I am a confident and knowledgable student, recently I will come to the end of my two year course at Alton college and I shall be looking to go into the media industry, I have done many projects such as a music video, multi camera production and also factual features. I am an exciting person to work with and a great team worker, listening to instructions are an easy task for me and I can work well by myself in different roles.
