STATEMENT
Short Version
An inspiring digital media content
designer and a communication
professional with a passion and Love
for digital communication. My personal
interest is to produce unique and
creative “Likeable Media” for
individuals and businesses that are
capable of powerfully engage with the
audience.
Long Version
I was fascinated with Multimedia contents which was around me
since I was a kid. I always enjoyed these media contents and when it
was the time to decide what I want to do for the rest of my life, I
chose Digital Media.
I started my journey by starting to learn digital media following UK
higher National diploma in interactive media and went on to
complete Bachelors degree in Digital Media at University of
Wolverhampton.
I was not satisfied just by designing static media contents and
started to learn other visual mediums such as film and animation. I
have been working with several production houses for their projects
and some of them were able to win and nominate for awards. I also
worked as a freelance video director and editor.
I have been learning and working in different areas from Wedding
video production to Web designing. Hence I have been able to gain
knowledge about different types of mediums.
I believe that continues learning and practicing is the key to a
successful career and therefore I am completing a masters degree in
advertising at RMIT which is expanding my knowledge about the
advertising industry.
