I am going to do a SWOT Analysis on me to outline my strengths and weaknesses. Hopefully this will help show where I need to improve on my practice and what I can do to the best of my abilities.
Strengths:
- My resources are that I go to university and they have many softwares that are used in the industry which I can make use of by doing as much as I can to improve my skills on them. The software is Maya, Adobe Premiere, After Effects.
- I have a laptop which allows me send emails and do research so that is how I use this resource to my advantage if I have a problem to solve or people to contact in the industry.
- Surrounded by like-minded people that I can ask for help
- I have many ideas that I want to fulfil and I am enthusiastic about getting them out there.
Weaknesses:
- My time management skills and work ethic. Less procrastination and more action.
- Should minimise distractions such as music, TV or social networking sites for recreational properties
- Not being pro- active by looking for opportunities
Opportunities:
- Taking use of festivals and conferences to further my knowledge and business contacts.
- Aware of trending software in different parts of the media industry
- More Visual effects are being used in films and adverts.
- Competitions in my field of interest
Threats:
- Competing with other like-minded people who may be doing exactly what I'm doing
- Different software in industry changing all the time and keeping up to date and what to improve on and what to not look into is a hard decision
- Money issues that do not allow me to fund projects or affect my motivation
- Websites and tutorials allow you learn industry techniques so wasting time affects my career prospects.
Below is my SWOT diagram which allows me to look at these points but change stuff around if needed.
