"I chose Mass Communications at HIC because the course offered me lots of opportunities and work placements. I worked at Barbican Centre and British Film Institute during my study. With the knowledge and broad skillsets I gained from the course, I was offered the Second Assistant Director job in the production of Wonder Mama, directed by Clifton Ko Chi Sum immediately after graduating.

“Plymouth is a coastal city and even though it is quite small , it is equipped with everything I needed. Plymouth University was one of the few places in the UK to offer my course and there is also a European field trip which I thought looked great! Also, the weather is quite moderate here so I thought that I could adapt.”
