TV studio
Oh dear I must say when I walked into those TV studios doors I was a tad frightened, it was quite intimidating and serious and I was scared to touch anything in case I broke it as I am thee most clumsiest person you’ll ever meet. When we first watched and observed the tutors I was really confused to be honest. However the week after we were put under the spotlight to go for it with the equipment, I was so scared that I wouldn’t have a clue but after a few run-throughs and rehearsals I found it to be a breeze and I really loved it, more than I ever thought I would. So a thumbs up with the TV studio and I’m super excited to be a floor manager. Bossing people around, could get used to this.

Media cultural studies
Oh my Monday lecture, I have one statement that is I love love love love this lesson. Im somewhat familiar with my lecturer Keith from last year and I did love the way he taught and was hoping he would be teaching me this year. I love the theory of media and his views are relevant and interesting, I’m looking forward to the rest of this module. 

Summer experiences
Oh summer was amazing, the best I have ever had. I travelled to Mallorca and ended up staying there for four and half months. Within the mist of the craziness I did manage to receive somewhat of an education within the media. I worked for a major nightclub, 7th best in the world to be exact, this club attracted a lot of attention as everyday a new famous act, performer or DJ was present. My key role was Public relations where I talked to the public about the club, however my interest in media was soon recognised by my superiors were they even let me do some filming work, being in a real life situation filming famous acts such as professor green, example, Calvin Harris and many more the list goes on for four whole months. The pressure of the job was interesting and the editing was also intriguing to see and watch. What astounded me the most was how quick the media employees produced the piece. It really gave me an insight into real life and the career I will be entering. Many more experiences to come so tune in J

Week one of second year

Oh no, my first week was a bit of a mess dues to my messed up flights. Silly me, So I booked flights for the Thursday before university started and when I went to print out my boarding pass the night before I was shocked to find my flight wasn't for the Thursday after. Woops, with this I have definitely learnt to be more careful when it comes to these fine details as missing the first week set me back big time. Once I had finally arrived I was running around trying to gather up module handbooks and all the necessary information needed to begin second year. After I had learnt my lesson I was fully caught up and in control of my work. I'm especially excited to share some crazy and wild experiences that I have come across over my summer break with my classmates and of course my blog.
