1. UNIT 9
WHAT I PLAN TO DO NEXT

2. University course
I have found 3 different courses out of 5 in the university of arts in London I have chosen them to suit what types of photography that I like and find most interesting they are: fashion photography, photojournalism and commercial photography

3. Commercial photography – The university of arts london

You need a level passes at grace c or above some of the subjects that are preferred for this are art, design, fashion, media studies and obviously photography thi scouse like the other is 3 years at £9,250

6. Career paths instead of/after university
Running a photography business (financial and marketing) also doing the photograph and editing and printing as well and depending on how successful it may become hiring other staff to do certain jobs and potentially growing the business into a relatively big company doing all different types for photography going from weddings to concerts and gigs
Working for an already established photographic company and doing what ever role you applied for and got.
Working for news agencies big and small
Free lance photography for different magazines news outlets can be good for experience and can also be good financial incomes sometimes if you get the right photo but its not the most stable of careers because you wont always get the right picture that earns a good amount of money
Having a good portfolio is good for applying for any of these jobs because companies want to see that you are actually capable of what you are saying that you do and proving it
