I chose to study Fine and Applied Arts in Communications Design at Bangkok University for my Bachelor Degree but I was especially interested in the Video Production course, as it taught me how to produce documentaries, short films and advertisements. I deeply enjoyed this because I could acquire a great deal of knowledge and put it together into one project by arranging compositions, gathering ideas, writing scripts, making graphics, cutting and editing. This course also taught me how to deal with many problems during the film-making process.
For my work experience, I had an opportunity to work at Warner Music Thailand as Advertising Production Executive. My responsibilities were to design and develop all media used in Sales and Advertising. My work was divided into two types. First, I dealt with international artists, adapting files and footage from overseas to fit local use. Second, I dealt with local artists, thinking of concepts that suited the artist and developing artwork throughout production. I made logos, tape and CD covers, posters, and printed ads. I also wrote scripts by myself, recorded, edited and coordinated with the broadcasted station for TV spots and special TV programmes.
My interest developed further in media, especially in Film and Television through the Bridging Diploma for International Students at the Language Centre, Royal Holloway 2005-2006. In particular, I have had an opportunity to take one academic subject in the Media and Arts department which is called Critical Theory and Textual Analysis. This course gave me an opportunity to take part in lectures, and discuss film and television with native students in seminar discussions. In terms of content of this course I have learned much more about critical film and TV analysis and 'Orientalism and The King and I: An analysis of how the East is represented in 1950s Hollywood' is the title of my independent project from this course. All of these experiences are challenging me to improve myself and have also made me gain confidence in my ability to study in the UK.
