Design ResearchAlthough I have found it hard to keep my Tumblr blog up to date, I have produced a Wix website for myself which will later include my finished show reel and have a constant design throughout with my CV and Business Card.
The website includes examples of my past work, contact details, and an about me section where I am free to describe myself and my interest in the live television industry.
Showreel ResearchAndrew Painten, a freelance Director/Producer provided tips for a good show reel along with CV hints. His website includes programme clips and a link to his social media sites.
Mob Sport is the largest sport production company across Europe. Their website provides a range of showreels with a list of directors and their previous work.
Show Reel StoryboardHere is a rough story board outlining how I aim to construct my show reel with clips from my existing work.
After an introduction of the sport videos I have produced and camera operated, I will go on to
showcase my university projects, with emphasis on those that include the industry roles I am striving for.
CV ResearchPerforated CV and Business Card - everything in one place plus a small card with contact details rather than a large sheet of paper.
For my CV package, I would like to produce a DVD for my showreel along with a simple description of my skills and goals.
CV Design Research
I would like to produce a design that is simplistic and eye catching. As I am striving for a creative industry, I will need to reflect this creativity in my work.
A self promotion box with CV information with contact details. This is a unique and innovative way to advertise yourself and I will strive to design a concept like this.
Business Card ResearchTelevision business cards normally adopt a simplistic design with images or logos related to their roll in the industry. As I am looking to work in the live television industry I will include this in my business card designs, along with sport style designs to make it clear that is the sector of the industry I want to enter. I currently carry a business card designed for my role as Head of Sport at UPSUtv but would like to produce a more suitable design that has a more personal touch.
Business Card Design Ideas
In the previous slide I most prefer the colour bars business card as it is impactful while relating to my desired industry. This will be kept in mind as a possible design, but I will have to ensure I can incorporate my logo in a stylish and eye catching way.
As I am looking to becoming a script supervisor I will consider the choice of font I am using for both my business card and CV design. On the other hand, a typewriter font is fairly predictable for such a role, therefore I will aim to produce a unique looking card while ensuring it is relevant to my choice of industry.
Strengths and Weaknesses
StrengthsBroad set of skills including production management, live television, and film production.
Knowledge of cameras and editing software.
Organisational skills with strong people skills from working as a team in projects and with actors on set.
Experience on set and in the gallery as producer, director, pa, vision mixer etc.
Currently volunteer on That’s Music, a music show on regional channel That’s Solent
WeaknessesLimited show reel work, mostly university projects.
Few industry contacts and only a small amount of work experience, may make it harder to break into such a competitive industry
Action PlanIn order to complete my CV and Business Card designs, I will aim to have a solid design by the end of March to test and get feedback. This will ensure I can complete a CV and Business Card with relevant and interesting content to achieve my desired career.
This progress will be recorded on my blog, with screen shots of the design process.
In order to complete my showreel, I will take the best segments of my current work and edit them into a short sequence that summarises my industry relevant skills.
