Dear Sir/Madam,

It would be appreciated if you could take a look at my CV which is attached to this document. I am writing to you in regards to any vacant opportunities for the role of a runner for Sky Sports News. I am a recent graduate of City of Westminster College and have a 'Distinction' grade in Level 3 Creative Media Productions.

I am a young, exuberant graduate who shares a passion for Television and Sport. I would describe myself as a media 'addict' who is obsessed with TV shows varying from Documentaries, Entertainment, Music and Sport.

My previous experiences include working for banking firms where I was summoned the task of filing and organising company names and clients in limited time, and also assisting my supervisor with lifting and unloading paper work and machines such as printers and other devices.
It is a rarity and very unconventional of me to be below par on aspects such as attendance and punctuality - Statistically speaking, I'm never lower than 98% attendance which exemplifies my determination and enthusiasm.

I portray myself as an educated, formal figure in the work place and I would relish the opportunity to acquire a vast array of skills and attributes for me to accentuate 100% satisfaction for you, the employer. My goal is to acquire vast amounts of experience whilst simultaneously upholding the representation of the company and then to make it bigger and more profitable.

Please find an attached copy of my CV

Mini Doc Script (LUCY REESE)

The Human Centipede 2 had been denied a rating but has now been rated 18 after its distributor agreed to 32 cuts.

BBFC president Sir Quentin Thomas said many would find it "difficult" to watch but that the cut film could "properly be classified at the adult level".

Two minutes and 37 seconds have been removed ahead of its DVD release.
The BBFC said the cuts "address all the concerns raised when the board refused a classification" in June.

Those concerns, it went on, included those "relating to sexual violence, graphic gore and the possibility of breach of the law relating to obscenity".
One of the BBFC's vice-presidents, Gerard Lemos, felt the film remained unclassifiable and abstained from the board's collective decision

How the BBFC works
 

It is important that the BBFC’s classification standards are in line with what the public expects and that its decisions take account of what the public finds acceptable at each age category.


Therefore every 4-5 years, the BBFC carries out a major public consultation exercise to find out what the public thinks about the age rating of films and videos before they are released and whether the BBFC’s classification standards meet public concerns.

The BBFC adjusts its standards and criteria in response to any changes in public attitudes.

These standards are laid out in the BBFC’s Classification Guidelines which can be downloaded below. The Guidelines detail what is acceptable at each age category, from U to R18. They also set out the laws and principles which impact on the BBFC’s work.

There are two key principles which guide us when we apply the Guidelines:

§  First, films and videos should be allowed to reach the widest audience appropriate for their theme and treatment.

§  Second, adults should be free to choose what they see, provided it remains within the law and is not potentially harmful.

THE BAN RAISED

A sequel to 2009's The Human Centipede, it tells of a man who, inspired by the first film, attempts to replicate its bizarre people-grafting experiments.

Eureka Entertainment, the film's UK distributor, said they were "really pleased" that an agreement had been reached but felt "slight disappointment" that cuts had been required.
However, continued its sales director Ian Sadler: "We feel that the storyline has not been compromised and the level of horror has been sustained."

A total of 11 films have been banned in Britain since the BBFC - formerly the British Board of Film Censors - was set up in 1912.

Grotesque, a 2009 Japanese horror film, was the last film to be refused a classification in the UK.

TRANSCRIPT FOR SPEECH PACKAGE (JAMES)

Transcript of Interview with Michael:

Omid

 - "What is YouTube success to you?"

Michael

- "As with all YouTubers, the main objective of any account is to get as many subscribers as possible, but it's not just about that, it's also about trying to be as entertaining as possible for all your viewers because at the end of the day, it's a median out there to entertain and inform people so I use to it as a platform to entertain my viewers and as long a i'm doing that, i'm doing my job."

Omid

- "What inspired you to be a YouTuber?"

Michael 

- "Before I got into the whole YouTube realm, I always wanted to entertain people, and then when I discovered YouTube about 6 years I was overwhelmed by the support some of my favourite YouTubers got. For example, very well known people such as PewDiePie, KSI, ComedyShortsGamers. They all got massive amounts of support through their Q&A sessions online and I just thought that this is something that I want to have. I want to interact with the people that like and support my videos through this kind of median without the restrictions that you get through print or TV. There's no actual link with you and you're viewers, whereas through YouTube, you can directly get involved with you're fans and viewers through unfiltered access."

Omid

- "What videos do you publish onto your channel to attract viewers and subscribers?"

Michael

- "Well, I try to attract a broad range of audience so my main focus is playing video games such as Call of Duty, Battlefield and FIFA now and then but my main focus is on first-person shooters, but i mean it's not just that I like to post videos of rants of the things that bother us all. You know, some people just need to hear what you have to say, even if they don't want to hear it. Get it off your chest and my viewers seem to be interested in that and like what I have to say because i'm and teenager and i'm guessing the vast majority of my viewers are teenagers, and we all have the same problems and we can all relate to them."

Strengths and Weaknesses of 2 Channel Idents



Strengths

1). Colours and Brightness
2). Music Used
3). Narration
4). Lengths

The colours and brightness seems as if they have been altered to add to the 'summer-time' expression of ambience. I think the narration adds to informative aspect of ITV's ident reminding the viewer whats next on the channel and in this instance, its the Football, which explains the concept of the ident.
I also think another aspect of the Ident that I thought was positive was the length of the Ident which I thought was short and precise.

Weaknesses

1). Font Colour

I thought the font colour was a severe weakness due to the font blending with the background picture of the Liner painting the grass. The minority of viewers might be visually impaired will find it difficult to understand and read of what channel they're on. 



Strengths:

1). Versatility
2). Colourful Representation
3.) Slogan
3.) Promoting Other Sports

One of the aspects of the Sky Sports ident that I thought was creative and versatile, was the various different application of different media platforms of which you were be able to watch various sports on, in "stunning HD". Another impressive aspect was the colourful representations of the Sky Sports News' logo such as the implementation of the colours of red and blue continuously throughout the advert. I also thought the slogan was powerful and imposing upon the viewers perception of what "home of sports news" is because of Sky Sport News forcing it upon you that Sky Sports News is the first channel you go to for all your sports news. It seemed that they had displayed a lot of different sports onto different media platforms. All of this is mentioned in a 19 second ident.
