I am Kayleigh Gazzard, a 17 year old student. I am a huge fan of anything Music, any genre. Music is my biggest passion. Coming off from that, I also love musical theatre, and hope to pursue a career in Music or Musical Theatre. I started a YouTube channel about a year ago, because I thought it was exciting and I'd never done something like it before. I found it hard, it took a lot more work then I expected it too, and I gave up on Vlogs. I'm hoping in the future to start singing and putting music videos on YouTube, as this is something I feel I would really enjoy.
My favourite actress is Jennifer Lawrence. When she's talking to the Media, she's completely down to earth, and she fangirls over some of her icons, probably not even realising how much of an icon she is to people. She also fully embraces her acting, she's not acting as her characters, she becomes them, and I fully believe she is that character.
I like watching a wide variety of films, but my favourite genre is probably musical theatre or comedy films. I loved the recent film of Les Miserables because it was the only musical theatre film where the actors were singing live as they were acting and filming, and I think it's an amazing film for being able to accomplish that.
I currently take Music and Drama at A-Level and decided to pick up Media as an AS level because I thought it was a good link for my two other subjects and it will also help with my YouTube. My YouTube channel has given me a lot of experience in editing videos, syncing music recorded on a microphone onto clips recorded on a camera, and it has also increased my confidence on putting videos I've created online.
By doing Media I hope to gain more of an understanding of the Media and Film industry, as well as develop my own skills creating videos. I hope to learn to edit on Mac's rather than a PC, as I feel the software is more advanced and will make a better video.
