2018
In 2018 I was a student at Birmingham Ormiston Academy, studying in broadcast (TV & radio). I took part in multiple live recorded events on student projects at this specialist school. I tried to get as much experience as I could whilst at BOA. As well as outside college I took part in the BFI Film Academy.

I worked in a team to create and star in the production ‘Hellpline’ in which I had to do my own makeup to look like a glamorous ghost whilst helping other actors with their makeup, for example I put in contact lenses for other actors and styled their hair. At the academy I had masterclasses with industry professionals and achieved a Silver Arts Award.
This was our end of year showcase. This featured my radio advert for Thrifty store Brum and some clips from a short film I made for an exam. During the event I did BTS photography for BOA TV's social media.
