DISCLAIMER: I confirm that the attached portfolio is all of my own work and does not include any work completed by anyone other than myself. The film I have created for my final project is a coming-of-age film called 'Changes' and will be premiering at the Ufilms Film Festival on Thursday 24th June 2021. The film follows two best friends, Katie and Gemma, spending their final day together before Gemma moves away. This is a personal, comedy/drama, that discusses the themes of friendship, family, adolescence and growth/maturity. Since joining the Film and TV Production course at Stockton Riverside College in 2019, I have finally found my passion and love of writing and directing and this is something I want to continue and expand my knowledge on through my education and into, hopefully, my future career in the film industry.

In past projects, I have always had a tough time to keep calm and focus on production,  as well as finding it difficult to work around issues that come along and managing the time schedule. This is something I have struggled with and I didn't want to have these same problems and mindsets whilst filming, especially as this is my final, big project before leaving and going to university.
