Think I'm a tad late to this but 2020 has been pretty varied for me work-wise and I want to share some of my favourite bits I've done! [Thread]
Started off the year working for Premier League Productions on (mostly) short-form content as part of my apprenticeship - for rights-related reasons I can't share the pieces I made but visiting some of the London grounds was a real highlight!
I started getting braver with my writing and had my first ever paid commission with the wonderful @filmstoriespod before working hard to improve my writing over lockdown & helping to found @empowordjournos! https://empowordjournalism.com/blog/reaction-dominic-cummings-or-dominic-goings/
This led to much more pitching until finally, the @Independent let me write about TikTok for them! https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/tiktok-ban-us-trump-china-pop-culture-dance-music-celebrity-a9653131.html
A big moment this year was getting accepted onto the @spectator internship scheme. I loved working with them in the summer and have been freelancing for their broadcast team since. This 'Women with Balls' episode was a surprise favourite edit for me! https://twitter.com/katyballs/status/1337765540107087874?s=20
It's been amazing seeing how SpectatorTV has grown too - I've enjoyed getting more familiar with After Effects and Premiere Pro to help to edit the digital side of things! https://twitter.com/spectator/status/1337683610128719873?s=20/video/1
Really grateful to have been given the opportunity to write for @spectator too. This piece on the perils of being called Alexa is my favourite I've written! https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/-no-i-won-t-tell-you-the-weather-today-the-trouble-with-being-called-alexa
Very lucky to have stayed on at IMG whilst wrapping up my apprenticeship. Never expected to find a passion for basketball but, thanks to the @EuroLeague team, here we are! Can't wait to get working on some features for them in the new year
And to top off a busy year, the #FETalentCall with @FIAFormulaE was an absolutely incredible experience and it was fantastic to do some more presenting in a sport I love! https://twitter.com/FIAFormulaE/status/1339326911919628289?s=20/video/1
A huge thank you to everyone who's helped me and believed in me this year! I've tried a lot of new things in my work and I'm so grateful for the opportunities I've had - here's to whatever 2021 may hold!
