For the past year I've bee doing freelance work and I've started up my own company as a sole trader where I've working on a few projects. Prior to studying at University I studied at Jewel and Esk College for two years where I got my Higher National Diploma HND in Film, Television and Video Production.
My first week at University was very social. Reflecting back I had spent alot of time on my own not really spending much time with people my own age. In fact most of the people I had been spending time with had been mostly older adults because I've involved with things such as Business Gateway
workshops where most partipants were older than me. I've found myself suddenly with groups of around twenty people my own age which I've not experienced for sometime.
For my furst week everyone was just getting to know each other and receiving our matriculation cards. The first day was a challenge socially, we got an exercise where everybody had to sit in a group and introduce themselves. I suffer from anxiety and get really nervous within these situations so glad I managed to speak about myself to the group.
I was frustrated with my freshers week experience, it was really bad because I had planned to attend several events but had to cancel them as my lecurers had scheduled classes within the entire Freshers week so we efectively had no Freshers experience which is really sad reflecting back and probably had a really negative impact on my enjoyment of University at Napier.
To make up for this I attended the Pitlochry Highland Games by joining a coach trip to the event which I enjoyed. This featured Pipes and Drums with bands performing along with a Tug of War evet, Cycling and Running. The event began with sunshine but quickly that turned to heaviest rain shower I could remember at the time and had to run for cover.
It's been quite challenging for me talking to people in the class, I'm just getting to know everybody and often I felt everyone was in their own little groups, I've defiitely grown up as a person since attending University.
When I made this video I was really looking forward to the course, it seemed really practical hands on course and there were different modules for each subject so I was involved with a creative project, we experienced a TV Research module.
