Emily

University College Birmingham

Prosthetics for Film and Television, MA

From 2016-2018 I studied Art, Photography and Psychology A-Levels at Princethorpe College, Rugby, and after not being too sure of what I wanted to study at university I decided to throw myself into full time employment. I then came across the Specialist Hair and Media Make-Up course here at University College Birmingham and applied in 2020. Moving cities during the pandemic was very strange, however I soon became very comfortable at The Maltings where I lived with the majority of my classmates. After three years of study, I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree and I have now moved onto studying Prosthetics for Film and Television MA. Alongside the masters degree, University College Birmingham gave me the opportunity to work for them as an intern in the Marketing Department as part of the masters internship bursary scheme, where my course is paid for in the form of 400 hours of work over the academic year (September-July), which has been a huge benefit for myself financially. I also work as a part time front of house team member at a restaurant in Birmingham city centre, I enjoy this job a lot as I get to interact with lots of different people, I also feel very accepted there as I am free to express myself with my piercings, tattoos and makeup. 

Robin

Southampton Solent University

BA (Hons) Film and Television

Hi! I'm Robin, a second-year BA (Hons) Film and Television student. I've had an interest in film for the past five years and wanted to learn more about how it’s made - and see if I could learn to make something myself. After graduation, I would love to get into A24, Blumhouse or Shudder in any role that would allow me to work on an actual horror movie, rather than just watching them. Outside of that, I am a big fan of Dungeons & Dragons. I’ve found a group I’ve been playing with since I got to uni, and I also run Solent’s society for it. I hope I can help you going forward!

University of East Anglia UEA

Film, Television and Media Studies

As a second-year Film and Television Studies student at UEA, I am passionate about visual storytelling and its cultural impact. My studies focus on film theory, production, and cinema history, while I also explore filmmaking and creative collaborations outside the classroom. I aim to pursue a career in film production or screenwriting. My academic foundation and creative drive inspire me to contribute to the evolving world of cinema. I’m eager to connect with like-minded individuals and explore opportunities that align with my passion for storytelling and filmmaking.
