My friends were coming here to study and when I had a look round I really liked the campus. It’s modern and sleek. 

Media is the closest course to film and I wanted to do something I was interested in. I like films because they are a different way of telling a story compared to books. I’d like to be a director for smaller, independent film production companies such as A24. I’m inspired by Steven Spielburg, Sam Raimi and Robert Zemeckis.

 I’ve never done media/film before but the teaching has been very supportive to make the transition into media easier.  

Don’t worry about leaving school – it’s worth it!
