Top Tips for 1st Years

• Don't let a lot of work put you off a pathway choice, every pathway is difficult in its own way.
• Look at people's online journals if its your own year or years above.
• Try and meet up with a second or third year or get to know them, or email them to talk to you and help you out when you need it.
• Start looking for placements now to do over the summer of your first and second year because you won t have time in the third year.
• Try do as many external projects as possible because at some point you will need to make a showreel and your university work will not be enough, you need to show your keen and passionate.
• As soon as your told about a book you should be reading, go to the library that day as there are usually 2 or 3 copies and they will all be gone and people can re new books up to 9 times, unless you buy them, some are worth buying some aren't, talk to your lecturer on which ones are.
