I have been networking with Liz Hall from Liz Henson Photography, working alongside her at some of the jobs she has been doing such as Rossendale Business Awards, Hyndburn Business Awards, Ribble Valley Business Awards and many more.
I have networked with Sophie Sveinsson who works on XS Radio Manchester, I filmed and edited a promotional video for The Urban Playground in Manchester working under the name of XS Radio Manchester.
I networked with a local primary school to do some work for them on multiple occasions and they now contact directly with us students rather than through the college.
I have also worked for Burnley Social to photograph the UCLAN Freshers event at Illuminati Bar where I took the position of lead photographer for the night with another student shadowing me.
I have been networking with the Burnley College Esports team to produce videos and photographs for them to use on their social media. I also have been helping them set up streams which are broadcasted onto the Burnley College Esports twitch and the official Burnley football club twitch page.
I connected with Liz Hall from Liz Henson Photography on Facebook and after speaking for a while about my interest in photography and my skill with photography, she asked me to join her on some of her jobs. With Liz, I have been an assistant photographer, I have taken captions for the press and I have also been the press photographer. I have attended many awards ceremonies with Liz, some of these being Rossendale Business Awards, Ribble Valley Business Awards, Hyndburn Business Awards and many more. I have also photographed some work Christmas parties alongside Liz.
I connected with Sophie through college. The first piece of work that I did with her was producing some work for XS Manchester promoting The Urban Playground in Manchester, this took place on one of the press days for the attraction. Sophie and the team at XS loved the work that we produced and then asked us to do more work for them, we then did work to help promote The Chocolate Factory at The Trafford Centre. At this point, we gained access to speak directly to Sophie through WhatsApp and she began to come directly to us with work opportunities. The next job that she gave us was for The Manc, this was to do some video work at The National Football Museum and then also some video work at The Manchester Art Gallery. This again went very well and we got asked to do more work for them, the next piece of work that we did for Sophie was to take to the streets of Manchester doing Vox Pops of members of the public for The A-Z of XS. Sophie now comes to a team of students including me whenever there is any video work that the radio needs!
I connected with Burnley Social through college. I got asked to photograph an event as it was a last-minute event and the tutors knew that I had experience doing event photography in the past. I was the lead photographer for the night, photographing the UCLAN University Freshers Event at Illuminati Bar in Burnley. I have been told by the person I spoke to (Luke) that if there is any work that they need in the future they will be back in contact with me. I also worked with Luke from Burnley Social for the Burnley Means Business event at Burnley College.
