Transferable skills I have already learnt:

• Planning skills
• Creative skills
• Communication

These skills I have learnt will be useful for media studies. From doing GCSE photography it has helped me to be more organized and creative throughout my work although there is still room for improvement. I think that by doing media studies it will help me improve these skills further, especially because media studies is a very creative subject so this will help to develop my creative skills. My planning skills have improved more by doing photography as planning what steps to do next and what our themes would lead us onto was important.

The skills I would like to improve are:

• Technology skills
• Organization
• Time management

These skills above need improving as its easy to get behind and I don’t always use my time as wisely as I should. I also think that by doing media studies it will allow me to improve and develop my technical skills, such as using different software.
