I really enjoyed the workshop day, it exceeded all my expectations. Not only was it really fun and cool to take part in, it was also a great day of learning as well. I found it very interesting to watch how the combined efforts of different groups (makeup, sound, lighting, actors) came together to work like clockwork on the day in a very professional manner.
Some of my favourite things were working with old latymer students who are now very successful like Dom our Director and Jack. It was quite inspirational as a lot of people stigmatise the subject Media by saying its 'pointless' but they both seem to be getting a lot out of their careers and from being able to speak to them I found there are endless roads to go down with Media.
Another quite new experience was the makeup. I am generally not a very glamorous person, so being able to be made up by a professional make-up artist was a really funny experience but one which I enjoyed nevertheless.

Finally, personally I enjoyed the challenge of having to work more precisely to the camera which was out of my comfort zone because I'm more used to stage acting. I also enjoyed the big screens which allowed us to see through the cameras eyes and therefore understand the importance of blocking and how differently they could make a set up appear.
