In 2014 i started building up my work experience list, starting with working on the Oh TV 'Real Talk' live production working on social media with two members of the production team helping out. I then gained experience from making websites for companies such as Coventry City council by making promotional videos for public events such as SkyRide and The Coventry Half Marathon. I have also been contacted personally from the public to create videos such as wedding videos and music videos. However, the music video has been yet made but will be an upcoming project of mine. I have also had the great opportunity to attend small production videos such as a training video for Boots and i worked as an assistant. I have experience with non-media related jobs that have helped me gain customer service such as a job in Toys 'R' Us Coventry and having work experience working with a primary school nursery/reception class as an assitant for two weeks. I plan to build my work experience list within the media criteria and have already got Sky and BBC lined up for 2015/2016.

I have studied at Walsgrave C of E primary school and then went straight to Grace Academy secondary school where i achieved good grades such as Distinction*-C in both BTEC and GCSE. And then i went straight onto college at City College Coventry where i was able to build up all of these videos on this website where it gave me the chance to use new technology and gain my knowledge and interest. I am currently finishing this course with a very high grade that i am proud of. If you would like to know further details about my official grades, you could contact me on angel_sammi@hotmail.co.uk
