Find out about that industry. What jobs roles are available? What skills do people
need to work in that industry? What level of education is needed? How diverse, or
not, is the industry?
We want some good facts and figures that you can take and then use in your
illustrated guide.
Write down the information that you find, and keep a record of where you found it.
It’s best to get lots of research, and then pick the most useful information from that.

15. •Steven Spielberg – American Film Director. Steven Allan
Spielberg is an American film director, producer, and
screenwriter. He is considered one of the founding pioneers of
the New Hollywood era and one of the most popular directors
and producers in film history. Spielberg started in Hollywood
directing television and several minor theatrical releases.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Spielberg
•Spielberg was born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1948. His father was
an electrical engineer who contributed to the development of
computer circuitry and tape data recording. Because of his
father’s work experience, the family moved around frequently
when Spielberg was a child, eventually settling in California.
•After completing High School, Spielberg could not get into film
school because of his grades. Instead, he attended California
State University, Long Beach, where he studied English. During
this time he interned at Universal Studios in the editing
department. As part of this opportunity he was allowed to make
a short film. That film, called ‘Amblin was later entered into the
1969 Atlanta Film Festival.
Spielberg's first major directorial effort was The
Sugarland Express (1974), with Goldie Hawn, a film
that marked him as a rising star. It was his next
effort, however, that made him an international
superstar among directors: Jaws (1975).
Spielberg uses zooms and fluid camera movement
to shift shot composition throughout a single
camera setup. It switches from a full shot, to a
medium shot, to a medium close, to a long shot,
and back to medium close — all without cutting.
“Every time I go to a movie, it's magic, no matter
what the movie's about.”
“Why pay a dollar for a bookmark? Why not use the
dollar for a bookmark?”
“All of us every single year, we're a different person.
I don't think we're the same person all our lives.”
Practitioner Fact file – Steven Spielberg
17. What are you currently doing to pursue a career in your chosen field?
The course I am currently taking is the start of the right way to go if I want to work in
film, it is a good way if gaining early knowledge and experience for the future. In the first
year we are doing multiple things to see what is right and where we would like to
proceed in learning, and I think I will go on to do filming and editing in the second year.
18. What do you plan to do next in the pursuit of your chosen field?
After my two years at college I am planning on going to either university, to do a film
studies course, or to film school, to pursue filmmaking and editing. If I am able to do
so, I would preferably do work experience somewhere very senior to see what it
would be like to really be in the industry, and try to build my way up to the same
level.
19. Select at least three potential University courses that would help you further your career aims. You should state
what the course is, which university it is run by, the entry requirements and why you think it would help you.
Bristol University – Film And Television - The standard requirement for our courses is three
A-levels (or equivalent qualifications)
Canterbury Christ Church – Film production – A typical offer would be 88-112 UCAS Tariff
points.
Falmouth University – Film BA - Most courses require 260-300 UCAS entry points, but they
also accept equivalent Level 3 qualifications or relevant experience.
20. What type of work experience do you think you would need to help you in your future career? How might you
be able to find work experience placements? If you could pick anywhere to do work experience, where would it
be and why?
Doing work experience with a big company such as 20th century fox or universal
studios would be a big step and very helpful towards a career in film, it would be
helpful in the future as well when applying to further education and eventually a job.
The only problem with this is that I think it would be very difficult to get a placement
as there would be very high demand as it is a big name.
I also have connections to a video game and film producing company so I would most
likely be able to get a work placement here, it is called Eedar and is located in San
Diego, America.
21. What specific skills do you need to develop? There should be a mix of industry specific skills and also personal
development points. When you identify these, come up with suggestions as to how you might make those
improvements.
If I wish to continue my chosen career, I will need to develop filming skills, editing skills
and most likely photoshop skills – to further develop my filming skills I can take time to
go out and film and create something such as a short film or a music video, this links in
with the editing skills as I would be able to film, and then import all my video and edit
them into premiere pro, and if I were to do this multiple times it would create a
portfolio to show all of my previous work, which could help in the future when
applying for a job in the film industry.
I think it would be helpful to have good photoshop skills also because it helps me to
show knowledge in a wider range of programs whether than just one.
22. In 5 years time I will…
In 5 years' time I will have completed my course at York College, and a course in
film and television at a university and the year after I hope to have a job with a
high level film producing company, in this time I will have done work experience
for a few months and whilst being there learnt new skills and further developed by
skills that I will need to have in my future.
24. Task 4: Music Video Process Log [2.1, 2.2]
Complete the Music Video Process Log to evidence how you worked technically
during the Music Video production phase. Screenshot and explain how you managed
to get your production finalised.
There is a specific pro forma that you will use for this as part of your music video
production. Ensure that is completed with your Music Video project, to complete this
task.
26. Task 5: End of Year Review [2.1, 2.2, 3.1, 3.2]
Produce an end of year review looking at how you have worked across the year,
considering each stage of production, which productions have worked/not worked,
how you have managed your time, what skills you have developed, how you have
worked with others and how you organised your time, resources and equipment
throughout the year. You should then produce an action plan for Year 2 selecting 5
key areas you wish to focus on to develop further.
Complete the following slides to review your year. You can add images if you want to.
You can get screenshots from any part of your previous projects to support your work
on this.
