      My responsibilities were to oversee the running of a Morning club at a Primary School. I would run the session, which teaches Drama and Literacy to the pupils. While these sessions have to be fun, it is my responsibility to look after the children and to make sure I am providing the best educational content possible.

      Mill Green Museum had a project called Saving the 70's http://www.welhat.gov.uk/article/5639/Saving-the-70s-Project which was a celebration of culture in the Welwyn-Hatfield area in the 70's. I was the leader of a small team looking to find local footage in the area to make a short film to play in the Museum on the event day. We secured the footage and I edited it together and delivered it to the Museum. I had to manage a team and successfully met the Museums deadline. The footage can be viewed upon request. Show less

      My responsibilities included working and maintaining SYFN's website, and helping out where I was needed, which required versatility. Some days we would be photographing for websites, others would require us to run a film making competition, 2Weeks2MakeIt. This required organisation and good communication skills. I looked after the equipment, and made sure things ran as smoothly as possible.
