University of East Anglia UEAFilm, Television and Media StudiesHi ! I’m Tiffany, a third year undergraduate student at UEA. I am currently studying Film and Television. I would be happy to answer all your questions about my school, my studies, student life or help with anything else. 😊 Abigail
Bournemouth UniversityBA (Hons) FilmHi, I'm Abigail and I'm a second-year Film student! I'd be very happy to answer anything about filmmaking and media related questions at Bournemouth University, and what its like to move out for the first time and settle into a new city! :)) Arron
Staffordshire UniversityFilm and MediaI'm currently going into my final year of Film Production with the long term goal of creating my own production company with friends and I've brought my 2 cats along to uni Daisy
Coventry UniversityMA Communication, Culture and MediaHiya, My name is Daisy. I'm on my 4th year now at Coventry University studying Communication, Culture and Media. I have loved my time here, and it's been so refreshing existing in such a welcoming space as a trans woman. For my future plans, my aim is to smash my masters and then move to the Netherlands to study a PhD focusing on gender in esports. Exciting stuff!! Daria
University of the Arts LondonIllustration and Visual MediaHi there! I'm Daria, and I'm aspiring to be an illustrator and graphic designer with a focus on children's book illustrations. My dream is to have my own studio where I can bring creative projects to life. As a third-year student at LCC in University of Arts in London, I'm honing my skills in illustration for visual media. Outside of my studies, I'm a big fan of reading, watching classic films, and exploring London for cozy coffee spots. I also have a deep appreciation for art history and love spending time in galleries. I'm excited to share my experiences as a newcomer to London and offer insights on overcoming the challenges of starting something new in a foreign country. Let's connect! James
Bournemouth UniversityBA (Hons) Media ProductionI am a (by definition only) mature student studying Media Production. I spent my career in retail and hospitality. I lived in New Zealand for three years running a hotel/hot pool resort in a remote part of the South Island. I returned to England just before the pandemic took hold, reflecting on what direction I wanted my life to go in, I made the decision to follow my passions and applied to University. Bournemouth University is amazing! I have already been granted so many opportunites, and it is one of the most inclusive environments I have evert been a part of. James
University of LincolnMedia (including by practice) - MPhil/PhDOver the past 9 years, I've been deeply involved in performing arts, where I've explored theatre, dance, and singing. These experiences have taught me a lot about expressing myself and have built my confidence a lot. Now, I'm excited to explore the world of media and acting in the future. I'm drawn to the idea of bringing characters to life on screen and telling stories in new ways. Combining my background in performing arts with this new adventure feels like the perfect next step. Whilst studying I have also gained an extra passion for radio which has broadened my skillset, and my course has really allowed me to hone my skills and a whole bunch of new ones. Along with all this I have met a lot of amazing people and been very comfortable studying. Kaitlyn
University of South WalesBA (Hons) TV and Film Set DesignMy name is Kaitlyn and I’m a TV and Film Set Design student! I am especially interested in working on sets as standby art department or props! I really love the fast paced, ‘hands on’ parts of being on set!! I am happy to help if you have any questions about set design or student life!! Marina

Bournemouth UniversityBA (Hons) Media ProductionHi, my name is Q and I am a Media Production Student. I have always loved the visual arts and management, so have spent a vast amount of my time dancing, managing my film and photography and also volunteering at my local prestigious museum. At Uni I have wanted to keep that up, so joined Dance Society and I also take part in Nerve Radio which is so much fun, but I am also gaining experience as I am considering working in radio in the future, and to produce my own films.
