APPLICATION FOR SOMETHING
​
I have been applying for freelance photography jobs with different management companies. I have a list of artists I feel my photography style fits and finding contact details for their management and sending over my portfolio. The email template I have been using is:
I received a response from a management company with an impressive roster, they said they currently don't have anything but have added me to their list of creatives and will contact me in the future when something suitable comes up.
The application process involved me _____.
For this unit, we will be thinking about who we are and where we want to take our career once we finish college. We will be developing our professional persona and presenting ourselves to the creative industries with our CVs, portfolios, networking skills, etc.

CV
​
As I want to work in the music industry when I leave college, I tailored my CV to only include experience relevant to that industry. I took out all the information about my part-time hospitality work and instead listed all the music experience I have.
​
Once I was happy with the draft, I had a friend in the industry (who works at a label) read over it and check it was alright. I had listed my experience by relevance, but she said it would be better to change the order to by date, starting with the most recent at the top. I adjusted this and she checked it again and said it was perfect.

PROBLEM SOLVING

Charlotte and I weren't free on the same days to record the podcast due to timetable clashes
​
We decided to record the podcast in the evenings instead. However, we found this wasn't practical due to work schedules. I changed the plan for my FMP to photography and made sure I had shoots booked so I could definitely get the work done.

A light didn't work at Ellie's photoshoot
​
We solved this by finding out the cause of the issue (a blown bulb) and seeing whether it could be fixed. As there were no spare bulbs, we located another light in the studio to swap with.

Not enough time to edit photos within the deadline I set
​
I extended the deadline for these photos and set aside more time the following week by changing plans and reducing hours at work to get these done.​
