evaluating my own qualities

Personal Characteristics.
Some personal characteristics i have are the time and attention to my product work and projects. i spend plenty of time on single sequence to create the perfect feel and always look to make the perfect product and i take it above time keeping to create a better piece, another quality i have i'd say is my team skills and friendly approach, i feel that i can support others in their roles and also lead a team too, into getting a visual idea together to putting the time to more time to pieces to inspire others to follow. and lastly i can follow others ideas and visual thoughts with out trying to change things and working around their ideas.

Skills.
advanced skills in editing with sound and visuals in multiply film editing software, basic skills in special effects and after effects, basic skills in equipment from cameras and audio devices.
advanced skills with sound recorders and microphones, basic skills in animation and in flash 8.
key terms and key knowledge in cinema and in films.
mixed industry knowledge and connections.

Relevant Achievements.
I took part in the BFI film academy course and paired that up with the silver arts award challenge

Experience and Interests.
some experience i have had over my years of media based and creative courses is my range of elements learned through out many different formats of art and creative work and through this have made many mistakes and applied the changes in more recent work to keep on improving and improving and through out my creative career i've learned many formats of art and how to create different pieces, from real life drawings to editing in film software, to the theories of cinematography to mixing audio in animations, the experiences, I've been more open to try more levels in media and enjoyed them all and cant wait to try more from video games to radio to podcasts, posters and formats ive done in the past.
My interests are film, TV, podcasts and games, i also enjoy reading and creating stories in role playing games and making them real. so in all you could say my interests are stories in all forms of styles and media. i enjoy games massively and have been playing them all my life id say and will keep on playing them and hopefully do some work for them on day, i feel way for film in the same aspect that i enjoy all the micro elements and i never really sit and watch a film to enjoy really i just find myself just looking for element i notices and think of ways i would have changed it.
i think something i want to try and do combine all elements enjoy of stories and sound and games of fantasy and mostly in this idea, podcasts. something i'd like to do is make a story in a podcast with a story i'd get from inspiration from one of my readings then build straight from the bottom to make a movie thats just sound based like the archers expect as one feature in a story that i created almost like a audio book but a bit more.
i also have worked for two different real life clients, one being for music video for a real life artist and a print based advert with full research for a client to come up with a new campaign for the restaurant he owned.

i will be taking a gap year in the near future so i will be traveling for 5 months experiencing the world more and learning to live on a tight budget and management my life in a stressful environment, with this  experience i hope to build character and a greater meaning to my life plans and what career i want to go down.

EVALUATION 
With all my equipment and good practical skills i still need experience and real life work experience of work environments  to adapt to that work ethic.
 wish to learn about on shoot practical  issues that i need to learn how to overcome that can only be done through trial and error on shoot.
I also need to learn the technical basics of sound and its raw elements of so i can deal with technical issues straight away and carry on working effectively. 

I would also like to develop my commutation skills with people in the industry, me and filming team find our selfs in a position were we have creative ideas and the budget or resources for pattern skills however we dont know enough contacts for certain errors that really effect end products.

Lastly i want to work on my organisational skills, i have always had issues with getting matters done on deadlines and finding what needs to come first to get stuff done, so i hope that my gap year and university experience will develop these skills.

  • contacts
  • practical skills - practise recording dialogue, testing levels in different environment , work on shoots.
  • technical skills - learn about basic electronics and effect on sound e.g hertz, ohms, currents, amps and everything that effects the sound waves. also learning about equipment.
  • organisation skills
