Choosing a sector within the media industry

Despite firmly knowing that I want to work within the media industry after graduating, I am still unsure of what specific area I want to work in so it is a possibility that during this opportunity, I will explore more than one specific profession that I am considering for the future.

Up until the past few months I have been certain that I want to go into a film production role after university, I am definitely more interested in pre production from script writing to directing. But given that I have recently become interested in graphic design and Illustration, I think it  might be useful to harness this module in a different way and to take this opportunity to explore a graphic design related career, which will either clarify that I want to pursue film, or open up a new alternative choice to consider.

I will try and get in contact with a few people from different ends of the spectrum, some independent companies and some larger scale companies.

 I will now have to begin my research into particular companies locally to Brighton and London because these are the most appropriate places for me to be networking and gaining experience in geographically. 


Now I know what kind of jobs I want to look at in further detail, its time to research some companies in appropriate companies and start to think about how to construct emails them explaining my intentions and asking whether they can accommodate what I am asking without making it seem like a forced exercise as part of a module.
