Evaluation
From all the seminars, lectures and tutorials
over the last term, I have learnt many ways of putting yourself out there as a
professional rather than a student. I have learnt many things that can impact
you as a photographer by the look of your social media, website and business
cards. I was given improvements not just by lecturers at university, but the
students at the college I was working with for 4 weeks. I learnt information
regarding CV’s too, which isn’t just useful for now, but later in life too. I could
improve my website by filming Ibbie’s world videos as they give me the
potential to pursue a career in the YouTube industry. From certain workshops, I
learnt about the other students too, it was interesting to see what they wanted
to pursue a career in and what they thought was important to put on their own
CV’s. I got to view other student’s websites for inspiration for my own and I
was impressed with how their websites were looking. This module taught all of
us, not just me, how to promote ourselves, to get more jobs and how to reach
out to clients. Especially if we want to pursue our dream career. One key thing
I learnt about was elevator pitches. I learnt to be more confident and relaxed
when pitching. I discovered myself to be prouder of my interests and I started
to show it when presenting my pitch. If I could do anything differently, it
would be to take on board more advice about my website and my business cards. I
wanted to make sure they look professional enough so I can pursue either the YouTube
industry or a career in sports photography. In Conclusion, the media profile
assignment was useful for now and in the future, I will keep the advice on
board when updating my website or even my brand.
