FILMMAKING
University of Reading - Professional Placement Year
Between July 2023-24, I worked on a placement year as the Digital Communications Coordinator for the Global Recruitment Team at the University of Reading.
During this period, I had the opportunity to explore and develop my skills as an aspiring filmmaker and editor by creating informative content for prospective students across the world. I have created content for the official UoR YouTube channel as well as the international page on Instagram and Facebook. Many of my videos have been featured in newsletters and university updates, recieved and viewed by thousands.
Checkendon CofE Primary School - Volunteering
In spring of 2023, I volunteered to work with the Headteacher of Checkendon CofE Primary School to create a welcome video, showcasing her institution. Here I had the chance to work with staff and young students, coordinating a film highlighting the values and selling points of the school. Sarah, the headteacher, was greatly appreciative of my help.
Youth in Mind Berkshire Conference - Work Experience
During May-June of 2022, I undertook a one month opportunity as a filmmaker and editor for Mind in Berkshire. My role was to attend the charity conference, located at The Globe, Reading, to collect video clips and content. I later edited this content together and this was used as the official video for advertising the 2023 conference.
