- 20. Academic History Write a short paragraph about subjects you’ve already studied at school/college that have helped prepare you for your chosen courses at University- level 2 or GCSE level. What did you make? What skills did you learn? Why did this make you want to progress on and study further etc. • I studied Creative Digital Media at Tadcaster Grammar School before studying it at York College, studying this at Tadcaster and York has helped me understand how to use a computer as a creative tool • At Tadcaster, I have created a website, a video to promote the school and a few 3D models of different buildings • At York College, I have created 2 video game animations, a music video which I regret making, a magazine, a video advert for Irn-Bru and a small audio book • I also studied Computer Science which helped me understand how computers work
- 21. Current Study Talk about this course- Extended Diploma in Creative Media Production and Technology. Reference how it has helped you prepare for your chosen courses at University. What did you make? What skills did you learn? Why did this make you want to progress on and study further etc. Reference specific projects and software/hardware that you are familiar with. • At the moment, I study creative digital media in York College which has helped me understand what I can do with programs like Photoshop and Premiere Pro • I have created multiple animations using Photoshop and Premiere Pro so I can create some animations using pixel art but with some time, I can learn to do better animations with more detailed images
- 22. The Future What do you want to do in the future (ensure it is related to the subjects you are applying for). How will university help you to achieve that? • I mostly wish to continue studying digital media in Canada, so I have an excuse to go back to my true home and be away from my problems in England • I wish to be able to say, "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" as my job
- 23. Outside College What do you do outside college? Any hobbies, part time jobs, client work, volunteer work? How does this make you a better candidate for university study? • When outside of college, I enjoy playing video games (favourites include Mortal Wombat and Dad of Boy) • I try to go for a small run every weekend so I can get my exercise and stop my heart from exploding • I also enjoy watching movies (favourites include most movies from the Marvel Cinematic Universe) • I watch a lot of different anime in my spare time like Death Note and Dragon Ball Z • On special occasions like Christmas, I like to wear fun party suits that help me stand out from the crowd, this makes me a better candidate because they are fun to wear, and it helps me stand out from the crowd • During the last summer holidays, I spent around half of it with the National Citizen Service where I spent the weeks traveling to different areas like France and York University, and helping other people and spreading awareness of mental health in Selby
- 24. Conclusion Summarise why you want to go to university. What will it help you achieve? Why are you a good candidate? Keep it short and to the point. • I believe that I am a good candidate because I am able to stand out from the crowd • I can become friends with a lot of different people since I am easy to talk to and approach • I can easily get on with my work and focus on whatever project I am doing until it is finished
- 25. Introduction Brief introduction referencing what subject/s (keep general if necessary) you are applying for and briefly why you want to go to university. • I wish to apply for any course that has any sort of game designing or developing because I enjoy playing games and seeing different game/character designs
