Possitives

Overall, this experience has been very positive and I have learnt a lot about the industry that I will be going into after university. There are certain things that I would like to mention in this post, these are as follows.

• The first positive thing that I have got from this assignment is more advanced communication skills, in terms of emailing professionals & studios and also developing my one-to-one people skills during interviews. This is not only a photography skill but in fact a life skill.

• Another positive from this assignment is the fact that I have been able to get all the questions that I have about the photographic industry answered. Through choosing the right questions to ask the photographers, I have been able to get further knowledge about certain aspects that I didn't know about before.

• The third positive skill that I have learnt from this assignment is how to act around professionals, as well as how to promote myself and introduce myself to them. This has been one of the first times I have been networking within the industry and I will continue to do more and more networking throughout my career. 

• I have also found out about several interesting and useful websites and magazines that I have been told about during the interviews, I will regularly check up and read these articles and websites.

It has been a great experience and I have enjoyed it thoroughly, I have taken away many skills and life skills.
