from a Media Production undergraduate at Coventry University

Established Network of Contacts

Here is a list of the people I have met with and collaborated with along during my time during the professional experience:

  • Sunny Sahota (FA Recruitment/Development):
    Knowing Sunny is something I believe to be useful due to my interest in sport & media, by staying in contact with her I will be able to hear updates about the type of work the FA are conducting and see if I can contribute in terms of production.
  • Sarah Martin (Graphic & Design / www.twentysixmotif.co.uk):
    By continually discussing ideas with Sarah I will be able to formulate an opinion of ways to present myself and the company professionally; she also has many industry contacts, through liasing with them they will begin to become aware of the type of work I produce.
  • Monique Thomas (Recording Artist / www.moniquemusic.com):
    As we have left a lasting impression on Monique we hope that she will continue to remain in contact in regards to carrying out work at projects she may have in the future. By broadcasting the images we produced for her on her website, we also hope that people will see them and inquire about their origin; generating interest from different people who could potentially book our services.
  • David Yesufu (Apparently Brand Co-owner / www.apparentlyskateboards.co.uk):
    As the brand continues to grow so will the need to publicise it, I believe that as my technical skills improve I will be ready to aid the promotion of the company and work as the video specialist in their upcoming advertising campaigns and projects; also by the company featuring the work I have produced for them others will recognise where the content has come from.
  • Ayo Oduniyi (Freelance Photographer / www.a-o-media.com):  
    Ayo has been professionally doing photography for a few years now and I believe that there is a lot to learn from him in terms of the experiences he has had and the type of equipment he uses. He has been able to establish himself as a credible photographer, communications with him could contribute to develop of my own technical skills.
  • Ruth Ible (CEO of The Angel Resource Project UK):
    As a result of the work we carried out for Monique Thomas Ruth has booked us to cover the media for an event she has upcoming; she has also suggested that if we are both pleased with the way we work together she would recruit us as the official media producers for her company. I look forward to working on the project and collaborating with the company.
  • Maureen Bennett (Co-Owner of EasyMove Students / www.easymovestudents.co.uk):
    We have been booked by EasyMove, a removable company for students to produce an advert for their commercial campaign. They are also conducting marketing and require our services for photography. We have been in good communications and been in discussion about arranging a contract to produce the media for the rest of their advertising.
  • Omer (Owner of Mono Bar / www.mono-bar.co.uk):
    We have covered the media for a couple of the events at Mono Bar and the relationship between us is at a good level, I look forward to continually providing them a quality service as we improve our production work.

I am very pleased with the amount of people I have met as a result of my time doing the professional experience and hope that we will all remain in contact; I believe that each person offers me a new dynamic to what I was previously used to. By utilising my social skills I will be able to build more connections and also improve myself as a producer of media.
