Attitude : In the media panel held at bath college, I found out so much of how and what I need to do to get to the top of my field. In my case, I want to be a director and I am motivated to be so with great passion. So according to the panel, I have the correct attitude. They said: "If you're enthusiastic, you will work your way up". Also, they say "If you stick with it and you learn from your mistakes you can be the next person" This shows me about how my attitude should be and how to approach this industry. I find this helpful because I think that the best way to operate in the industry is to be "enthusiastic" and work my way up to "be the next person". This essentially means that I can be at the top of that field if I have the right attitude. Education: All of the panellists have got degrees and been to university. Not necessarily in Film and Media, however. One of the panellists got into writing and directing even though she had a b

The night before Christmas. In this drawn animation, we see a girl child was looking for Santa when she heard noises in her living room. She looks through the door when she put it ajar. Then she is star struck by what she saw as she noticed this animal/beast/monster on the roof, that ate the whiskey bottle and came out with presents at the other end. He escaped via the chimney and the little kid is then terrified by this and she is then lying in bed all shaken up. Christmas comes but once a year this starts off with a 3D panoramic shot of a house that they would have used a model to shoot that and get that shot. Then, we see the orphanage where there are lots of excited children because it is Christmas and they get out of their beds singing "Christmas comes but once a year" but sadly all their toy presents all break. Then we see this character on a sleigh come in and he is singing the same song but stops outside the orphanage because he hears lots of children crying so

Why work experience is important? Work Experience is vital going into the business of media. You should be able to find out so much more of what will happen in that particular workplace. The point is to simply know what you are going into for your future and finding whether that is the right job for you. The knowledge you gain from work experience allows you to put that on your C.V and then when you apply for your next job in that industry (especially media) you are more likely to get chosen. My plans for work experience. I do want to work with a film company. Although it will be difficult to get work experience from people like that, I will try and get into the editing of films or just ghosting in general. If I did get into a set of something involving the production process of a film it would help me so much because it is the way that you get into the media industry.  Why does this industry for work experience interest me? This industry for work experience interests
