FOR

CAREERS 2
Well, the current job market from 2022 has
increased by 75% ever since its increased
due to the lack of work people have been
missing out
Potential jobs I want to investigate and
why?
I would love to consider a position into
(D.O.P) – director of photography which
mainly the cinematographer in film and I
think its an interesting pick to go in in the
future it seems right up my ally as ive been
experimenting with film the past year.
I would love to get a job into retail as well it
seems very chill and manageable for me,
and I think I could do it with all the skills I
have acquired over college and working
with my father’s business.
3. Job options I'm looking at - YouTube

A potential job I could get and I'm building upon is youtube.com I already
have content been placed on the site already it’s a such a diverse site that I
feel safe and comfortable on and you can make money from it if I go down
that route ofYouTube. It’s something I have thought about it for a while
making content tailored to me would be a dream come true but with that
comes the massive risk of failing and keeping content in line.YouTube
depending on the user can mean the line between on income and income it
can and shown to be inconsistent for many people and I would be taking on
a risk if I wanted to go down the path of making my career solely off
YouTube which can be dangerous because you don’t get a set wage/amount
of money per work it depends on so many and potential inconsistent factors
that would be risky to determine.
4. Job options I'm looking at - Twitch

Another potential job I've been looking at isTwitch.Twitch is a another
online site that offers job for millions of people through ‘streaming’ and
through my life one of my dreams and still is to grow a potential
platform and form a job through stream whether that’s gaming,
cooking or just general hobbies. But with twitch it comes risks of
whether you make money and that can be risky to throw myself into. I
will say it’s a safer option to consider because of becoming a ‘Twitch
partner’ is safer and more promising through twitch I can open myself
to digital creation and creating a fanbase that is tailored to me and I can
earn money through that.Twitch is different enough fromYouTube that
I could potentially look for that as a job but it would be a lot of
commitment and I would be taking risks nonetheless through each
‘online’ website.

Another Job I have been looking into is a place I've been working at
currently as a ‘student’ help thing I work due to a course
management term where I work there for a certain duration and its
been great I've experimented with expensive cameras and more I've
learnt so much being there its really fun to experiment with
promotion and social media publishing. I'm continuing to work there
and it’s a good environment and hopefully in the future I can land a
potential job there because I'm actively looking to be there more
and when I can I learn and just fit right in. After my work placement
time ends there is a good chance that they might offer me a job
there so media savvy is a great and another potential option for me.
I really enjoy filming there and learning how to promote and edit
through photoshop so if it a potential offer came through I would
jump at the opportunity.

In my first two job search I wouldn’t actually need much in terms of
qualifications but I would need good qualities in handling cameras and
content creation. This would be vital because of its easy nature to make
content if I'm not good at it then im essentially working for free and that
wont be good for many reasons.
For the job at media savvy I would properly need experience with the
demographic of holding cameras and editing skills, luckily I have those so its
not a problem, I might also need some and certain qualifications.
Nonetheless I would need to consider time and effort throughout any jobs.
AlsoYouTube and Twitch aren’t located anywhere its through online so that
would quite easy to manage for work. As for media savvy its in the
Sunderland town so from me its not that far and hard to get there so that
also wouldn’t be a problem since its quite local and close to me from where I
live.
Qualifications I might need for employment
