Hello, there! I'm Reece.

 

I am a postgraduate of Birmingham City University with varying skills in both audio and video production. My creativity and ingenuity is often invaluable to my work, but my levelheadedness and willingness to learn keeps me in check. My eagerness to discuss ideas often allows ideas to be challenged and evolved as well.

​

During my AS Levels I partook in Media Studies and found it to be truly fascinating. However, after I enrolled onto a Sub-Diploma course in Solihull College, media had become a true calling for me. It held my interest even more than before, my understanding of the media industry greatly increased and I was making excellent progress through the course and assignments. However, it took me a little while to notice, but I was having so much fun doing it too.

​

I moved up to the full Diploma course and it was even more challenging, but also even more engaging. I found it to be so enjoyable that it didn't matter how challenging it got for me. The course allowed me to absorb and practice a range of skills across numerous forms of media. This included: video production, radio production, music and soundtrack production and researching along with learning the structure and theories of the media industry.

​

Now, having moved onto Birmingham City University in the School of Media and graduating, I only expect myself to grow further and use my existing skills as a stepping stone further into the media industry. I'm ready to take on what's ahead and ready to become better, regardless of how it goes.
