This is a position which is interesting, this is something which i feel as though i could do i am aware that it wants experience but i feel as though i could offer them a full crew. I have a friend who has worked as a sound technician before and know many people who film edit etc. This is something which i am sure i could do myself without a company seen as graduation videos are neither exciting or action packed.

This confuses me, they want people who are starting out as this is good experience but they want them to have sony cameras and other kit. The best thing is its local, at last proof that up north has more than itv to offer production jobs.

This would have been so much fun, travelling around using cameras virtually the same as my own. Filming cars in a top gear style sounds like something so many people i know would like to do, this has also reminded me of the travel factor involved in this industry. This is something i would aim to take advantage of due to how i want to visit other countries and experience filming in different atmospheres.
