Hello,
I'm Frances and I am currently a second year student studying BA Media Professional Studies at Liverpool John Moores University.
In this first post I will talk about how I became interested in media and technology.
Before college, I had no experience in media; I didn't know anything about it. When I enrolled at college after high school, I had a spare option after I chose the subjects that I wanted to study, and after flicking through the prospectus I decided that A Level Media Studies looked like fun. It ended up being my favourite subject of the four I was studying and I decided that I wanted to carry on with media studies at university.
I particularly enjoy the practical side of media, planning a project and then filming and editing and bringing my ideas to life. Having a film that I helped produce screened to a large audience is something that I would like to achieve some day.
Since starting Media Professional Studies at LJMU I have learned about a wider range of things to do with the media industry, such as starting a business, and research media. I think that it is important to be versatile and to be able to demonstrate a wide variety of knowledge and skills, as the media industry is such a large and competitive industry.
Along side media, I have a huge interest in the music industry, as a hopeful musician myself. I am interested in the impact that the media industry has on music, and the impact that music has on the media industry; new technologies that have allowed the two to join, such as MP3 players, internet sharing such as iTunes and Youtube, and also the production of music videos for television.
