Major Project and Professional Practice

Having been given a clear idea of what is expected from us during this semester, I have secured a work placement in the Media Team at the Kent Fire and Rescue Service. I will be shadowing the audio visual officer during my time there. The role of audio visual officer means the person who is responsible for the filmmaking side of the media operations, so coming up with the ideas and so on. They are also responsible for the handling and use of all equipment belonging to the media department. 

Regarding the major project, I have chosen to go with an idea I first had for the documentary unit in our first year. I am planning to do a documentary on the problem of the lack of appropriate housing for people who have mobility issues thanks to a degenerative illness or an accident that has left them with reduced mobility.
