Professional Practice

For this module I am going to be looking at Career Research and Self Promotion Portfolio.

I am going to be looking at:

Key questions that your research should establish are:

1. Who are my main competitors?
2. Who will buy my imagery or service?
3. What steps I must take to establish myself in my first years after graduation?
4. What skills I will need to develop prior to graduation?

A fully considered and strategic portfolio of promotion material:

  1. Standard or creative CV - with at least 2 earlier revisions, showing a clear progression in the development of your CV following advice from tutors and the Your Future Plan team.
  2. A selection of business cards reflecting your unique style and professional identity.
  3. A complete suite of business stationary ready for freelance work or self-employment, including the following: Invoice, Estimate, Licence and Model Release Form with consideration given to your branding and identity and structured for your business, which should remain consistent throughout.
