communicate effectively both verbally and in writing. I communicate well with my colleagues, listening carefully to what they say and respecting their views.
Additional skills:
I play various instruments being at a grade 4 standard at classical piano performance, as well as a grade 5 standard music theory. I play drums and guitar being at a grade 5 standard on drums and grade 3 on guitar.
