ANSWERS
I am a media student at Weston college. I am a contentious and
sociable individual with a meticulous approach to tasks not being able
to rest until each job is done to the best of my ability.
1. I would say my biggest strength is my adaptability and my being
able to think quickly when put in difficult situations.
2. My biggest weakness I would have to say is that I have a very “if you
want something done right do it yourself’ approach to some things so I
sometimes struggle a bit in group projects however I have been
working to improve on this by putting myself in situations when I am
not the leader and learning to take a back seated approach in tasks
when I know other people understand the task better than me.
3. A time when I had to overcome a problem was when lockdown hit
we had a project organised to film however because of the restrictions
we weren’t able to. I overcame this by filming it as much as I can by
myself and I am proud of how the project turned out.
4. I would want to work in the media industry because the whole field
has always fascinated me and I love films and making films.
