I am Muhammad Sheikh. I have done MA Cinematography from Bournemouth University in November 2022 and Graduated in Film and TV production from the University of Wolverhampton in 2021. My interest in filmmaking has been since my childhood. While in school I had lunched my own You Tube channel “recklessnation.” It was prank channel in which I would upload my own produced pranks. Some of the pranks can still be found on You Tube. My channel attracted a large following from my school mates and others. However, the channel was closed down after three years as my passion as a You Tuber was transformed into Film and TV production. This upward trajectory in my attitude helped me adopt a professional line in Film and TV production. I took admission in Film and TV Production as an Undergrad student in the University of Wolverhampton. TThe most mesmerising and inspiring thing for me in the subject is that It let me encounter new challenges in every new project. There can not be any stereotyping. I really need to correctly visualise concept of the project and ensure creativity in a way which corroborates with customer’s concept using latest tools. While studying in the University, I started working as a volunteer runner with few of my friends doing business as freelancer. This helped me learn pre to post production techniques. Meanwhile, with a view to diversify my skills. I took admission in Escape Studio, Pearson College (London) in a 20 weeks Part time 2D VFX privately funded Foundation Course. Unfortunately, I could not complete the course since the college was closed down due to COVID 19 restriction imposed by the government. Nevertheless, I was able to gain valuable basic knowledge of the subject within 11 weeks of class attendance.In October 2021, I got admission in MA Cinematography in Bournemouth University which has recently been completed however, while studying I have been improving my skills in the field and made various Music Videos, Commercial and have done live coverage of sports and wedding events. I have recently covered the entire Bolton International Film Festival which is BAFTA and BFI approved event held from 05 to 09/10/22 as a Videographer on voluntary basis and have done post production work as well. The project has been an absolute success with a professionally produced Video of the event which has been highly acknowledged by the organisers of Bolton International Film Festival.
