Finito!

After my 1st year in MPS at JMU I am more than excited at the prospect of next year. I have took alot on board in my 1st year and broadened my knowledge alot, learning various creativity techniques and using new softwares such as; Adobe Dreamweaver, Adobe Photoshop and AVID Media centre. I cant wait to see what the new media building has to offer and can only hope it has as much to offer me as the Screen School has. I am also very happy with my progress made grade-wise as well, getting a lot of 2.1's and 2.2's giving me a great starting point to advance next year.

My strong point throughout both semesters has been in within the Production practice module, getting only 2.1's and 2.2's. I have thoroughly enjoyed all the modules but this module in particular has allowed me to be most creative and give me the chance to make my own films or movies with the right equipment and softwares.

I have also worked in various groups over the semesters being put in with both friends and strangers and have learned alot about myself in the way that i work within a team, i gained an inner confidence when speaking expressivley with a group and enjoyed in particular a lecture in which we used De Bono's 6 thinking hats, this taught me a lot and shown me its not wrong to correct or dismiss peoples ideas, there is just a way to go about it so you dont knock someones confidence.

Overall this year in JMU has been a fantastic experience and a learning curve, it has opened  up so many new opportunities for me and helped me progress toward getting a job in the film/tv industry.
