Hi! I'm Yolanda, a film-maker/ freelance media person and this website is a portfolio of some of my work along with CV that should hopefully get me more work :)
In June 2009 I graduated with a first class honours degree in Media Practice from the University of the west of England, where I specialised in Producing and Project Management. One of my films, "Footsteps" has now been screened in three cinemas in Bristol, including the Cube for the Compass of Desire film festival and the Arnofini for the student section of Encounters film festival. Another of my films, "Greenlands", recently made the local news with the headline "Film documents farm's special place in history".
As a production assistant, I have worked for a variety of companies, including: award winning documentary production company, "Icon Films", popular American TV show, “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” and for one of England’s leading Advertising production companies, “Happy Hour productions”. Thriving in the production office as I enjoy research and have a natural ability to plan and schedule, this year I have also been doing Asset Management for "Smile-On E-learning" and have a couple editing jobs due to start in March 2010.
Being dual nationality, British and American, I am looking at film, television and multi-media industries on both sides of the water to help develop my career in Project Management.
