My First Week At University

-
❅Hello❅

 It's so crazy to think that i am actually attending university. Me living in Poland and then suddenly moving to London was a huge change, but i loved it. When i was doing my A-levels all i could think about is if i can actually go to university. I knew i wanted to be creative and i have always wanted to be creative since i was around 11 years old. I made so many videos that is was endless, my best friend introduced me to YouTube and i just couldn't stop creating ideas for music videos or story telling videos. All i did day and night was create, i had a lot of obstacles during this time but i did not stop. I did have a break during my last year of A-levels but i knew that when i start professionally filming and creating i will be the best i can. I went to the open day for Television Production in Maidstone studios and to be honest i wasn't sure what the course was or why i picked it, and then i realized; The amount of opportunities in this place and the amount of talent to learn from others was never ending! The cameras and editing software's were something i have never seen before, to be able to work with such amazing things was beyond me; To also find out that i will have opportunities to experience real TV show filming and meet a crazy amount of celebrities was something really unbelievable. I thought to myself where else would i have these opportunities? Nowhere. To have the best people teaching me these things i knew i will progress somewhere i have always wanted. In my first week i have met the most amazing bunch of people and i cannot wait to start producing amazing work with almost all of them, everyone is so talented and brave. Hi i'm Sonia 18 years old living in Maidstone, Kent documenting my years in University.

Fiction Adaptation - Trespass - John Clare research

While coming up with my proposal i really wanted to discover more about John Clare. John was born in 1793 and was a very famous poet, he was born as the son of a farm labourer and did not have much money. Many individuals state that Clare is 'the greatest labouring class poet that England has ever produced' since he came from a very poor background. While reading up on his background it was very hard, he had a troubled childhood and was also sent to an asylum where he had written most of his poems. I chose the Trespass poem due to me really having a strong connection to it. I feel as John Clare felt a lot of loneliness and pain during the time that this poem was written. The sonnet has rhyming couplets and seems less angry even though it is in-fact very sad. Clare really felt despair and pain while this poem was written. Clare was born into a middle class family and felt as he wanted to express these feelings within his other poems. I couldn't really find any informati

As Live Production - VT Reasearch 'Fashion Fails'

Fashion Fails – Internet Shopping Websites I have actually experiences these issues in the past with ‘Online Shopping’ you can never be sure if what you order is what you will actually get. I have researched a few websites that have this issue and how could we possibly stop them? The first website that has caught my eye is ‘Zaful’ . This online store describes itself as ‘Trendy women’s fashion’ it started off with just bikini sales but developed into clothing also – I have noticed this online store getting more and more attention due to Youtuber sponsorships, Zaful sent Bikinis and clothing for free to popular Youtubers to review them. This is where some of their stuff really came differently to what was show online. Most of their bikinis are VERY small when ordered in a Medium or Small, ‘It would fit a child’ one Youtuber mentioned while reviewing the clothing off the site. You cannot tell a lot from their pictures either, there is no description of mate

As Live Production - First look into Studio Production (workshop)

Today we had a very exciting workshop with Del, it was our first go at working in a real Studio Production atmosphere. We all had a go at different jobs such as Floor Managin, Sound, Directing, VT, Talent etc. We also had a go at playing around in the gallery and seeing what it takes to be a vocal Director. We all had a go and realised that when we go live all of us tone our voices down and really start to focus very strongly on what to say and what shot to play live. I had so much fun during this workshop but found out that most of the jobs are very difficult! Escpecially my own, being a floor manager comes with many different responsibilities. I realised that i had to really nail my 'Floor Manager' hand signals. I also found it difficult to manage the talent, Del told me that i had to be nexto each camera when live so that the talent can look at you and the correct camera. Me and George both decided to take care of one talent each - i would be in charge of Adeline and Georg
