About me

I am seeking the opportunity to apply myself to media roles within my experience and I would like a new challenge to build upon my creative skills and knowledge. I graduated from UWE, Bristol with a 2:1 in Media and Cultural Studies and have completed a work placement within a short film company, Lumino Films. I am passionate and eager to learn more. It is important to me to build upon the skills I already have such as filming, editing and post production and would love to gain experience from a reputable company. I am certain I will have no trouble fitting in and bringing my qualities to add to your team.

As my CV reflects I have gained the experience as a runner at Lumino films working on a short psychological thriller over a period of 4 months. In this role I helped to collate and issue important information such as memos, call sheets, schedules and handbooks. As well as, arranging bookings for equipment, locations, transport and picking up clients. Furthermore, I was able to manage my own time and tasks, am capable of working under pressure and understand the necessity of working to tight deadlines.

During my degree in Bristol I learnt vital skills in the use of camera equipment such as fig rigs, dolly’s and steady cams. I built on my knowledge of lighting during the production process and the recording of sound effects. I have created several short films and animations, teaching me to provide accurate time management across all aspects of production from the planning stages to recording, through to post production and delivery. Additionally, I have improved my proficiency in post-production giving me advanced digital skills in Final Cut Pro along with Adobe Premier Pro.

I am confident in communicating with people and striking up positive relationships quickly and easily. Have a great deal of experience in group co-ordination and working as a team and presenting to small and large numbers of people.

I believe I am a suitable candidate in view of my special experience and my degree in media for many media roles and I look forward to hearing from you.
