draft 1- Reference

I am good at working in a team and have good communication and listening skills for example, for one of our assessment we were split up in groups for our short film such as was a producer and my job was to find location and make sure we sticking to the plan. Also I listen to my team mates and listen to any ideas that occur in our team meeting. For my presentation I had good communication skill and I was very confident, made eye contact and able to engage with the audience as I got a destination in one of my task.

I am good at researching and have detail in my work. For example, my research portfolio I research thoroughly in depth in my research about inspiration and film which I got a merit in. I always do my best to put as much detailed in my work as possible for my task as I got high grade. Also I am very hardworking and always try to best to my abilities. for instance, I was try to get my work to good standards and take on board feedback such as my first webisode it was not a good and learn from the mistakes such as ‘Knock, Knock Who’s There?’ it was much better the lighting was control and continuity flowed.

I am good at succinct- getting my message across for example in my proposal I got message across easily and I do not talk about topic or fact that is not relevant to the situation. By this I was successful in selling my idea or film as you can tell in my presentation I was very enthusiastic about my idea and I know what I was talking about.

I am well organised by keep to schedule on our shoot and charging the battery beforehand and making sure the weather is suited for the day we have to shoot. I also prepare contingency plan for example original plan was to have our location in Charlton House it cost too much money and the film office did not get back to us on time. So however we had another location that was suitable for the team and can spend more time shooting and sure that everything is up to standards.

As progress further into the course I find that I pick plenty skills that person that will use in the film industry. For example, framing, 180 rule, MES, lighting depth of field, flashbacks, flash forward to creative non- linear sequences and  also learn about open narrative. For instance, I use some of this techniques and skills in my 2 minute short film. Also one of the assessment I wrote essay on the different techniques and skills directors use to make their film or series successful.
