The video below is my Show Reel
Video Editor
The role of a video editor strikes me the most as its something i personally enjoy doing, The pay seems slightly above average, however its not a bad pay at all for something so enjoyable. It would also help you with new skills as in college or at home youre limited to what you can use...where as if this was your job you'd have funding etc and the ability to buy much more expensive things and open your horizon a little bit with your creativity. Also it says its in London which of course is the capital of England and known as one of the more successful places in Europe. Quite allot of big names have come out of London, maybe you'd be working with some of these bigger names? A Job like this could really have allot of twists and turns that could get you more recognised etc and just be an amazing opportunity.

Social Media Producer
A social media producer is responsible for promoting the social media accounts for a network, for example if you work for ITVs social media team you are in charge of interacting with the public, wether it be responding to peoples tweets or releasing posters online etc. Usually the social media producer is in charge of the suite for a company. SO For example ITV might have 6 different channels and then 6 different social media accounts, one per channel. So you'd be the 'chief' and have a media team under your wing to help you out. This job would definitely be interesting. Being in charge of a media account must sound abit boring to some people but to me i think being in charge of whats being sent out socially is a big deal? Its something id happily do, i dont know if thats because im young and my 'generation' revolves around social media, and then we i get older i might find it annoying and boring, but at my current state/age its something id be more than happy to do as a living?
Graphic Designer
A graphic designer is responsible for designing the illustrations used by a company, for example maybe the companies logo? the companies promotional posters? and so on. The job iv found is in manchester, which for me would be convenient. Its £10 an hour which is just under double the average wage which is usually £5-6.50 so £10 an hour is a good pay for such an enjoyable job. The actual job advert states they produce bespoke commerical and social productios that innovate inspire and create suistainable change. This is quite a reassuring thing to read for someone that wants to apply for this job as it tells them what you'd be upto and what the companies about as a whole. Overall an amazing job to have if its your scene and could open up a MASSIVE pathway for you.
SHORT COURSES
The hyperlink above is a link to a Adobe after effects short course introduction, this would be an option for me as im not going to University so a course like this would keep my skills at a modern standard. This course covers basic skills such as adjustment layers and filters and other basic skills like key-framing, these are skills im already pretty comfertable with but im sure theres new things i could learn on a short course like that.
