Education

BA(Hons) . Film and Media Production - First Class Honours
Sep 2013 - Sep 2016Sheffield, United Kingdom
Throughout my degree, I was given the opportunity to discover more about several areas to Film Production, and able to discover my own personal strengths and key areas of interest through making short films, alongside some theory based modules. I discovered an interest in Producing and organising projects, and during my final year, I took on the role of Producer for my final project - 'Behind the Make Up' - which was a short documentary that involved me learning on the job about ethical considerations and working with vulnerable contributors, as well as problem solving and how to distribute a short film. The film has since been nominated for a Royal Television Society student award within the Factual category (RTS Yorkshire 2017), and is currently being submitted to festivals.
