Why I chose media?

I chose media as an option because it sounded fun and interesting. I also had a friend who done media last year and she told me good things about media, so I picked it.  Also my friend done a little clip for media and it looked amazing, so I thought I should choose this year. I happen to like taking and editing photos. I saw front covers of magazines around the school what the media students created it looked brilliant and fun to try out myself. In media studies I’m hoping to achieve the best grade I can. I’m also good with working in a group and in media studies I will get lots of opportunities to work with others.
I am looking forward to creating my own video/clips to all the teens out there. I Hope to achieve a good grade. Im also creative in many ways.
