P2. Evaluate My Own Qualities

Personal characteristics:

I am a driven, creative, and motivated to achieve my goals. I would say I’m outgoing, and I have good communication skill, I can work well independently as well, as working well in groups. I would describe myself as organised and punctual, and I strive to put my best into everything that I do.

Skills

I am skillful in Adobe software such as Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, and After Effects. Skills I wish to develop and improve are working with actors, learning more action verbs for directing, and understanding the technical side of things better in cameras and editing software.

Relevant achievements
I have achieved over the year, Producing a music video, self directed and cinematography and edit documentary and done a advertising campaign for Backstitch store in Cambridgeshire. Other work experience that i have gained is working at the race course in Newmarket catering and heath and beauty retail at savors all of these jobs have given me transferal skills: working well as a unit, independent responsibilities, great customer service, dealing with money and stock, and social skills. However I would like to get a job that more fashion orientated. 

Experience and interests

2014, I traveled to South Africa on holiday, I managed to use my time wisely and get work experience with my Aunt designing, making and tailoring farewell gowns. I continue to develop my craft by working with a year 7 textiles class by demonstrating to them the importance of simple stitching techniques and assisting them on their visual presentation.

Strengths and Weakness

My strengths are Fashion Textiles and Media. Having spent most of my time with relatives that make their own clothes because their sizes aren't available, I have become empathetic to oversized   people. Also have secondary and further education in textiles and media. I mostly enjoy going to Exhibitions to get new ideas.

I would like to develop my confidence more in expanding my basic knowledge in the Adobe Suite, so that I can create high quality projects. Also giving presentations to a group of people to persuade the audience.

As well as fashion design, my other interests include styling, photography, and art this includes a wide range of mixed media to abstract drawings and paintings. I also enjoy travelling and learning about new cultures.
