· An explanation of your future career direction (what sector and what you need to do to begin to break into it???) -The career direction I want to go into is advertisement, I want to do shoots for companies for them to use as ads, to do this I will need to build my portfolio. I will need to shoot images that will apply to it so that there is a link from my portfolio and the jobs I am looking for. I will also need to get my name out there, which will mean I should be active on social media and if I do shots and upload them, tag companies so that they can see the shots I am taking and make them different to stand out from other photographers. In the main time being an photographer assistant might help me see how fast I will need to be and what it will be like working for a company.
