Career Project I

About Me…..

• Lifestyle Choices-Independence and Achievement

A big part of my life is being independent and not having to lean on others for support. Its not pride, but knowing that you can live on your own not needing the support of anyone else. Relying on somebody can lead to them controlling what you do in life. Achievement is also a very important life choice to me. Having a job in which I know I have accomplished something important that can help people is an amazing feeling.

• Learning Style- Visual learner Being a visual learner means that I am more comfortable learning by seeing it being accomplished in front of me. This isn't saying that seeing is the only way I can learn but just that it’s easier and faster.

About Me…..

• Work Values-Integrity Being surrounded by people not only that you trust but that are loyal and trust worth is healthy. I would enjoy being in a job in which I feel I'm around mature adults. • Unique Qualities- Fast learner

Many people don’t believe me when I tell them this but absolutely love to learn. I am fond of the idea that there are so many things someone can accumulate into there brains. But this must also be because I am very competitive, hens the reason why I do track and field. This quality is what makes it harder for me to decide what career I want to have in the future because I can do any job because I will learn it fast and put all I have into it. Math, Science, Language and History I enjoy doing all those subjects.

Film Director • What Do They Do-

A film's director is involved in every basic stage of its production. Being a director requires the ability to visualize how a script will be acted out, and the perseverance to see a long-term project through to the end. It’s an incredibly demanding job and one that requires creative vision, strong leadership and the ability to be a consummate storyteller. As such, the director must visualize and define the style and structure of the film and then bring this vision to reality. A director’s main duties include casting, editing scripts and composing, selecting and editing shots. Directors must also be aware of the constraints of budget and schedule. Ultimately, directors are responsible for the artistic and commercial success or failure of a film or television show (continue).

• What Do They Do- Aside from possessing creative vision, directors must also understand the entire filmmaking process, which includes technical know-how. Attention to detail, the ability to remain calm and rational under pressure and be a strong leader as well as a team player are key skills for this job. Since there is so much responsibility involved with the job of being a director, it requires the ability to know when and what to delegate to others. Many times that’s where the assistant director comes in.
