Evaluation of Development of Practical Skills Across Course

Throughout this year I believe I have been able to learn a variety of practical skills which will benefit me when working in a professional environment. I have been able to evidence communication with my clients, completing health and safety protocols, setting up lighting and camera equipment to a standard acceptable to a client, completing promotional work to a standard acceptable to a client, completed all pre-production and idea generating work to a standard acceptable to a client and I have also justified my design methods across all the units I have undertaken.  Communicating with Client When completing units which involve completing work for a client I made sure to deal with the unit in a professional manner as if I was working in a professional environment.

The next section is productions, the sections contains all actions I must take in relation to shooting the video for example, finding equipment, actors and props needed, shooting the video, watching footage back and shooting more footage if n...

The main assumption within psychoanalysis is that human beings possess unconscious thoughts, feelings, desires and memories. A main area of study in psychoanalysis is dreams, our dreams can reflect a lot about each individuals subconscious mind which could be key to understanding ourselves and society around us. How does Freud use Psychoanalysis?

Even though a media product may not have been directly influenced by Freud's methods we ...
